First off, you ought to recognize that ADO is short for the Autobuses de Oriente bus firm. Regrettably, they do not cover all of Mexico. However, if you intend on taking a trip in Mexico City or anywhere south of that, then ADO is the bus firm you’ll be utilizing.
An additional thing you require to understand about ADO is that some years ago they acquired another company called OCC. They did not bother to alter the branding on the buses, so if your bus turns up as well as it says “OCC” on the side as opposed to “ADO” do not panic. It coincides point.
This likewise applies to the bus stations themselves. Like when I could not discover the ADO bus station in San Cristobal de las Casas on Google Maps because it’s still called OCC. You’re welcome.
ADO Bus Class Levels
Despite the fact that they have different course levels, all ADO buses are thought-about first class. Second-class buses in Mexico depart from a different terminal. They are more affordable, but they aren’t as comfy, as well as I’ve never been on one with Air Conditioner. In our opinion, it’s generally worth paying a few added pesos for comfort on journeys over an hour, particularly overnight ones.
Mentioning extra pesos, you will pay more for the additional advantages on ADO. The different course levels are listed here, beginning with the costliest, together with a summary of what each offers.
