Border crossing Guatemala - Honduras

Hi folks, we just crossed into Honduras at El Florido to Copan Ruinas. First of all, the road is perfectly paved, from Chiquimulas in Guate u need not an hour., from the border to the Ruinas, it is 10 minutes.

Exit Guatemala:

1. Exit stamp cost 10 Quetzales. It was very easy, just go to the window and he stamps it, no discussions, not questions.

2. Entry Honduras. You fill out a paper with Name, where u come from etc. Standard info. Give the paper to Window 4, the guy gives u 90 days (if u tell him that u are not only going to Copan). Cost: 3 Dollar or 60 Lempiras.

3. Go to Aduana (right beside the Immigration). First exit Guatemala, the guy checks ur Serial number on the bike, than fills everything out. Fast and friendly, more discussion about futbol then about papers.

The Honduras guys are ok as well. Need some help but do not even check ur correct numbers. Takes 30 min. because they fill it out by hand partly. Costs are 30 US Dollar, You need copy passport and vehicle registration.

Whole procedure 30 to 40 minutes.

All friendly, easy going.

have fun
Martin and Katja

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
