Wild Public Bus Rides: The Chicken Bus

David’s Been Here takes a quick tour of the beautiful Hotel Atitlan in Panajachel, with its breathtaking views, beautiful gardens and comfortable quarters. Enjoying his last few minutes of comfort, David prepares for a real local experience as he boards the “chicken bus” out to the town of Chichicastenango. Follow David as he crams into this local bus ride for 40 minutes of bumping, squishing, sweating and hanging on. If you’re looking for the real local experience, a ride on this bus is a must.
