A rental car is the best means to explore Leon Guanajuato, but driving around Leon Guanajuato can be quite a task especially if you are visiting the city for the first time. To help you avoid unnecessary hassle, below are some tips on getting around Leon Guanajuato:
In Leon Guanajuato maintain a maximum speed limit of 15 mph within the city and not more than 55 in non built-up areas.
If you need to park your car in Guanajuato, look out for free underground parking spots off the many tunnels in El Central (downtown). Some charge upto 35 pesos an hour. Another option is the parking space of resorts and hotels.
Although Leon Guanajuato does not have much traffic, it always helps to avoid the main city streets of Centro between 7:00 am to 9:00 am and 5:00 pm to 7:30 pm.
