Crossing From Mexico to Guatemala Overland - La Mesilla Border Explained 🇲🇽➡🇬🇹

Crossing from Mexico to Guatemala overland via the La Mesilla border can be confusing if you’ve never done it before. In this video, I walk through every step of the La Mesilla border crossing, including exit and entry procedures, costs, transport options, and important tips to make the process as smooth as possible. I break down the full overland border crossing process from Mexico into Guatemala, explain what documents you’ll need, what fees to expect, and what actually happens on both sides of the border. I also share a few practical tips that can save you time, stress, and money if you’re doing this crossing independently. After crossing into Guatemala, I review Hotel Shinula, where I ended up staying again - hilariously, in the exact same room as last time. It’s a simple but convenient option if you arrive late or just want to rest after the border process. If you’re traveling overland through Mexico and Central America, this is a straightforward, no-nonsense guide to one of the most common border crossings in the region.
