The Monterrey terminal is also conveniently located in front of the Metro light rail line that connects to downtown Monterrey. For those traveling from Texas, pickup in Dallas is available from the downtown and Westmoreland terminals, while the Houston service picks up from the downtown and Harrisburg terminals.

Greyhound's Mexico service offers new buses with safety features such as three-point seatbelts at every seat, found throughout its entire fleet. Other onboard modern amenities include free Wi-Fi, power outlets, leather seats, guaranteed seating, extra legroom, footrests and restrooms.

Offering the lowest priced tickets found for these routes, customers can buy their tickets at the terminal, or for additional savings, purchase tickets from Greyhound's website, www.greyhound.com for exclusive web-only fares, including some as low as $1.
