Cuernavaca
is unusual in that it doesn't have a single main bus station. Instead, half a dozen companies have their own depots in different parts of town. Very frequent
buses
from Mexico City's Central del Sur mostly arrive close to the centre: Estrella Blanca services are probably the most convenient, with their Cuernavaca terminal easy to find on Morelos, just north of the centre. Pullman de Morelos buses also stop quite close to the centre, at the corner of Abasolo and Netzahualcoyotl; simply walk up the latter and you find yourself at the heart of things. The first-class Estrella de Oro terminus is around 2km south of the centre on Morelos. Estrella Roja coaches from Puebla pull in at a station three blocks south of the zocalo at Cuauhtemotzin and Galeana. The bus stations where you are most likely to arrive generally have someone handing out local
maps
, but their knowledge of the town is limited and for more detail you'll need to head 2km south to the very helpful and well-informed state
tourist office
, near the Estrella de Oro terminus, at Morelos Sur 802 (Mon-Fri 8am-9pm, Sat & Sun 10am-4pm; tel 7/314-38-72,

). They also have information on buses and excursions, plus leaflets on several other destinations around the country. Other useful information
