Tufesa Los Angeles San Jose recent customer reviews
The bus was late arriving to boarding location (LA) but that was it, after it left, it kept stopping for 20 minutes here and there and everywhere. The bus said it would arrive at 4:40pm, so if it was 45 minutes late, it should have arrived by 6pm. It arrived just before 9pm. That's five hours late. FRAUDulent claims about timing and being a "direct" bus.

Absolutely terrible experience. Was left abandoned at a greyhound station waiting for a transfer that never came. Greyhound support could not even locate the bus or assist me in getting to my location. Trip had to be cancelled because no bus.

Horrible experience, almost every bus was delayed 6 hours due to them not having enough drivers.

Amazing service loved it. However few seats near the toilet area were stinking, so would be great if a corrective action could be taken.
