Flota Occidental Medellin Salento recent customer reviews
So we safely arrived at Salento but sadly there was no Wifi onboard although it's said in the booking. Throughout the drive it started raining and not only outside... no through the ceilingwindow also wich was just above us...
Nathanael Sebastian S.
The bus was very spacious, clean and comfortable. There were toilets and TV screens too.

1. Seat layout didn't match what was shown when booking 2. Bus was warm but I couldn't open air vents because they dripped condensation 3. Trip was -- and apparently always is -- much longer than scheduled
