It was good over all. It would have been nice to know the bus terminal at Bariloche has no ATM or way to change money. I took a long walk in the dark as a result to get in town and my hotel.

The bus to the codade of Osorno is terrible, overblooted, with a bad smell. After the bus change, the trip went well. I think the company Via Tac should offer transportation from Puerto Montt to Bariloche, without changing vehicles.
