Bus got postponed to the next day because they oversold. No apologies. No compensation
Jed R.
The bus itself was fine, but the company is the most disorganised and frustrating to travel with that I've experienced in South America. The ticket system is ridiculous, we had 3 different tickets for one trip and constantly asked to present them once on the journey. The bus left an hour late and the hostess was always in the toilet on her phone.

The bus itself was fine, but staff in Copacabana did not warn us about the customs declaration required until the last minute, causing a sudden panic amongst passengers. The bus left about an hour late, but the main complaint is that we needed to change in Puno and that hadn't been made clear, and staff had no obvious idea which bus was meant to go where. It worked out in the end but was chaotic.
