The ticket was supposed to included a checked bag, but I was asked to pay at BOTH ends of the trip. And the bus was too hot. The driving was good, though

There was a bit of uncertainty about which Balut bus was the one for Tilcara. Signage and info at Salta bus station does not exist. So lots of dashing about asking harressed drivers dumb questions.
Based on 2147 reviews, the company was rated 3.7 stars on Busbud. Travellers were especially satisfied with the departure location and the ticket access but often complained with the Wi-Fi. Andesmar ticket prices on this trip start at R 339
