Balut La Quiaca Salta recent customer reviews

Awful. We missed the bus because we didn’t know there was a time difference (our problem) but when we asked to change our bus to the same bus a few hours later, they said no and were very not friendly in Villazon.

Very loud movie sounds through all the speakers, while tv was broken. I really did not want to listen to Disney and Avengers for 7,5 hours.

Staff at office desk were rude. Bus staff demanded money to put bags on Bus and take bags off!
