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

Son un desastre. Me dejaron a 3k del lugar que pague para que me dejan. Tuve que pagar un remis. Los voy a denunciar

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.
