Bus-Sur was great, the drivers were very professional and polite. We were also served a bottle of water and 2 croissants. The seats were comfortable, wifi throughout the trip.

Really nice. Only problem - there was no address in the Ushuaia section, took us some time to figure out where is the bus terminal.

Clean modern bus. Very friendly, efficient and helpful staff. Arrived early at destination.
The bus service is generally comfortable, with passengers appreciating the ease of sleeping and a not overly crowded environment. However, there were some concerns about temperature control leading to discomfort due to heat and condensation issues. Additionally, an hour delay at immigration was noted by travelers as affecting arrival times.
WiFi is essential for these long trips in todays world travellers need to make arrangements when mobile , charging points for devices are a must too

Bus was comfortable for the most part and not overly crowded. It got extremely hot a few times and the windows built up so much condensation due to no air circulation it was ridiculous. Some lady complained and they finally got the air turned on

The bus was very comfortable, and it was easy to sleep. We had an hour delay at the Argentina immigration terminal, and we ended up getting to Punta Arenas an hour late. I don’t know what the issue was
