EME Bus Santiago Chillan recent customer reviews

El tiempo de viaje es mucho mayor al indicado en la compra. Eso hace que toda la programación sea un desastre si uno viaja por trabajo. El Bus supuestamente era directo y se detuvo en muchas partes de Santiago a Chillan. Lo mismo de regreso a Santiago. Bus sucio.

A little chaotic at santiago terminal sur. Trans santin buses depart from one of the platform from 1 to 10. Departed and arrived on time making several quick stops along the way to pick passengers up. Bus attendant sold biscuits and drinks on board. No complaints
