Amazing driver very nice. There were too many stops and stops that had no passengers so sort of a waste of time.

I had a very good experience with ALSA. The purchase of the ticket, online, was easy. The buses are clean and comfortable. The driver was polite and helpful. The departure and arrival was on time. I will use ALSA in the future and I recommend them for the excellent services they provide.
