Superciva Puerto Maldonado Arequipa recent customer reviews

The bus was really clean and very comfortable! It was on time! I felt very safe the whole time! It was so much nicer then I thought it would be! The 16 hour bus trip actually went really fast! Superciva should do vegetarian meal thoughts as many people couldn't eat the food and it went to waste!

When I arrived to Puerto Maldonado, I was informed that my tickets are not valid because the bus was cancelled and I had to book another much less comfortable bus!
