I enjoyed the ride it was very comfortable and arrived quickly the seats very soft and I was able to get rest there was no outside noise or vehicle noise
The only thing that I noticed is that there was inconsistencies in the air conditioner. One moment it will be comfortable and then it will become warm

Nice bus. Large and comfortable. On time. Only gripe was the en route entertainment screen system was inoperable and the phone charge outlet in my seat didn’t work either.

No ayudan si tienes un problema. Salimos tarde, se paraba varias veces y como en Barranquilla había un paro no podían pasar a central y nadie se hizo responsable, nos dejaron en la calle esperando algún taxi
