AU User Reviews
AU has received positive feedback for its clean buses, punctual departures, and efficient service. Passengers appreciate the smooth rides and helpful drivers. However, some users noted challenges with unclear boarding information at stations and occasional delays due to traffic or construction. Additionally, a few mentioned cold temperatures inside the bus during travel. Overall, AU provides a reliable travel experience despite minor areas of improvement in signage clarity at departure points.
Great service - prompt, clean, spacious bus, lovely driver with regular but not too regular breaks
Jim M.
I got from and to where I needed to on time. The only thing is that there was no sign which gate was going to Oaxaca, and if the man didn't run around shouting Oaxaca for 5 minutes I would have missed the bus. The TAPO in general is also not well signposted in general if you are coming by train. I ended up at the metro bus station, but that isn't AU fault. Bus was clean and crazy cold. I personally thought the price was too high for the ticket on this style of bus, but there was nothing wrong with the bus journey at all. I really like that they had a ticket system for luggage.
Nelly D.
Service was good. Bus was clean. We got there safely but far from on time. We were told 430 arrival. How about 630!
Richard R.
Booking was great but AU driver fid not know the route and what was a 61/2 hour trip turned into 9 hours.
Helen G.
