According to customer reviews, there are some concerns regarding the boarding process, with multiple lines for taxes, check-in, and boarding. Additionally, passengers mentioned a constant noise in the bus that affected their ride experience. On a positive note, customers appreciated the friendly crew on board despite one driver's slightly erratic driving.
The clerk didn't understand my ticket so I had to buy a new one. But this was from Ica to Paracas, not Arequipa to Ica -which, by the way, was delayed for 1 and 1/2 hour.
The buses are comfortable and leave on time. Both times I travelled with this company the bus arrived an hour late at the end station and the second time this was a bit tricky considering I had another bus to catch so I would recommend leaving more then an hour in between buses. Other than that I can recommend using the company to travel in Peru (I only used the buses to travel in the south so can't say anything about their service in the north)!
+ Super-comfy reclining seats (airlines could learn a lot!), clean bus (including toilet), nice touch of a complementary snack bag for our overnight trip - a minor quibble, but it would have been helpful to have the stops announced. The check in process was quite confusing for non-Spanish speakers.
According to customer reviews, this night bus provides fairly comfortable seats for sleeping. However, there have been complaints about a smelly toilet and loud videos playing late at night.
This is a night bus. No need for laud tv. Advertisement and films until 12 pm. Both turists and peruan will sleep. I will not recommend this kind of bus again
Fairly comfortable seats to sleep in. Smelly toilet. Loud video playing quite late

I didn't enjoy the way the bus was driven, it was as if the bus driver was driving too fast and felt out of control
A Jack to recharge electronics would be nice
