Turismo Zaahj El Calafate Puerto Natales recent customer reviews
I like that they had 2 drivers for the long journey who took turns to drive us across the border. The space between seats are a little tight but thankfully it wasn't a full bus so we could spread ourselves out.

The bus left on time and arrived on time. The customs were very smooth and the driver did a good job on making sure everyone knows what to do and is back on the bus. This was one of the smoothest journeys in our 8 months of starveling in Latin America.
