Coomotor Neiva Popayán recent customer reviews

Bus left on time but arrived two hours late. It’s a small, curvy, bumpy mountain road and the bus picked up more people than there were seats. At one point, I had a lady standing in the aisle, leaning against my seat with her bum on my shoulder.

It was raining and the window had a leak so unfortunately I got wet during the journey.

The journey took 12 hours rather than 8,we got very struck in mud and the roads were only dirt tracks for more than half the journey
