Cristobal Colon San Cristóbal de las Casas Palenque recent customer reviews
Bus was cancelled, I was not notified and there were no Cristobal Colon staff on hand to help. I had to get an OCC bus instead which took over 8 hours due to the different route.
Passengers generally appreciate the comfortable reclining seats and clean facilities, with many noting that buses leave on time. The service at stations is also praised for being nice and helpful. However, some reviews mention concerns about unnecessary mid-trip cleaning procedures using questionable methods, as well as limited lunch stop options during longer journeys.

Very comfortable seats. But sometimes the films are very loud with lots of shouting , eg Dune.
5.0 out of 5 stars

Nice service at the station in San Cristobal . The seats are hard, beaten but the ride was smooth. The lunch stop was very short and not much to choose from. The bus stopped in 4 towns before finally getting to destination, Palenque.

while I was asleep, someone stole all of my money out of my wallet which was in my bag in the pocket of the back of the seat in front of me.
