We got caught in some sort of accident. On the road which caused a 4 hour delay which got us to our destination at 9am. When we should've been here for 1am. The bus was loaded so it was humid and hot and uncomfortable. Super exhausted from the trip. But made it safely. Sleeping the day away now.

The chairs were nice but is was very cold in the bus.

Clean, comfortable large seats. Friendly service. My only concern is that the driver was driving really fast, I was pretty worried for a wee while going through the mountains. We got to our stop safely at the end.

We still havent arrived to Arequipa, the ride was bumpy and we moved from tour seats by people who were meant to be on an earlier bus. We are stuck outside arequipa with no way into the city as taxis are refusing to take people. To get to the city we had to cross a dangerous area to finally catch a little bus and pay even more money to arrive to the city. Not at all happy with the service - should've at least tried to offer an alternative route as there were a lot of people with children left in a dangerous situation.
