Transzela Arequipa La Paz recent customer reviews
It was suppose to be 1 bud but I had to take 2 which added on a lot of time. Also we were dropped in El Alto 20 minutes outside of La Paz with no Bolivian currency or Bolivian sim card so it was difficult to pay for transport into La Paz
First off the guy at the counter in Arequipa changed our bus to Puno, also giving us spectacularly bad seats, after arriving on a dismal bus ride in puno we were forced out of the bus and had to call in an audible and get tickets from puno -> La Paz. Also the guy at the counter yelled at my gf because we asked if we could pay the tax by card. All in all a horrible experience! I will not recommend Transzela to anyone.
We booked a direct bus and then when we got to Arequipa bus station we were told we had to change buses (with a 90 minute wait) in Puno.
