Our bus was two hours late because we stopped in a garage in La Paz. Should have dropped us off first before adding 2 hours to a 16 hour trip.

The journey from Cusco to La Paz generally worked out according to plan. The bus nearly ran on time. It was reasonably comfortable and I managed to sleep onboard. The border formalities were handled in an orderly manner. The only thing was that the 5 soles bus terminal tax was not included in the ticket price. It needed to be paid upfront by cash. The onboard toilet was a bit disgusting after many hours of use, with no running water or hand wash.

The chairs are great, the temperature was nice and the usb-port worked most of the time. It’s just that we arrived 2 hours later than the expected time.

Awful, there was no WiFi as advertised, no refreshments as advertised, and to put it lightly the attendant was nasty to everyone around him, to give and example he shoulder checked me at the Peru-Bolivia border

The bus itself is comfortable and has chargers and a toilets. However there were blockades on the road to La Paz, something the company did not mention before and then 10 miles from our destination we were told to get out and walk

Relatively comfortable seats, nice staff, nice to get a blanket on the first bus. But, downside; we changed bus in Puno, where they took our blankets. The bus departed late because some people came late. We had to change bus in the night/really early morning without any explanation. Also, the door on the second bus was open the whole time, so there was a beeping noice the whole way.

The driver left us at the gas station and refused to turn back. Which led us to join another bus and interrupt their trip..
