Disappointing. Rede Expressos is usually on time. Our bus left 25 minutes after it was scheduled to leave. No one could give us an answer as to why the bus was late.

The bus was 30 minutes late, we had to ask lot of drivers where is our bus and when it s coming.. nobody knew..
Also in the car the AC is at 18 degrees ( i think) all the way, 3.5-4 hours... everybody was looking for clothes to put on.
Passengers have shared positive experiences with the bus service, highlighting comfortable seating and individual access to entertainment options such as TV, music, or movies. Additionally, travelers appreciated a scheduled break after 1.5 hours of travel at a highway rest stop. Overall feedback reflects satisfaction without any notable complaints.
I was impressed that each passenger had their own access to TV, music or Movies. I also appreciated that the bus stopped after 1 1/2 hours for a 25 minute break at the hiway rest stop.
