It was not easy to find where exactly in the bus terminal the bus was departing from. The location in the app always seemed to be very generalised and lacked information. The bus was not that comfortable, no air conditioning and was overcrowded. It did however run exactly on time which was good. We also wanted an earlier bus, to which the company obliged and honoured our tickets.

I begged the seat beside the driver on my return and got it. Happy driver and beautiful sceneries.

The departure was timely and the bus was comfortable. However, the driver picked up so many people along the way that we were cramped in our seats, with overflowing passengers effectively putting their bags in our faces. Maybe that’s par for the course in Colombia, though - couldn’t say.
