The Puebla bus terminal was the only bad part. I had an hour to spare but they gave me the run-around so much that I almost missed the bus.

AU provides a comfortable and efficient travel experience, with many users praising the helpfulness of the staff and timely service. The buses are generally clean, offering smooth rides that often arrive on time or even earlier than expected. While some minor delays were noted due to traffic or unadvertised stops, these instances did not significantly impact overall satisfaction.

AU Mexico City Puebla recent customer reviews

Bus was clean and comfortable. It was about 40 minutes late departing TAPO and made an unadvertised stop at another station in Mexico City but only added about 5-6 minutes to the trip. Traffic added another 25 minutes (to be expected on a holiday). I bring this up as it put us an hour late getting to Puebla CAPU and there was no gate for us to park. We circled the terminal twice to find a place. On the bus, one of the usb charging ports didn't work...

We were supposed to arrive in Puebla at 3pm, we didn't get there until 5:30pm...the trip was twice as long. We missed a planned excursion.
