Futura Nuevo Laredo Mexico City recent customer reviews

There was misunderstanding with the Terminal and the bus was delayed one hour, even tho I give five stars, because of the behaviour and quality of the driver. We were on 1100km long trip with him without any problems, it was comfortable, just WiFi would be nice, but I don't mind.
