Bus was cancelled and I had to go to another village to go to Bogota from there. Furthermore, it was fine.
The trip from Santa Marta to Bogota' was ok by South America standards I guess
Our (2) TVs didnt work. As that is the only activity, it seems wrong to pay the extremely high price and not getting everything that is included. Also, the seats on the back row don’t go back almost at all so it was impossible to sleep -> very uncomfortable trip.
Based on 37 reviews, Berlinas del Fonce was rated 4.2 stars for this trip. Berlinas del Fonce ticket prices on this trip start at $36.00, with the trip lasting on average 18h30.
Berlinas del Fonce Santa Marta Bogotá recent customer reviews
We asked the lady at the front desk if there was going to be a stop for dinner, she said yes. For dinner and for breakfast. I asked her to be sure if we needed to buy food before leaving. She said no need. Unfortunately, there was no stop for dinner
Very comfortable bus with wifi working the whole journey. Unfortunately it was very cold on the bus, so don't forget to bring warm clothes.
My only bad comment is that the bus was leaking from the rainfall. Other than that, good company

Copearan, the worlds slowest bus company, scheduled 16 hours took nearly 24. Not because of traffic, because they randomly stopped sat still for up to an hour multiple times. No clear reason why. The staff was rude and unhelpful. Take any other company.
