No arrancaba de cada lugar hasta no llenar el bus. Paro a recoger gente en la bomba de la boyacá y en soacha. En sientoos de encomiendas. Horrible el viaje. No recomiendo esta empresa para transportarse la elegí porque me dijeron que era buena, pero totalmente equivocados.

Pésimo servicio, nunca cojan este bus, el espacio es totalmente angosto, el bus huele feo, huele a viejo a guardado, se ve mal, dan ganas de no subirse. El servicio v.i.p de bus se supone que tiene que ser cómodo, esto no tiene nada de eso, no tiene tomas, el servicio de internet es malo, las pantallas no sirven, es como viajar en una chatarra, está compañía de buses tan desconsiderada, les deberia dar pena llevar a la gente en esta basura. Nunca escojan un bus de estos, les recomiendo que compren pasajes en el expreso bolivariano, ese bus si es cómodo y vale la pena.

A la 1 en punto ingresa a la Terminal del Sur. Un recorrido lento y despacioso, muchas otras flotas nos pasan. Ingresa a la terminal de Melgar a eso de las 4 PM. Se le comenta al conductor la lentitud de su viaje y solo se justifica por el trancón. Trancón que solo duró 40 minutos. Paramos en Ibagué a las 6 PM con el propósito de que los señores conductores comieran. Son las 7 en punto y el bus NO ha arrancado. Se nos informa que hará paradas en Tulua, Buga y Palmira. Se ha vendido como un bus directo. NO LO ES. UN BUS LENTO Y DEMORADO #2943 el 21/08/2024
