  • Ximena Maldonado

    Estuvo bien el servicio por parte de uds pero de la compañía big bus si hubo un poco de antipatía de los empleados pues nos hicieron cambiar de bus varías veces en un día muy lluvioso sin ninguna explicación. Me gustaría volver hacer el bus pues me toco un mal día pero no voy a volver a pagar los tiquetes....me quede sin la experiencia bien vivida

    The ticket and the extras offered were better than I expected, service inside the Bus and extra support were great.
