Nice and comfortable beds/seats. Driving was comfortable, the toilets could've been a bit cleaner.

Comfy seats but not 180 degrees as advertised. Landslide caused a 4 hour delay but no fault of the bus operator

The driver drove very quickly on the windy mountain roads, which meant we couldn't sleep as we were thrown around. People got motion sickness.

Seats were comfortable and temperature was comfortable as well but the bus smelled like a toilet for the first few hours.
At some point during the night people entered and left the bus occasionally and were incredibly disrespectful.
I don't speak spanish and I was half asleep so I don't really know what was going on but it sounded like people were boarding the bus, trying to sell stuff and then left at the next station?
All I know is that they were being insufferably loud and it was around 4am.

The trip to Puerto Maldonado was great, but the way back to cusco was a dissapointment. We thought we had booked 180 degree beds for both ways, but we did not get the premium chair/bed on the way back.

Speakers were very loud, to the point I couldn’t speak to the person next to me. No aircon so it was very hot inside. Oil spilt over our luggage in the bag hold. Arrived to Puerto Maldonado three hours late.

The bus broke down and we waited in the road for over 4 hours. The bus was either too cold or too hot.

There was no clear instructions where to get the bus from. It said estacion waschaq on the tickets but there is no bus station there so I had to book another bus and take it from the main bus terminal. It cost me much more and 3 taxi rides
