Seats ok, though meant for taller people than I am, so headrest uncomfortable. No frills, such as a blanket or a bottle of water.
Admire the drivers - very long journey.
Smelly food should NOT be allowed in the coach. Someone who came in at Puno brought raw onion, and it was unpleasant for a very long time. Also, people who want to listen to something should bring headphones and not inflict their choice on everyone.

The staff locked the bus and went for dinner. Some people was locked in and couldn't get out, some people got stuck outside couldn't get in after getting money changed.

There was no room on the bus so we sat on the floor for three hours and then we had to walk half an hour to the border of Peru.

Great and perfectly on time. No snacks for 15h trip. Blankets in the bus but not given. Fine because the temperature was quiet well regulated

Nuevo Continente Internacional La Paz Cusco recent customer reviews
We specifically booked with Nuevo Continente International and paid more due to the reviews of the other companies. When we arrived at La Paz terminal we were rushed onto a Trans Salvador bus with no explanation. There was no communication for the 18 hour journey, specifically when we were at a standstill roadblock in Puno for over two hours. The bus smelt, was hot and extremely dusty for the whole journey. Next time we will buy flights instead.
