文化知识空投坊:

Surviving Long Distance Bus Travel in South America

Bus travel is the most common form of transportation in South America.Flights in South America can be expensive and a train system is almost nonexistent.As a result,most travelers spend many an hour on overland,night,and/or long-distance buses.If you are planning an overland trip across South America,it pays to be prepared.While plenty of buses will take you from country to country,each South American country has their own independent and unique bus system.

Colombia Travel

In Colombia be prepared for less options again.Colombian buses are in general very well maintained and newer;however,double decker buses are very rare.The roads are decent,but tend to be windy so take your motion sickness pills before you get onboard.

Peru Travel

Once you get to Peru you will again be rewarded with plenty of choices when it comes to bus companies.The companies range from basic chicken buses to very high-end VIP buses that rival first class airline cabins.

Chile Travel

Chile buses are very similar to Argentina buses;very nice rides on very flat roads,until you get up into the highlands,then its quite scenic and wild.
