Reviews
We had excellent service from Baolau when booking these tickets as they followed up via WhatsApp when my emails weren’t getting through to them. The bus service that we used was easy and well organised. We arrived at the station for our return trip to Takayama earlier than our scheduled booking and the driver was more than happy to allow us to board the earlier bus. Anna
Très simple d'utilisation Magali
Todo genial, me avisaron de que el autobús que solicité estaba completo y me mandaron varias alternativas. Indique la que mejor nos venía y al momento teníamos los billetes vía email. Isabel
