THE MOST * Argentine - The most comfortable buses in the world
Ver mapa más grandeI don't know if that title is true or not as I haven't ridden every bus in the world, but these are the best ones I've ever been on
Salta.Prov. Salta,Argentina -Travel Blog, by Dennis Brougham -February 4, 2009: -- Apparently they have five classes but I've only ever seen three: economy, semi-recliner and full recliner... As I was heading for Northwestern Argentina and the ride would take about 18 hours I chose full recliner. Steward aboard, departure announcement over the microphone, then an evening meal served to me in my seat, with wine and liqueur afterward.
And when you're ready to sleep the seat goes all the way down flat and the footrest comes all the way up to create a truly horizontal bed that was only barely long enough for my height, but that “only barely” was just enough to ensure a comfortable enough sleep and not just uncomfortable dozing... As we left BA the sky clouded over and we rolled across the pampas with lightning flickering in the distance. Shortly there began the most intense thunderstorm I've ever seen. As darkness fell we caught up to the storm and the lightning intensified in frequency and power. Multiple bolts, some like thick, bright vertical cables connecting clouds to ground, others just fleeting shots across the sky. The rain came on in an astounding deluge, like driving through an endless car wash and at times I felt like a dry, air-breathing fish in an aquarium safe from the watery world outside. Unbelievably, the lightning continued to increase until it seemed as if some hand was flicking a celestial light on and off as rapidly as possible, with more light than darkness in the clouds...Labels: better buses worldwide
