Santiago to Calama is a 24 hour bus ride, then you have to take a 2 hour bus to San Pedro de Atacama from Calama. I brought a cheap bottle of wine on the bus and asked for a cup. They tried to say it was $12 for me to drink wine, I just played the dumb American card and pretended I had no idea what they were saying and they left me alone. My seat was next to the bathroom, which anyone understands is annoying and disgusting. Luckily my allergies were acting up a bit so I couldn’t smell the best. For about 12 hours of my bus journey I was stuck sitting next to this Chilean man who should’ve been forced to buy two seats as his body was coming over into my area and there is not that much space already. Chilean buses are nothing like Colombia’s, Uruguay’s or Argentina’s. They are older and way less comfortable. I will never book with Pullman again; Turbus is the company to use.
