All was good, but when we want to enter the bus they want to have a printed voucher. I said I don't need because I have the voucher on my phone but the man said he need it. When we work digital I can't understand that they couldn't scan it. So I send it to him with Facebook and it works.

The bus left almost 1 hour late, but the service was excellent. It seems that some deries were delayed and we were waiting for the passengers which fully justify the delay living the bus

As there is no reservation taking place thru booking ahead, just proceed to the bus as at any bus trip on the Philippines. I had some problems without printed voucher. You buy your ticket directly in the bus.
