Last year I travelled with Bamba Experience in Central America. I thougt it would be an easy and cheap way to travel, especially because I was alone and I can't speak any Spanish. Well, it wasn't really what I expected. I thought I would travel with other backpackers in the same van. This isn't so. You are travelling with the... More

My wife and I visited Mexico and since places of interests (natural reserves, landmarks, nice beaches, etc.) are far from each other and there is not a good transport network (like in Europe) we decided to take Bamba excursions to get to where we wanted. We traveled from Mexico City all the way to Cancun in two weeks time visiting... More

We used Bamba to travel throughout Central America for two months in 2011. Bamba is not an inclusive tour, they do one simple task - they book your buses for you. No buses fill up inconveniently in Latin America, you can book yourself anytime, without a problem. It forces you to make decisions ahead of time that you should make... More

Unfortunately this bus pass in central america made it rather harder than easier for me and my friend to travel. We felt as it locked us and made it harder to travel along with friends we met on the journey since we always had to make our bus booking in advance and couldn't be spontaneous and jump on any bus...

It's really nice to have everything organised for you for the first couple of bus journeys, but bamba screwed up booking a couple of buses for us so the times we NEEDED were no longer available, and not informing us how to claim our included activities. And as you have to figure out how and where to collect the tickets,... More

The experience for the most part was good. It was quick and easy, it doesnt however bring people together so well as you are a solo traveller. Information on border crossings and what to expect was poor and they are not always avaliable to contact in times of need. Unfortunatly it is not a 24/7 service and I came across... More

We travelled for 4 weeks last summer, and did not leave a review until prompted today by Bamba. We travelled with Bamba in Mexico and Guetemala and made our own way into and out of Belieze. STA recommended Bamaba to us. The service was disorganised and they did not like us making amendmentd which is what we had been lead... More

Bamba experience was a fun, cost effective and efficient way of travelling around Central America. Knowing very little spanish, Bamba experience removed the hassle of language barriers when accessing public transport and included great activities which I would never have been aware of, or participated in if i hadnt travelled with Bamba experience. It provided the safety and security of... More

This isnt a hop on hop of bus like the oz or kiwi experience! Its simply a company who organises your public bus for you and organises trips. Both of which you could easily sort out by yourself. Its well set up for mexico. We only had one problem where they promised a mini bus with drop of in playa... More
