No merece la pena pagar por algo que puedes hacer tu! Su único servicio fue que nos compraron los boletos y un audio que no es tan malo por que lo reproduces desde tu celular, (la compra del boleto la hicieron en el momento en que llegamos) prácticamente nos llevaron hasta ventanilla y compraron los boletos
