Greyhound Columbia St. Louis recent customer reviews
This Greyhound experience was not great. The bus was late and there was no communication about status while at the partner station. The drivers talked loudly for the duration of the trip which was exhausting to listen to even though I wasn’t sitting anywhere near them.

Bus driver was nasty , vindictive and rude. I may never ride grey hound again because of him.
