I was drop off by the Driver at Leicester instead of Nottingham due to my Baggage was not rap properly

Mam Samba G.

February 21, 2025

The bus was new, very comfortable and the driver was fantastic. The issue was with the schedule. Our bus departed one hour earlier than the ticket time. Fortunately another driver honoured the ticket and got us to our destination, be it on a longer route which added another 1 hour, but we made it.
