Greyhound Portland Vancouver recent customer reviews

The bus driver was excellent. Friendly. Knowledgable. The bus was however quite dirty, there were stains on the headliner. The space between the wall and the seat was filled with garbage. The track that the seats are mounted to was filled with what looked like dirt and bits of food. The bus left safely. The ride felt mechanically sound, and we all arrived safely. This is a however a rather low bar.

It is unacceptable that I bought my ticket for a specific time so I can arrive at a scheduled time but due to delays at the Greyhound terminal I was 2 and a half hours late for my arrival. This ruined all my travel plans.

Our bus driver was amazing. Bus 86776 january 6th. 10 am Portland to Vancouver. Amazing attitude, super kind and most helpful. I wanted to right a review for him but the number on the bus "how was your driver" didn't work. Waiting for the bus in Portland, I was not convinced that taking a bus to Vancouver was a good idea but as soon as I met the driver i was feeling comfortable and save right away. I would definitely go again with him. thanks a lot to him.
