Rider Express Red Deer Kamloops recent customer reviews
Everything was great. Would have liked a little more information from the driver on the stops made, didn't tell us how long the stops were or even tell us which town were in. But all in all it was a good trip.
Amber M.
The seats were very comfortable and the driver was helpful and very confident. The bus was super clean. Other than a delay due to a traffic accident (which was of course out of the driver’s control )the trip went smoothly. I would definitely take the bus again.Just to add I was not excited about the quality of food offered at the gas station in Golden. It was not very fresh and overpriced but of course ,once again that is not the fault of Rider Express.Overall a great trip!
