The bus driver left us at the border while we were at the customs without any notice. 1/10 would never recommend, stay the heck away.

Bus was late for over an hour, driver's check-in system was not working, there was a passenger smoking weed on the bus and it smelled throughout most of the ride and then the system showed that no people were going to Vancouver when there was a handful of us. We made it to the final destination but it also took forever when a highway ride to Vancouver can be done in 3 hours or less.
