Great, minor delay with first bus (10 min delay) but it was during the morning rush hour so understandable though we arrived to the destination on time. No issues

Very good value for money. It would be helpful if there was signage at Pearson Airport.

The driver didn't know what stops were on his route, so he told us we were at the wrong bus, and then left without us, which delayed our trip by a day. Also, the customer service line hung up on us when we tried to get more information about the situation.

Megabus Canada Toronto Ottawa recent customer reviews
The sears on the mega bus are painfully uncomfortable. I’ve tried sitting on jackets, moving my seat position, bringing back support, but I am always in pain after about 30 minutes of sitting. The other bus we switched too did not have this issue

Kyanne V.
The ride was smooth and bus was spacious. However the delays were really frustrating, and the 2 hour layover didn't make sense for a 5 hour trip. We got to Ottawa almost at midnight when it was supposed to be arrival at 10:40.

Red Arrow ON Toronto Ottawa recent customer reviews
I never made the trip. They sent out a late departure email saying they were leaving at 6:30pm when it was supposed to originally depart at 6:15pm. My girlfriend and I arrived at the station at 6:20. The bus operator saw us, refused to speak to us, and drove off at 6:23. It’s ironic that we have to accommodate to when they are late, but this is how Redarrow treats their clients when we are on time.

Paul B.
The driver who drove the Bus which departed from Toronto at 6.15 pm (6th August), was really friendly and helpful to ALL customers equally and he also arrived at Ottawa sharp at 11.20 pm, and was very punctual. The driver is very admirable in terms of his driving and the behaviour and discipline.

Bus was on time. It would have been better if some means are available to track the bus esp. for international passengers knowing the coordinates and timing of the bus at airport or bus driver number. Overall a good journey! Thanks Redarrow!
