The seating was assigned, with the 15 or so passengers crammed together in the back of the bus, leaving the rest of the bus empty. Wifi didn't work.

Very prompt. Not a lot of personal space--other passengers take up more space than their seat.

Rider Express Ottawa Toronto recent customer reviews
The pickup and drop-off were efficient, driver was very nice, and the seats were comfortable. I didn’t get to try the WiFi as I didn’t realize until the ride was almost over, but perhaps next time. The bus was really really cold though, I wore a jumper and toque but was still shivering. It felt like there was a draft coming from underneath the window.

Megabus Canada Ottawa Toronto recent customer reviews
This trip was terrible and did not work out because of a delay of changing drivers in Kingston. We did not arrive by scheduled arrival time of 7:15 instead arriving 45 min later. I missed my next connection and I had to cancel my whole trip and take the next bus back home

Gabrielle M.
Bus arrived late, check in was slow and unprofessional making me think anyone could get on without a ticket, we then stopped in Kingston for over an hour because of a driver mixup. I arrived at the destination 2 hours later than expected. Delays were not caused by traffic.

ONEXBUS Ottawa Toronto recent customer reviews
My experience with ONEXBUS was overall very good: booking was easy, the bus was clean and comfortable, the ride was smooth and on time, and the driver was excellent - professional, friendly, helpful with luggage, and safe on the road, which made the journey stress-free. The only weird part was the price: when I went to book it showed $28, but I ended up paying around $41, so I wish the final price including any taxes or fees had been clearer before payment. Even so, I'd recommend ONEXBUS and would travel with them again, and I want to give a special thank-you to the driver for doing a great job.

On time, break time on service center, great price! Just a little noisy and a small paper bag for on side of seat would be more consistent to put small garbage things.

Driver was very nice and waited for everyone after a longer rest stop, what was out of his control was the 2 hour delay because of traffic on the highway

Hayley R.
Good ride! Bus left on time and arrived early despite some traffic on the Don Valley Parkway SB. Nice and charismatic driver, ride was pretty smooth.

Daniel G.
My trip to Toronto was not a very good experience. The bus departed more than 30 minutes late, and we arrived almost an hour late.
During a restroom stop, I was stopped from getting off the bus because I was a little late leaving my seat. However, it took more than five minutes for the last passenger to return, so I could have gone to the restroom during that time.
Also, the driving was quite rough and uncomfortable. Overall, the late departure, significant delay in arrival, rough driving, and the way the restroom stop was handled made the trip very frustrating.
Based on 7 reviews, the company was rated 3.2 stars on Busbud. Travellers were especially satisfied with the staff and the timeliness but often complained with the Wi‑Fi. Bus 360 ticket prices on this trip start at CLP 38,996

Hakimeh W.
Driver was courteous. Bus was clean. Seat was comfortable.
Driver dealt with a passenger who had a medical emergency when disembarking for a time break in Kingston. Driver stayed calm, contacted emergency services and comforted victim until paramedics arrived. He also liaisoned with Starbuck staff as the emergency ended up on the restaurant property adjacent to the bus lay up at the Harvey’s. Driver kept us informed and as no was going to Scarborough Station or there were no scheduled pick ups, he was able to keep on time. Kudos to him.
