Bus was over an hour late and delayed even more on the road and we arrived almost 2 hours late from scheduled time. Greatly inconveniencing me for my meeting and there was not even an apology, guess we already paid and did not matter anymore. I have booed a different bus to return

It is not always good to plan your trip to leave and arrive at a certain time but all those plans are disturbed because of a late bus. Intercape busses have had this tendency for quite some time now.
According to customer reviews, there are complaints about the bus service provided by Greyhound. Customers express dissatisfaction with late arrivals and lack of communication regarding delays. Additionally, some customers mention being transferred to a lower quality bus without their consent, resulting in an uncomfortable and unsafe experience. The staff's poor service further adds to the negative feedback received by Greyhound.
