Bus from Boston, MA, US to New York City: Tickets & Timetables

I would like to see more information on pickup location. Specifically, where to go to board the bus. General address of the station is not sufficient.

Awful! Customer service was not helpful. Bus never arrived with no explanation. Myself and others were stranded for hours! Will never use this company again!

Terrible - I arrived ten minutes early and the bus in the gate wasn't moving, had it's lights off. 30 minutes later the bus driver emerged and claimed we'd all missed the bus, wouldn't let ppl on, could barely communicate. Finally relented. Got into NYC way later as a result. No charging, no wifi - overpriced!

The trip took longer than scheduled and there were passengers on the bus that were vaping which annoyed the driver.

I enjoyed the seat confort, but the driver was very unfriendly..I will ask him questions about the trip as it was my first time to take the bus from Boston to NY and he would barely reply

Greyhound was prompt in leaving on time. The weather was bad with a snow storm affecting roads to the west of Boston, so speed on the early part of the journey was below average. However, I appreciate that due to safety. The Boston South Station bust terminal has NO CONCESSIONS open at the time of this departure (0630hrs) so buy food the night before and or pick up coffee on your way to the station.

Positive:Confortable seats. Silent atmosphere. Safe driver/ arrived on time Negative: could not hear announcement ( lower volume) -no pull out tray for eating/writing

Quite bad as the bus broke down and there were no alternate bus arranged and we had to take Uber

We left on time which was great. No Wifi and the charging outlets didn’t work. Arrived early which was nice

It was rather hard to find the bus that would be the brand that I am getting on.

Rating 1* because at least I got to my destination in the end and alive. For context, I had a train to catch at Penn at 19:10 pm, and this bus was due to leave Boston at 12:30pm and arrive at 5pm. The bus did not arrive at the station in Boston until nearly one and we took off around 13:10. No apologies or explanation, and no ticket checks. Frankly anyone could have gotten in that bus. I expected that with the delay at the start, we would get to NY with a lot of time to spare still. Wrong. We did not arrive to our stop till AFTER 19:30. Again no acknowledgment or apology for any poor experience, causing me to miss my train. I had to spend over a hundred dollars to book a new train, hours later for myself and my companion. I had even asked for the driver to drop me off at a bus top of his choosing on 34th street between 7th and 8th Ave, as I might have been able to salvage the evening and catch my train at Penn from there. Of course he refused to do this one small favour. Rating 1* because at least I got to my destination in the end and alive.

I expected that with the delay at the start, we would get to NY with a lot of time to spare still. Maybe 5:40/50 latest. Wrong. We did not arrive to our stop till well AFTER 19:30 Again no acknowledgment or apology for any poor experience. I of course missed my train and the earliest next train. I had to spend over a hundred dollars to book a new train, late into the night for myself and my companion. I had even asked for the driver to drop me off at a bus stop of their choosing on 34th street between 7th and 8th Ave, as I might have been able to salvage the evening and catch my train at Penn from there. Of course he refused to do this one small favour. Poor route choice: when we arrived to NY, it was clear this driver did not know the directions as he was relying on both Google maps and a second individual who may have been a colleague or another passenger. He was expressing audible confusion about how to get to Hudson Yards! When we got to Manhattan, instead of going down the FDR or the highway on the west side of Manhattan to get to Hudson Yards, they drove down 3rd avenue and cross town on 34th street. It took us over an hour and half just to get to Hudson yards from 125th Street. Surely the driver for this established bus company would know that this was a bad route. I have to assume the driver had been this clueless the entire journey because that’s the only way I can fathom the nearly 7hr journey, when we should have arrived at 5:30/40 at the latest! The driver did not seem to know directions and was using google maps. He kept taking us through the most inefficient route. Also had to download their app to get access to the tickets. No pdf and no option to add to wallet. All the worse since, again, they did not even check the tickets in the end. Will not be recommending.

The driver was late, and we ended up leaving an hour later than scheduled as a result. The trip was then prolonged because the driver was using the incorrect navigation app and got pulled over by the police. Turns out, he didn't even have the correct app on his phone and then spent an additional 15 minutes driving around because he didn't know how to get back on the highway.

Great bus driver. Was nice it wasn’t over packed. That changed things. If it was I would maybe not enjoy as much. Good price. On time

Very good point experience. Was well on time and driver was welcoming and friendly. Drove us well to our destination.

I know trainees have to train at some point but we were on time for the first 2 hours of the 3:45 trip, then the drivers switched to someone in training (who didn’t sound like she thought she was ready for that), and by the time we made it to our destination, we were a full hour late. I gave myself 45 mins of buffer time but didn’t expect to need so much. Not satisfied.

The bus was late by an hour, and we arrived to our destination about 2 hours after the estimated time

Driver was polite and informative, seats were comfortable, there were USB chargers, clean toilet, bus was on time, and took me right in the center of the city so very convenient.

It was freezing cold inside the bus and every time someone opened the bathroom door it smelled really bad
