The Canada Bus Calgary Edmonton recent customer reviews
I always had great experience with Canada Bus, but this time bus was freezing cold, I asked the driver he said there is some technical fault and he is not able to turn off the AC. It was quite cold inside the bus.
the service from Calgary to Edmonton was smooth - the seats were comfortable with enough leg room. The bus was also on time. Wifi was good all through the journey.
There was a 1 hour of waiting in cold weather for the bus to arrive and pick us up, and it arrived 2 hours later than what it was supposed to. I lost my meetings because of that. There driver, although nice, didn't know how to turn on the heater and it was freezing cold. Was an awful experience. Will never use the Canada Bus again.

Ebus Calgary Edmonton recent customer reviews
The bus wasn’t on time they did give us a notice that it was gonna be late and fastest trip ever
The driver was fantastic! We had the unfortunate timing of driving through a snow storm, but he reassured all the passengers that despite delays we'll get there alright. He handled the roads with finesse and I felt safe the entire time. Great experience!
The actual bus ride was great but no one notified me that the bus stop I was departing from had moved locations so I first showed up at the original location as indicated on my ticket and then had to hurry and get get an Uber to the new location once i figured out they had moved.

Cold Shot Calgary Edmonton recent customer reviews
The service was reasonably good but could've been improved by providing the passengers with more individual space within the vehicle. Also I don't feel its reasonable to let any animals on board aside from certified guide dogs.
Bus broke down mid trip in red deer, took 1 hour from sitting in bus getting cold to get cabs to take us somewhere warm while we wait for a new bus
I will ever use this company ever again very unprofessional from the moment we left fifteen minutes late from Calgary , then we arrived in Red Deer which we were told only a fifteen minutes brake but to my surprise the driver took twenty five minutes also pulled to the side of the round about road very unsafely statrted to argue with her supervisor on the phone 📞 we all told her to drive so finally she got us on our first stop at 10:46 am instead of a noted time of arrival at 10:00, they should not even have unqualified drivers riding their buses
