We got delayed in Heidelberg as bus never had enough seats... And had to wait for a bus for us that remainder approximately 14 pax with kids...bus never had air-conditioning the hottest long distance drive ever... But our driver was the nicest and made a plan for cool air and also got us to our destination on time
