Vibasa San Sebastian Barcelona recent customer reviews
Driver was super agressive and rude. She was also checking her phone while driving.
1 out of 5 stars
Lucas D.
Vibasa staff was very unhelpful: several buses were scheduled to leave for Barcelona at around the same time and none of the drivers knew about the others. This made it very confusing when passengers for bus 2 (my bus) were waiting to board. One driver was very agitated about the situation and even rude/loud with passengers. When bus 2 finally did arrive (apparently delayed due to weather conditions, but at no point were passengers officially informed about this), it left San Sebastian station more than an hour later than it was scheduled to. Passengers were totally lost as to whether our bus would arrive or not, and when.
2 out of 5 stars
Denyse D.
The driver of the bus I took was okay, but one of the drivers we talked to earlier (driver of Bus no. 1) was very dismissive of passengers’ concerns and seemed very irritated when people were asking him about the status of the bus. The bus ride itself was okay; the bus was clean and I didn’t feel unsafe during the trip. The driver was much nicer than the driver of Bus No. 1. I just wish the WiFi password was given to us though. But that’s a minor thing.
