According to customer reviews, the bus drivers were friendly. However, there was a replacement driver who ran a red light at high speed while already in Turkey. This caused concern for passengers as it could have resulted in a serious accident. Additionally, one review mentioned that the bus from Thessaloniki to Istanbul was advertised as having a toilet but did not actually have one, causing inconvenience for the passenger who had to find an alternative way of reaching their destination.
Drivers were friendly. Bus was a bit dirty. We made two extra stops; one to pick someone up (on a random exit off the highway) and one to drop someone off on the side of the highway. Customs went smoothly.
The trip had to include wifi food and drink and everything was missing and i was charged more
the bus drivers were very nice but the younger driver that replaced the main one had crosseded the red traffic light and he was in a very high speed while we were already in Turky. If there was a car crossing from the opposite green light side then definitely a disaster accident could've happend but thanks God there was not. Most of the riders were asleep, it was a bit after 03am then.
