Cold Shot Athabasca Edmonton recent customer reviews
Everyone respected each other and it was a good ride. Only part i didnt like is the cold feet. I have poor circulation and I had to jitter me leg once in a while to heat it with more blood flow. Other than that I would ride the Cold shot bus again.

Why is the wifi locked ? Thats not needed. It's a bus how can someone steal ur wifi. Super annoying
Skyler M.
Once on the road it was smooth enough as far as the highway. On the negative, the bus was cold and heat was turned off, the bus was 35 minutes late due to the driver not knowing the route and taking the wrong turn, the driver almost rear ended a vehicle turning off of one of the city streets, and there was nowhere to plug in or en route wifi contrary to what was advertised.
