I enjoyed our professional driver/ safe,efficient, friendly, informative got a good driver it's gonna be a great ride ! Thanks 😊
Paul H.
Not very positive, First the bus pickup in Fort Myers was 1 hour late and the arrival time in Ocala Fl was 2 hours late. Also, the bus was not very clean and I sat in the rear and there was a constant vibration at highway speed which was probably an out of balance rear tire. Will probably not use the redcoach again.
