The bus shook quite a lot during the trip and arrived 15 minutes later. Toilet was dirty and unflushed.
Bibigul I.
I was met by kind staff and helped out as I haven't traveled on a coach for the last 25/30years. The driver was very polite and a sensible driver. All in all a good trip.
Firdaus U.
The evening of our travel was very cold and unfortunately the heating was not working on the coach. It was blowing cold air. On the half way point when most of the passengers started complaining, National Coach driver decided to rectify the problem. It took a little while to fix whatever the problem was. From then on the journey was more comfortable.
