I like it just the waiting if we are waiting almost 45 to be late but I enjoy the long ride

The traffic isn’t greyhound’s fault, I do wish they had given me a more reasonable time estimation regarding rush hour traffic. I would have eaten if I had known my 2 hour trip was actually 5 hours.

The staff was very helpful and made sure I got to where I needed to be. The bus driver however, got lost.
