The trip itself was fine – the bus was very old, dirty and stained seats – the stops were very unclear and the whole bus stunk of cigarettes
Marshall S.
Bus was late by almost an hour and a half. Also no place to charge your phone on the bus.
Benjamin K.
Everything was great, except I got really scared when the van broke and the driver had to drive like 5km/h. He managed to fix it within a few minutes and then a half an hour later when the driver started driving 130km/h or even faster to get us on the destination on time I thought I will pass out out of fear. The van was comfortable, the driver is extremely friendly and I liked him very much.
