Rider Express Vancouver Kamloops recent customer reviews

It is necessary to establish a rule "it is forbidden to eat food with a strong smell on the bus". Since the ventilation system on the bus is weak, the smell lasts for a long time. This causes discomfort, nausea and deterioration of well-being for passengers who travel.

The bus driver tried so hard to replace the parts so we all arrived at our destination safely. But took a long time.

Thanks to the brave drivers. Although we are super delayed and late, like eight hours on the road from Vancouver to Kamloops. This is the only line still operating due to the terrible weather condition. I appreciate the drivers hard working and the service.
