BlaBlaBus Zürich Brussels recent customer reviews

they stole my new Lacoste hat . many romains in bus now as passengers. its not your fault but they begging cigarettes and others things , always standing , not sitting, night time, poeple sleep but they are awake. and also we need to check our luggages evrytime time we stop to pick up passengers. i think now lots of insecurity growing up in flixbus or blablacar night busses.
