The bus itself was nice, however the bus took 3 hours longer than it was supposed to- taking stops that we were not supposed to take.

Bus drivers were rude from start. Bus was +2hrs later than arrival time for no reason other than drivers taking excessively long breaks. I lost my bag tag and driver made me pay him off to get bag back. Clearly taking advantage of me being a tourist. Would not recommend this company.
