Greyhound Denver Vail recent customer reviews

No communication from Greyhound staff about departure issues. Various people were told various times about when the bus was leaving. The bathroom line was long at our rest stop and the driver made it feel Li Kline he was leaving me and one other gentleman behind. Not sure if he was joking or serious but it wasn’t funny

My 2 hour bus ride was 5 hours late. I did not ride the bus. I took an uber instead. My ticket could not be refunded. What a waste.
