Coastliner Leeds Scarborough recent customer reviews
1st issue: 3.5 hour trip from Leeds to Scarborough, no toilet breaks (there was supposed to be one in Malton, but it was closed). Kind of tough going. 2nd issue: on the return journey, I had the tickets on my phone. The driver said to scan the ticket on his machine. I tried, but it kept bringing up the contactless payment feature on the phone, making it impossible to scan the tickets. He blamed it on me, saying he doesn't have that feature on his phone. Ok?! So the bus doesn't have the facilities to scan its own tickets? Totally bizarre. Terrible attitude from the driver.

My trip was amazing as I purchased an all day fare from Leeds; but boarded from York. I highly recommend this amazing service with very comfortable seats and beautiful views on route through North Yorkshire.
