Greyhound Louisville Minneapolis recent customer reviews

We will never use greyhound again. The bus from Louisville never even showed. My arrival to Minnesota was changed from 445 am to 545 pm which means I didn’t get to see my sister and nephew who I am visiting to mourn the sudden death of my Father. This has been a horrible experience and something should be done to remedy this immediately.
