Bus was on time, clean and the driver was excellent, the stop halfway to Siracusa was appropriate and onboard wifi was handy.

The bus was on time- a comfortable and efficient service. The negative was that all the passengers except us two managed to get tickets from the city centre whereas we were only offered the option of catching the bus from Via Oreto Orsi so had to pay for a taxi to get there and were then only left with the worst seats
