BlaBlaBus Paris Bordeaux recent customer reviews

The driver was polite & punctual. He is a very skilled driver & we had a wonderful trip to Bordeaux. One thing I would have liked is the option to purchase a data package onboard to stream Netflix or another movie channel. The complementary 150MB did not last very long.

the wifi didn't work. The other thing that I didn't like was the 2 stops that they did during the trip, they never said how long it was going to be.
