The journey was described as okay by multiple reviewers. However, there were concerns about an intoxicated passenger harassing solo female travelers. Some mentioned issues with bus comfort, such as lack of amenities like tablets and power outlets, limited seat space, drivers not speaking English, and the need for more rest stops on long journeys.

The journey was okay. But there was an intoxicated passenger who kept harassing me. It was scary for me as a solo female traveller.

Bus au confort aléatoire : parfois pas de tablettes, prises HS, espacement des sièges réduits , chauffeurs ne parlant pas anglais. Il serait aussi nécessaire de prévoir au moins 1 arrêt dans une station-service pour un voyage de 12 heures!
