The trip was good, comfortable and on time, but we had to rebook our return journey because it had been booked from a different pick up.

First I missed my bus, I was there on time didn’t knew where to go exactly to get the coach. I had to purchase another ticket, which I think was unfair. We were delayed due to one person who had hot food on the .
