It was BigSky. I had a wonderful experience and drive home. The bus was on time like it said it would be an hour late and it cake exactly an hour late which I loved.
Passengers have shared that the bus trips are generally comfortable and enjoyable, with interactive drivers enhancing the travel experience. However, there were concerns about unclear scheduling information leading to early arrivals at stops and passengers leaving trash on seats after exiting.
Unfortunately the bus was over 2 hours late without any communication as to why and we were continuously calling and was put on hold, the bus ride it self was not bad, but because of their tardiness i had to give it a 1 star

Very bad service! Waited for HOURS on the bus to arrive.
I was lied to multiple times about why the shuttle was late.
First told the driver got stooped by the police and was an hour away.
Later was told that the bus was under maintenance?? I mean come on!!
Waited a total or 3 hours for the bus to arrive.
