I must say, this is my fourth time with EBus and my experience has been nothing but positive. I have family and friends in Kelowna. So usually go up there for the holidays. I've found flight costs so high these days and EBus is always very affordable. When I account for travel to the airport, checking in etc. It's really not that much longer. I just download some shows to my phone and enjoy the ride. Everytime I've gone it's been during the winter. So lots of snow on some of the passes. The drivers have been nothing but professional and made me feel completely safe. I think I might just stick to the bus over flying when I can't drive myself. Great work.

Excellent ! We felt more like travelling by airplane, and not to forget the professional with a tint of very humorous driver Colin’s directions and info about the trip. We loved our first ever longest bus drive in BC and decided we will repeat the experience with my entire family and friends soon.
