Sylvain AEl bus muy bien para dormir, aunque la carretera no está del todo bien...
Mucha espera entre la estación del bus y el puerto y después otra vez espera del barco.

Abbiegail AWe arrived 30 mins prior to our departure time and the amount of people getting on the bus slowly started to raise. There was no way everyone was fitting in one bus, turns out there were 2 buses but everyone who got there later than us got on the first bus which we thought was unfair as we had been waiting before everyone else. There was no communication from the company about what was going on, it was every man for themselves. They should’ve had a system to allow the people who were there waiting first to board the first bus. Anyway, second bus arrived and we were disappointed to say the least, there were no curtains so that meant no privacy. The driver was also stopping EVERY 30 MINS!! They also stopped to load fish all on the bottom of the bus so our bags didn’t have the most pleasant smell at the end. The drivers deserve more money too because the buses are in bad condition and they genuinely can’t see 20m ahead of them at night. Wouldn’t bother booking this company again, they don’t care they just want your money.

Lorena DThe driver was going very fast and because of the state of the races you were constantly sleeping in bed, and there was even a moment when I thought I was going to fall out of bed. Sleeping 1 hour on a 12 hour trip, horrible.

Travelling by bus essentials
- If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
- VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
- Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
- If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
- Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
- To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
- As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
- Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
- If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
