Bus is a convenient way of travel no matter whether you need to get to a neighboring town a couple of hours away or venture further afield crossing the whole country. Whatever your budget, buses have you covered. Express buses offer the most affordable ticket price for travellers who have very little money to spend. VIP options are geared toward those who do not want to compromise on comfort. Before you jump on a bus, make sure you choose the type of service which suits you best. For a long-haul trip look for a VIP or first-class coach which provides non-stop service to your destination or just call a minor number of stations along the way. Express or local buses in many cases may prove an acceptable choice for shorter trips, but longer rides are often not the best buy. Study the timetable before going as many long-haul destinations are served by night buses, and some offer wider seats or sleeper berths for such travels. Make an online reservation for your bus ticket with Euro Bus. Other travellers’ reviews will help you to choose the best ticket and coach class.

Euro Bus Top Destinations
Euro Bus buses ply a number of routes and here is the list of some of the most popular ones:
One of the best things about bus travel is that you can almost tailor-make your trip adjusting it to your requirements for privacy and comfort. Different classes and types of buses cater to the different needs of travellers. The cheapest trips are normally offered by standard-class buses. They may be called local, express or ordinary. These are a good choice for shorter trips. Sleepers or VIP coaches are good both for longer and overnight trips. They may offer berths or wide soft reclining seats, sometimes with built-in massage options, blankets, soft drinks, and snacks, or more substantial meals on board or during toilet or refuelling stops. Travelling by night buses allows you to save on a hotel room, but to ensure the most comfortable ride do choose the class of your bus wisely. Prices always depend on the distance you ride and the type of coach. For some, even shorter trips, it is worth investing some extra money and buying a seat on a VIP bus as it can save you twice as much time as you spend travelling by an ordinary bus.
Travel by Bus: Pros & Cons
Pros of Bus Travel
Bus is the best choice to get to destinations that are not connected by rail or planes. The network of buses often covers almost the whole country, and their routes are well and long-established.
Opposite to air travel and sometimes rail travel, taking a bus does not require arriving at the bus station much in advance. Check-in, even on international routes, does not take much time. Luggage allowances are usually very traveller-friendly, and the fee for extra luggage, if limits are set, is normally not very high.
Bus tickets can be more affordable compared to air or fast train tickets. There is always a choice of ticket classes for all pockets. Cheaper standard options may be a bit slow and do not offer top comfort, but anyway acceptable and bring you to your destination. On longer routes, toilets or toilet stops as well as snacks, water, and sometimes toiletries and blankets are almost always included in the price.
If you are ready to spend more, some VIP coaches offer seating comparable to business class on a plane with wide soft reclining seats, blankets, fewer passengers, and many other perks to make your trip a pleasant journey.
Cons of Bus Travel
Newer intercity bus terminals are very often located out of the city close to bigger highways to allow buses to avoid city congestion. Unfortunately, it may create extra challenges for travellers, too. Getting to such a terminal may be a problem as in some destinations there are restrictions on vehicles allowed to enter the terminal, and you will have to use special carriers to get there. This results in higher costs as prices may be inflated. Also do calculate extra time if you are travelling during rush hours, especially if you are not familiar with the traffic situation at your starting point.
Buses are probably the means of transport which runs out of schedule more often than trains or planes. They are heavily dependent on the road situation which sometimes can be unpredictable – accidents, road construction works, detours, etc. This is especially true for travels during weekends, high season, or national holidays. Do keep this in mind and do not plan tight connections.
Travelling on certain routes or during the most popular periods may require advanced booking. Bear in mind that it is not always possible to show up at the bus station and hop on the next bus – tickets may well be all sold out, so organize your trip accordingly.

Driver didn't have the directions - I had to navigate him for 2 hours in the front seat. The first hour of the ride was comfortable enough - the chairs were nice and there was lots of space considering how little we paid. It was clean, and had MUCH more space than the Euro star bus we took from Tirana to Ohrid 3 days earlier. When we requested to stop by a bathroom just if we passed by a gas station after we crossed the border, no rush, and the driver decided to completely turn around in the middle of the border line, proceeding to turn back and drive 30 minutes back the way we came to get us to a specific gas station. Although we appreciated that he wanted to give us a bathroom break, instead of going back to the same border crossing, he changed the route up to go a different way. This wasn't a huge issue, except he didn't have internet to navigate him, and got lost in the Albanian mountains very quickly. I had to hop in the front seat and navigate for the last 2 hours of the ride. If I didn't have any cell service, I have no idea what we would have done. What should have been a chill 3 hour ride (even on the different route that he took) took over 5 because of how slow he was driving (always half the speed limit), and one of the passengers almost missed her flight because of this. Kind of a nightmare.

Backpacking. The driver facilitated a complex multi change of mini bus / terminals in tirana. Cancelled my 5am bus , for which I had to get up at 3am for ! Put me on a mini bus to tirana , then had to change mini bus again to get me to the right terminal for my destination. 3 minibuses and then dropped me 3.5 km away from the bus stop which the 5am bus would dropped me right by my hotel . Overall I wasn't impressed.

It was one of the better bus rides I’ve taken in the Balkans as the driver was kind and friendly. Overall pleasant experience. We were an hour and a half late but traffic and delays at border crossing. If the bus was full it would have been more uncomfortable as there was not much room by your legs.

All good on the Eurobus to Ohrid. Buying the ticket was easy and the E version was happily accepted by the bus driver. The bus leaves Tirana from the brand new and very clean East Bus Terminal of Tirana, which was an easy 10euro taxi ride from the centre. We departed on time and we arrived on time, and by the way this is a spectacular journey with some stunning scenery! There is some major road building going on and we passed through some Industrial zones as well. Really enjoyed the trip.

Having found the correct bus station, the rest of our trip was very . The bus driver was polite and very careful with his driving. The journey was comfortable and the scenery exceptional. Newcomers to Albania and travel we did not realise there were so many bus stations and it had not been pointed out from which bus station we would be departing. Thankful To a very kind taxi driver who transported us from the nightmare bus depo another taxi driver took us to!

It Was on time. We were travelling from struga to tirana and waiting in GPS location from the ticket. Fortunatelly we asked a man from eurolines agency and it Turned out that is no space in our bus so he called a taxi to the central bus station (we didnt had to pay for taxi, taxi driver Was waiting with us 4 the bus). The advice for a future is to Give a information for passengers that they have to go to the agencyjne before trip.

Throwing out 2 km before arrival. The passenger were very friendly. The driver stopped without any explanations at Tamaro Bus Stop, Ohrid, 2 km away from the official arrival at Ohrid, Bus terminal Vele Markov 9, where my friends were waiting for me. Instead of a surprise, I experienced a disaster. Never again GetByBus.

To be totally honest I was heavily delayed by over 1 hour, we had very long delays at the border. The coach was comfortable. I did not like waiting at the border a very long time due to immigration problems for 3 passengers that needed a visa The problems in waiting at the border so long forced me to miss a very important business meeting. I think because I am a very regular user of Get by bus I should have a refund on this trip.

Ohrid to Tirana by Eurobus. On time. From the time his colleague boarded the bus in Struga until we arrived in Tirana, the only time the driver never stopped talking was when his colleague was on the phone. It was very annoying. Your driver answered at least five phone calls and one FaceTime during our trip. In our country, use of a cellphone while driving comes with a serious fine. I can’t say that we felt unsafe but your driver’s behaviour at the wheel was very unprofessional. A very disappointing experience.
