The bus we got was a lot lot older than the one in the pics! We stopped about 7 or 8 times to pick people up and drop people off in the 5 hour journey but didn’t stop once for a toilet break or food which is pretty poor! There was a toilet on the bus but should still stop. We got a bottle of water and a small cake. Not sure I’d trust this company again to book for future.

Driver drove much too fast, bus pedal for brakes was a wooden stick (lol), we stopped twice for restrooms and less than 5 min and nothing decent to buy snacks or drinks with a 5h drive ..
