Truly excellent. Not only was the bus very comfortable, we were also handed complimentary water and snacks to start the ride. Then, at the first stop, we ate at a buffet for free. We arrived overall on time (20min delay at our pickup point due to traffic). I believe the option we had was “Executive”. We appreciated the service and recommend it warmly!

Good information about where to wait for the bus. The bus ride was super comfortable. The seats are amazing! Friendly crew, good driver. Toiletbreaks & lunchbreak (included). Only the information about my drop off was wrong... but not a big deal.
