Adirondack Trailways

Pros: The driving was smooth, the rules for keeping silence on the bus was strict, so a very peaceful ride. The drivers/captains were very courteous and friendly which is really appreciated on trips like these. Cons: Seat belts, some kind of pit-stop for water etc. Tips: The terminal for Adirondack is in the South Wing basement in the Port Authority, currently. There aren't any signs at the street level. So arrive at the port authority with some extra time on your hands to look for the right spot.
