About Indian Trails

Indian Trails is an American intercity bus carrier that provides passenger transportation across Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin. The company is one of the key ground travel operators in the area, conducting about 2745 trips every day. The Indian Trails network features 49 cities, including Milwaukee, Chicago, Detroit, Kalamazoo, and Grand Rapids. The carrier also travels to Duluth, a city located near the border of Minnesota and Wisconsin. Depending on the route, the price of a one-way Indian Trails bus ticket ranges from €3.42 to €228.52.

Based in Owosso, MI, Indian Trails was founded in 1910. The carrier’s name comes from the fact that the majority of its buses used to run along US Highway 12, which is known as the Old Indian Trail. The company is also the primary bus travel provider in Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula after Greyhound suspended its service in the area in 2006.

While for me it was bad enough, because if I didn’t get on that bus I couldn’t go home for the weekend, but for the group of people that were traveling together and almost got split it would have been very bad. The weather prevented the bus from getting anywhere in a timely manner, which isn’t anyone’s fault, but knowing the weather in advance would have been nice. The weather and the delay due to being overbooked cause me to arrive at my stop closer to 12:40 than 10:40.More
Tips
If you are going on a long trip, take the seats in the back, they will likely be clear towards the end, especially after the first couple popular stops. It makes for a comfortable open space if you end up being the only one back there.If you are going on a long trip, take the seats in the back, they will likely be clear towards the end, especially after the first couple popular stops.

Timeliness. The bus was over an hour late. More legroom. My knees were against the hard seat in front of me. Fortunately, there was no one next to me so I could tun my legs towards the empty seat.Timeliness. The bus was over an hour late. More legroom. My knees were against the hard seat in front of me.

Driver will very knowledgeable and willing to share that with passengers. While her jokes were lame she did give us a disclaimer that stated that fact. Great driver service. Perhaps the best driver I’ve experienced as a 50yr old. Driver will very knowledgeable and willing to share that with passengers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Indian Trails buses have WiFi?

Yes, Indian Trails offers WiFi on their buses. Although most trips with Indian Trails will have WiFi as advertised, some buses might not come equipped with WiFi and onboard WiFi can lose its connection in rural areas. We recommend you bring a book or download a movie just to play it safe. Indian Trails WiFi is generally best used for surfing the web, checking emails and chatting with friends; you shouldn’t count on the WiFi to binge watch your favorite show.

Are there power points or USB points on the bus?

Yes, there are power points onboard Indian Trails buses. You can generally find one or two sockets per row of seats, so be a good traveller and check if your seat neighbour might want to charge up their devices as well. With the onboard power points, you can charge both a computer and USB devices with a power point USB converter that typically comes with most phones and tablets.

Since Indian Trails might sometimes use replacement bus vehicles, not all trips are guaranteed to have power points. We recommend to bring a power bank to charge your phone for all trips over 2 hours, just in case.

On a typical day, Indian Trails has 2745 scheduled bus trips in total. However, the exact departure and arrival times vary depending on the day and route. The best way to find the exact schedule for your trip is to use the search tool on this page.
