Pros: The driver got us there safe and fast it was comfortable clean and the driver was very respectful and helpful no problems at all. Cons: Maybe have a bus that takes people with pets there was a big huge dog and little dog but the dogs were cool the whole ride but they had to keep holding the big dog back so he don't want to get over when he's looking at people he's trying to climb over the seats that is the only thing there should be something special about where the dogs have to ride because some people is afraid of dogs I am one of them I have dogs but when you don't know the other dog it becomes very scary especially a bus ride it's another way that these people are getting these service dogs that really don't need them I can see if it was a handicapped person or a person blind or something these young people were totally fine I know we can't tell her what but they're getting these service dogs certifications off computers it was very uncomfortable in that way with the big huge dog trying to get over the seats that's only thing that I've never experienced a big dog or any dog on a bus ride. Tips: My tip is the above comment.
