Adirondack Trailways

Pros: Driver resptable , polite, On time safe driver. Cons: They could add stop at toronto international airport instead of going all the down town . So folks can get off closer to home . Downtown is too far and weekdays traffic is insane..... It would save lot of time and Hassel. Tips: Sure recommend this bus svc. I would definitely go again use this service I am glad it's in place. It has a handicap wheel chair access inti the bus and seats and it's great cause most bussed do not have this facility.

It was my birthday. I was so excited to be going to Toronto,(first timer) but they they didn't let my partner through (old issues that need to be expunged dealing with his kids) so I stuck with him I lost a lot of nonrefundable money 😔. I was kind of leary about this new site, but I was pleasantly pleased and discovered a new site Wanderu that I'm sure I will be using more. I had no issues with the site and loved the price and options it gave me. So I gave my personal trip a 😭 but the site itself was quick and did save me some money so I lost less than what I could have. Wanderu get a 5 in stars so far 😊. So technically I didn't like my trip but it seems like it would have been a satisfying one with everything else 😏.
