Pros: Our pick up was exactly on time, and we arrived 5 minutes early. Our air conditioner was working great on a hot summer day, and so was the buss' toilet. I was worried because of other bad reviews, but everything was great. Cons: Our driver wasn't the most friendly guy, but he was doing his job well and was punctual at all the stops. Also, at least one person, maybe more, put their pop on the ground and it spilled and rolled all around the floor of the bus leaving it grossly sticky. Install cup holders! Tips: This buss trip and company did right by us, as travelers just be considerate of the facts that this is a shared space!
