Pros: The buses were nice and clean e, and everyone was well behaved. We stopped for food a couple of times and everyone had enough time to get what they needed without a lengthy wait to get back on the road again. We actually arrived ahead of time . Very happy I will definitely recommend to friends and family. Cons: When transfeiing from one bus to another you might want to announce the stops the other bus will be making. Tips: Be onetime and check your ticket for your seat number and bring a neck pillow.
