Pros: The driver was very professional and friendly. Got us there ahead of time. Made sure that everyone knew him and made sure to interact with the passengers making the trip and overall comfortable and trusting experience. Cons: The price of the ticket could be lower just so it’s more affordable then that competition, due to the experience i understand why it’s more than the alternative buses but lowering it would definitely get more sales. Tips: Bring a pillow 😭.
