About Maritime Bus

Maritime Bus is a Canadian bus company based in Charlottetown, on Canada’s east coast. Its passenger services are based around Canada’s ‘Maritimes’ (hence the name), which incorporates the provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia as well as Prince Edward Island.

Maritime Bus was founded in August 2012 and conducted its first passenger services in December of the same year. Maritime Bus serves 3048 routes and connect 52 towns and cities in Canada. Some of its most popular destinations include Halifax, Saint-John, and Dartmouth, plus Moncton, Dieppe, and Truro.

Focused on providing great value services, onboard facilities are limited to restrooms, so be sure to have your devices fully charged and entertainment to hand before taking your seat. However, the company still claims the most modern coach fleet in North America. In addition, prices on Maritime Bus coaches start at just $6.50.

Maritime Bus has been an official Wanderu partner since 2019. This means travelers have a reliable and easy-to-use place to check schedules and book cheap Maritime Bus tickets wherever they are in the world. Use Wanderu, and you won’t face any unexpected charges added at checkout!
