The trip took a bit longer than as described (6.5 hour and not 5.5 hour). Furthermore it was not the VIP-bus we expected. For example: when booking, the website said the bus would have tv-screens. This is not the case. It’s just a regular bus but with less people (the size is somewhere in between a minibus/van and a regular bus)
