Anonymous Great but. Bus in time at departure, easy to spot and straightforward process to onboard. I bought mi ticket to Geneva bus station but the bus went first to the airport which caused a delay of 30 minutes on estimated time of arrival. They want you that the driver can switch which station they stop at first but they don’t tell you it means a possible 30minute delay.

Anonymous Bus driver was excellent! We were VERY late arriving to airport! Driver said he was goi g to go to airport first, then his boss told him to go to the city first! That made us 30min late getting to airport! That is NOT ok! We had a flight to catch and that made it much more stressful!

Anonymous Comfortable and pleasant journey. Driver drove carefully and navigated through roadworks safely. Coach was comfortable and it was a pleasant journey with plenty of scenery to look at. Only grumble is that our flight was cancelled so I had to change the bus time. Swiss Tours were unable to transfer the tickets so we had to pay again.

Anonymous The bus was clean and on time. The bus was on time. As i had to return to Geneva a week earlier I didn't like the fact that I couldn't amend my original bus ticket, therefore having to buy another ticket, spending more money I cant afford.
