The route was awful and the bus was late which made me late for my catamaran. Also it was packed and people were standing in the bus.

Unreliable information on arrival time. The driver was helpful, the journey smooth and the scenery fantastic. When buying ticket on line, well in advance of the actual departure date, arrival time on ticket at Split was given at 1420 and that the journey was direct. Departure time was as scheduled. However we arrived at 1545 in Split as the driver passed and stopped through several villages along the way. I had a Uber booked for 1430 in Split. As I missed the appointment I was charged a cancellation fee of almost the same amount by Uber and had to make another reservation at arrival in Split. When I inquired about the change in itinerary at the ticket office in Masarska where the coach stopped for 20 minutes, the women at the office shook her head, smiled and said that she cannot do anything. I would expect that the information provided when booking on line would be factual.

Le car s'est arrêté dans toutes les petites stations balnéaires (ce qui n'était pas précisé sur la reservation). Nous sommes arrivés avec plus de 3h de retard sur l'horaire prévu (trajet de 4h entre Dubrovnik et Split qui a duré près du double). Trop de monde dans le bus, sur certains tronçons des dizaines de personnes étaient debout car pas de places assises. Et en plus on nous a demandé un supplément de 2 euros par bagages (pas précisé non plus à la reservation).

Driver smokes and talks on phone while driving!? lot of space from Dubrovnik to Makarska, pleasant temperature in the bus. As the title says - driver smoked 4 cigarettes while driving from Dubrovnik to Makarska. Then we had another driver and another bus. This one had copilot and wasn't smoking and was off phone. First driver, also used mobile phone a lot while driving. He was aware that this is against the law because he was hiding the phone when we saw police car coming from opposite direction.

Le chauffeur était très désagréable, le bus avait 1h20 de retard. Le bus était surchargé, il n’y avait pas assez de place assise pour tous le monde, une honte. Je ne recommande pas la compagnie.

Seats were nice and comfortable, the ride was smooth and not "bumpy". The journey took almost 1,5h longer than was meant to, the bus driver screamed at customers, the breaks were too short (only two 5-10min breaks during a 4,5h ride), and the journey took longer due to the bus stopping many times to pick up people from every small, local stop. Additionally, we forgot a bag to the bus and the drivers can't be contacted to get our stuff back.
