We issued problems with boarding point (not precise, in a toll gate without any explanation) and with arrival point (Thet left us 10km before Kovalam junction).

Guy C

Bus was five hours late ( for a five and a half hour trip) It was very stressful waiting at the pick up point not knowing if the bus would arrive. The expected AC coach trip was actually a van, coach, taxi trip. This should be clear when booking
