Anonymous Grumpy driver, hot, dangerous. A drive i’ll never forget. We were not aware that tickets needed to be printed. There were other passengers who also hadn’t printed their tickets. The driver tried to kick people off the bus who had paid but not printed their tickets. This happened for 45 minutes. So we didn’t leave the bus stop till 9am for our 8:15am bus. The luggage storage was expensive 8 bam. Parts of the drive the driver opened the door to the bus, so we were driving with the door wide open. Unfortunately I was sitting in the front seat so right next to the open door and my seatbelt didn’t work so I felt quite unsafe. Passengers asked if we could have a break to go to the toilet and get food, which the bus driver refused. He later stopped for a 15 minute break. It was extremely hot with limited ac / fans. The driver smoked the whole drive. Wild ride!

Anonymous Air con. Cheap, easy and one stop made for toilet. It was a blistering hot day, the bus was full and the bus air con wasn't on. At first stop I asked the driver and he nodded and still was the same. After 4 hours it seemed to cool down but probably more to do with the setting sun than air con kicking in. Very uncomfortable!
