Everything on the bus was perfect from watching movies to the right driver. We just did not receive a mail and we paid for it. That was my only problem. Everything else was superb.

The return was great, but the first way we arrived late cause we had a long wait in one stop - still don’t understand why - and also a long stop for coffee.
