The driver wasn't professional. The driver didn't speak nicely to the customers. He was even mocking an old woman for not showing her ticket quickly enough.

During booking process, the price rose TWICE between selecting the trip and completing payment. Bus arrived in chamonix 30 minutes late. Passenger next to us was very sick, coughing and sneezing, and not covering her mouth. Wish the bus company had been able to provide a mask to her and others, or at least have had information online requiring passengers to confirm their health.
