ReviewsReviews for the bus trip from Berlin to Kiel
The customer opinion was acquired via Cimenio. Cimenio incentivises its users for giving an honest opinion and proving the booking with a photo of the travel ticket.
Advantages
It is a simple bookingThe fare is reasonableThe journey went according to planDisadvantages
Weak internet connection while drivingI booked the bus online and received the ticket digitally by email, I did not have to print the ticket. It was all a very easy booking. The prices are much cheaper compared to a train journey, so I like to travel by bus and have always been satisfied so far. The bus started according to the timetable and was not late. The journey time also passed quickly. Unfortunately, the internet connection on the bus was not always sufficient during the journey. I don't think it's too bad, though, because the price-performance ratio is first-class. I have no hesitation in recommending the bus trip.
