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
The ticket is cheapBooking is simpleThe journey is stress-freeDisadvantages
Sometimes weak internet on the bus during the journeyI find travelling by bus really commendable as it is easy and stress-free. Already the booking is effortlessly doable online and there is always a good price, especially compared to other means of travel. Sure, it is advisable to book in advance, but I find the prices for a last-minute booking also okay. The ticket is valid digitally and does not need to be printed. During the journey, everything was stress-free and quiet. Hardly any foot traffic and no loud conversations between passengers. After a quiet journey, the bus arrived at the destination on time and I was very satisfied with the whole trip. Highly recommended and to be commended for the great value for money.
