ReviewsReviews for the bus trip from Lüneburg to Hamburg
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
SocketsFriendly driversNot many unnecessary stopsDisadvantages
Duration of the journeyFrequent lack of air conditioningWindows often open in winterThere is no wifi on the bus, the sockets worked but there weren't many available. The comfort was okay, but I would take the train on this route. However, if you want to go further than Hamburg Hbf, I would choose the train. Very good value for money.
