Bus was comfortable. However they said the air wasn't working so they opened the roof vent and we were blown to bits until another driver took over and I asked to have it closed...he turned on the air which seemed to work fine.

Great trip! Bus was a little late getting into Salmon Arm but arrived into Vancouver right on time. The bus was brand new and the driver was professional and friendly.

First and foremost the drivers were very pleasant and helpful. I really did not have any complaints to pass on...the scenery was beautiful to look at and the fact that I did not have to drive made all the difference.

It was good, the drivers were polite and professional. The trip was comfortable and the buses where clean. The only comment is, I had to change buses in Kamloops as I got on in Salmon Arm and wish that as passengers caring on to Vancouver that we would of been the first to board to continue on. Most of us when we got off, did not know that we had to enter the building as we all waited outside. Someone came out when the boarding was to start and informed us to line up in the building. So we all where at the back of the lineup from people that had booked to leave from kamloops. A suggestion maybe for connecting is that we are told by drivers into the building and that we can be the first to board when ready.
