I asked the driver if he was for me and he yelled he was on the phone. Then when off the phone I asked again and he said he was too busy, while he was doing nothing. He then pulled off and ended up being my bus. Terrible experience! Lost money and booked with another agency.

I had 4 hours brake in Brno waiting for connection bus. As fot that time, as I fell a sleap for 15 min on the benches (outside), someone stole my bags. I ended up in Police, made a statement, and 1.000 euro worth of personal belonging (its double than that, but Police counts 50%) is now gone. So, not good suggestion and someone should advise tourist about this, because Police informed me that it happens everyday same time there. I am not a local, so dont know that, and at first glance nice and peacefull Brno turned out to be nightmare for me. Regards
