Peter Pan Washington Boston recent customer reviews
The first bus driver was awesome. The second one was nice however there were five passengers being overly loud in the back about 80% of the way from Philly on. The bus driver not once addressed it and everyone seemed discomforted most of the way because of them. Also, we were almost an hour late to Boston.

While booking the ticket i was not informed that the bus is not direct. I had to wait at the station in mew york for 3 hours. Would appreciate if waiting time/halt is informed at time of booking and not after issuing ticket. Also there was no staff at new york at 4 am to help or guide.

My train was delayed and then I missed it because I didn’t see where I was supposed to go. I had to get on a different train and pay more money. Very confusing
