The bus driver did an amazing job driving . Please let him know he was the best bus driver I ever had and he was very sweet

Please ensure that there is more signage "Rider Express" indicating where the pickup location is. On the ticket it should indicate it's near an Orthodontist office in the mall. Since the pickup location is not where all the other busses arrive.

At first they re-scheduled my trip to the next day. I had to book again then the next day it was 1 hour late. Didn’t provide any water. Not a good experience

Prantika P.

July 20, 2024

The pick up point was confusing. YMCA was not the pick up point and there were other busses. Maybe a sign on the right spot would help. Construction on the drop off point had to detour the bus. Not your fault but maybe have a secondary spot in case the first is not available The trip itself and the driver totally awesome.
