Greyhound Worcester New York City recent customer reviews

The bus was an hour and a half late, and the driver who picked up the passengers from Worcester offered no explanation as to why the bus was so late. Despite not giving any reason for being late, he took his time smoking a cigarette before resuming the drive leaving Worcester. He also was unnecessarily rude to several passengers and said nothing during the trip.

Getting this bus was a nightmare. No signs that say “OurBus” and the stop is near a big bus station with greyhound buses etc but “OurBus” doesn’t pick up there it picks up on some random street in the city. Itnwas two hours late both trips (there and back) avoid at all costs
