Peter Pan Worcester Philadelphia recent customer reviews

I was very disappointed. I missed my next bus because a Peter Pan bus was late arriving to the station. They didn’t have the cutting to at least let the other bus wait 5 or 10 minutes until we arrived. I then had to wait another 2 hours to be put onto the next bus.
