I enjoyed everything, most of all conduct that the drivers handle themselves with and the assurance if safety during the journey, any other thing was somewhat a perquisite, if I may call it, of being in an Express bus. Thank you.

It was great, we arrived on time than expected. The only problem is not given time to rest have breaks. The bus only stops at bus stations for people to unlift.
