Metro Turizm Samsun Trabzon recent customer reviews

People take seats on the bus as they want, no one controls it, I have already encountered this many times. The numbers on the seats mean nothing to them and then during the journey and as new passengers arrive, transfers begin. Also, the bus was late once again and after that took constant breaks so that the drivers drank tea and smoked
