I enjoyed the charging units. I didn’t enjoy when the driver kept driving reckless when he wanted to overtake the trucks

Worst trip: Bus arrived 2 hours late, while competitors had approx 8 busses arrive and depart, no tv service as advertised and there was extremely poor ventilation that we were forced to use the roof emergency, which couldn't close throughout the night - also arrived 4 hours late.
