The driver was driving far to fast and it was like a rollercoaster ride breaking and pulling away needs a bit of retraining

Although the bus left late and the weather was terrible the driver did a wonderful job and there was no additional delay.

Extremely friendly and helpful busdriver, who was wililng to stop for a girl that got sick and kept his nerves of steel although he had to take a detour because of a major accident and drove through Cornwall's tiniest streets and lanes! A great experience, in the end we were not even late!
