Easy process, smooth ride, friendly and helpful employees. Respectful riders, good variety of food in club car. Only negative is that the upholstery on the chairs is quite worn especially on the window side seats.

Amtrak busride was the nicest transportation we experienced on our trip. The driver was friendly, helpful and accomidating. Very professional. This was much better than the squished seats at the back of Alaska Airlines after pushing us to a later flight. We were pleasantly surprised.
