Greyhound Knoxville Memphis recent customer reviews
I didn’t enjoy it at all bc I didn’t get to make the trip. The bus was delayed and I was not informed.
Billy T.
The bus arrived at Knoxville late. Then the driver didnt show up for work. We were suppose to depart at 12, and we didnt board the bus until after 2:30. The one and only good thing about this trip was that the driver that they found was very nice and polite.
