Greyhound Sacramento Truckee recent customer reviews

Our bus arrived three hours late. The driver was stopping the bus every 30 minutes for at least 30 minutes claiming there was a problem with it, but then every time it worked. At one point he called the police needlessly to corral us back on the bus. We didnt get to our destination until 7 hours after our scheduled arrival time.
