Bus left 40 minutes late. Sat watching the driver smoke and talk on his phone while the departure time came and went. A passenger was vaping on the bus. Not a good experience at all.

The driver from Toronto to Buffalo was on training and he was so good it was hard to tell that he was on training. His instructor was also amazing we sat in the seat right behind him and they did so well together. The driver from Buffalo to Rochester was polite and slow amazing. The trip was smooth however wish that there was wifi but the bus was an older bus. But it worked out well as we were able to mean some new people on the trip. Amazing
