Tania our guide was lovely, full of information and friendly. We went to lots of places and really utilised the time we had. There was enough time at each place to see what we wanted to see and then we moved on. The whole trip was informative with stunning views.

The bus was very comfortable. Although we were delayed for a while when getting on because one of the seats was broken (I hope they can check these things in advance next time), the problem was solved relatively quickly. The tour guide was excellent, with detailed explanations and a pleasant voice hhh. I would still consider choosing Bustravel for my next visit.
