The bus was on time and the first driver was really helpful, however, when drivers were switched things changed. They guy was extremely rude. In one of the stops I had to run to catch the bus as he was leaving before the set time and stopped at the lights, but my friend got lost for a mere 1 min at one of the stops and the driver didn't want to stop to pick him up and kept going leaving him behind with no luggage or anything. This was Jun 19th. I will never ever ride with this company again. It was my first time and my last one.
Based on 561 reviews, the company was rated 4.5 stars on Busbud. Travellers were especially satisfied with the ticket access and the timeliness but often complained with the power outlets. Vivo Green ticket prices on this trip start at US$145
