A trip that has many stops from Bulgaria to Athens many hours the bus was old, dirty, and the drivers weren't friendly. The seats aren't comfortable at all there wasn't any wi-fi and the same trip different companies they do it with 1.5 hours less with better seats with wi-fi free water more new busses and more friendly employees with 5-6 € more. With some words I don't recommend this company at all and many complaints from other friends for this company.
