Greyhound Canada
Ripped Off

I was in Vancouver and on my way to Naniamo and wanted to go from Downtown Vancouver to Downtown Nanaimo. I approach the counter and purchased two tickets for $45.00 Canadian. I boarded the bus and we drove off to the Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal. There were several seniors on the same bus. We arrived at the ferry terminal (still in Vancouver) and we were all instructed to vacate the bus, grab our bags and proceed to the ticket booth, the seniors had a few bags to carry and not very many others could help because we all had a few bags, which was the reason for taking the downtown to downtown service. We all dragged our bags and proceeded to board the ferry.

In Nanaimo we all had to wait on the otherside for the next bus to take us into Nanaimo, all the while dragging our luggage all over the place. It was a hassel for my travel partner and I and we both wondered what the seniors were going thru. What the heck did I pay $45.00 for? Hassels? Stress? Fatigue? We felt for the poor seniors who struggled with their luggage, I was angry to see the way the seniors were being treated, and felt helpless as I had my arms were full.in the long run it was decided by all that taking the public transit would have been way less inconvienient, less stressful, not to mention cheaper, it would have only cost less than $5.00 if we took public transit to do the exact same thing Greyhound charged me $40.00 for. We got out where the Public Transit stops and drops off their passengers. I am appauld and I will NEVER use this company again.
