The original bus was full but Rider express handled it really well compared to the other bus company. Rider express prepared another bus for the passengers and checked in everyone thoroughly. Though the other bus was old and didn’t have outlets and cup holders, i am very impressed by Rider express and how they considered the passengers well. Absolutely love this company. Highly recommended

The trip from Calgary to Vancouver was pleasant enough considering it was a round 14 hrs to the Vancouver airport. Nice scenery along the way. The only grip I have is maybe the company needs to have in there website that passengers should all have earphones/buds for there phones/laptops. Nothing worse to ruin a nice quiet trip than having someone playing video games/watching soap operas/screaming kids doing whatever. Maybe even have the driver make an announcement during the trip. Other than that the drivers were great.

I fell asleep on the bus and missed my connecting bus stop to Regina. The driver was able to call the office and get my ticket transferred to the next days bus. A new ticket was issued to me by email without any actions required by me besides alerting the driver of my mistake. I could not have felt more taken care of and understood. Thanks!

Calgary - Westbrook Mall to Golden

The bus seats were not as comfortable as they look but the bus was clean and very nice inside, worthy of extra special mention was the driver who was a little bit short in his replies but what an excellent driver very smooth comfortable ride. The number one issue I have and I don't understand why it can't be accommodated into your system in some way and that is that I have a small dog my vehicle broke down nearby golden BC but I was going to Calgary this was the reason for using the bus, I was forced to put my dog in a kennel for one day which was very expensive and very difficult to do since I didn't have a vehicle. There are certain circumstances where exceptions to rules should be made and this is certainly one of them He's a tiny little dog he would have rode all my lap the whole way in any event I hope that there are future plans to accommodate at least a small animals . I hope that you will pass my comments on to the driver I did mention it also when I got off the bus to him I did mention it also when I got off the bus to him

Salmon Arm to Chilliwack

I’m a loyal Rider Express passenger. I wish the drivers would remind people to use their seat belts on each leg of the route. I realize the following is easier to enforce - single passengers leave their belongings on both seats when arriving at the next stop; this makes it very difficult for new passengers to find an available seat.

I just want to say about the seating..if you can increase the comfortness of seats so that people travelling far like more than 10 hours in a row can enjoy their journey and take a proper nap if they want to. Rest of the journey is good.

Lake Louise to Vancouver

Firstly, a big shout out to both drivers who were excellent drivers and communicators, and both very personable 5/5 for them. The bus was clean and comfortable. I found the fare very expensive, and also disappointed that there was not a seniors discount. It certainly stretched my budget to the max. My other disappointment was not being able to book a preferred seat (window) even though booking early. It was a one-time trip for me being from Australia, and when I got on at Lake Louise all window seats were taken, and nearly all passengers had their bags on the seat next to them.

Revelstoke to Kamloops

Our son, who has Down syndrome, takes the bus from Kamloops to Revelstoke, and/or Revelstoke to Kamloops when he comes home to visit. We state on his ticket that he has Down syndrome, and prefers to sit near the front for his safety. Every time he (and sometimes his wife who uses a wheelchair) takes the bus, the bus drivers have been very accommodating with making sure that he gets a front row seat. The drivers are super nice and helpful, caring and kind. The bus is easy to track on the ticket, and are usually right on time. Today, we even got a notice on email that the bus was going to be 15 minutes late. We are so impressed with the service, the schedule (which is very convenient), and that the buses are very reliable and on time. We feel very confident in our son taking the bus and getting to his destination safely, comfortably and on time. Thank you so much for providing this essential service for our son so he can visit us independently without needing us to give him a ride. Sincerely, Wenche & Terry

Bus ride was fine Scheduling good. Drivers both very professional and proficient. Through no fault of the drivers there was a delay of several hours on the highway due to an accident, which condensed the rest of the trip and resulted in me being an hour late for a connection and needing to arrange new accommodation at extra cost.

Dear Rider-Express Team, the trip was a little bit late, but that ist totally fine. The drivers were very friendly even when the micropohne was making horrible noises. What was really anoying though, is that the Wifi was so bad that i could not check in for my flight or purchase a connecting busticket. This made my traveling after my arrival in Vancouver a lot harder than it had to be. All the best C. Franke

The trip seems quick compared to driving it oneself. The only thing you could improve is to have the seats go back a bit more & a little more leg room. Other than that I'm pleased with the service & wouldn't hesitate to take a trip again & recommend to others. Thanks 👍

Great experience as always with Rider Express. So glad they now have the shuttle from Salmon Arm to Kelowna. My Kelowna driver I think his name was Robin was excellent, friendly and very helpful!

Revelstoke to Vancouver

The bus was 40 min late and I received a useless notification at the exact time of planned departure indicating it would be 20 min late (it was actually twice as long), the previous stop was 150 km away, so surely they could have sent the notification earlier so we could have waited to arrive at the stop instead of standing outside for an hour waiting. We were nearly 2 hours late arriving at the final destination and the driver didn't apologize or explain why we're were late, or even notify passengers so they could tell their pickup people to plan to be there at 11pm instead of 9pm, yet they swapped out the driver because he was timing out, which seemed disrespectful to the passengers. When he announced our arrival at the Abbotsford airport stop, which was 1.5 hours late, he wished those getting off a nice evening, rather than acknowledging how late they were arriving or apologizing for potential missed flights. Despite being way way behind schedule, the driver continued to stop and give passengers breaks. The bus was completely full, not a single spare seat. People were very noisy having annoying conversations the entire way, I couldn't focus enough to read sure to the noise (and I'm not old!). The bathroom door didn't always close properly.

Revelstoke to Abbotsford

I was on the bus that broke down just out of Chase BC during this incident the driver Wayne was very Professional and passionate with the passengers. The bus had stalled out three times as he tried to continue the trip. Each time Wayne was trying to trouble shoot the issue The driver finally found a safe spot on the highway to let the passengers off the bus for some fresh air as the air conditioner was not working. During all the stops he was very informative and apologetic with us even though he was I’m sure under great stress himself. He finally informed us that if he continued driving the bus at a very slow pace he could get us to a truck stop where we were going to meet a rescue bus. He also said this way we’d save time if the rescue bus had to backtrack and we could relax and get coffee ect. He was even able to provide the time it would take us, 4 1/2 minutes per kilometre, (I enjoyed that moment of his calculation). My overall opinion of this trip? Wayne was very professional, kind, apologetic and understanding of his passengers. Wayne handled a stressful situation in a appreciated manner for me that was clearly not under his control Big thank you to Wayne and his support of the Ryder Express technical supporter’s he was on the Phone with. All though I was five hours late getting home I will always use Ryder Express for my monthly trips to work and home.

Although the bus had mechanical issues the driver was absolutely wonderful. Wayne should be commended on the way he handled the situation. He stayed calm and was able to get us to a safe spot to meet the other bus. I have travelled by bus many times and Wayne was by far the best driver I have ever had.
