Nice drivers, all fairly friendly, but some of the buses on the more rural routes are.. how do I put it.. patchy. There are lots in completely different liveries, it does get confusing! Talking about Trustybus here as Galleon are their parent company. All round 4, if not 5 star operation, they're trying hard at presentation and the vehicles on the more high profile routes look amazing.

Returned from Italy for our skiing trip. Coach travel was not my first choice as I always fly, however as I was going with friends, this was a first for me! I must be honest, I was not looking forward to the journey which was longer then I had envisaged, the coach itself was really comfortable and clean. Dave and Paul were amazing throughout the whole journey and nothing was too much trouble. Would like to thank Galleon for getting us to Italy and back safely.

Travel with Trustybus regularly on the 384 route and, though it is usually fine and reasonably punctual, I would suggest the following areas for improvement:
Buses- quite an old fleet and can often be quite dirty on the later services.
Information- this is the one point that really annoys me. If your bus is late, there is no way of finding out where it is: no tracking or even Twitter updates (last post was 2015).
It is not really a very regular service (about every 3-4 hours) but that may be due to demand.
Overall decent, but please improve on passenger information!

We went on a day trip to France on 17 November. The coach was freezing cold, no toilet paper. We didn't get to do our shopping because of the protest. The drivers had no sympathy towards us; they were very rude. This has been the worse coach I travelled on. I would never recommend this company to my friend and family. They don't even deserve to get 1 star. Worse coach company ever.

Worst experience ever on a coach trip, I believe in friendly service once you are working around people they are the ones that come first cause without passengers there is no job and i dont think we being treated fairly on Saturday on a day trip to France, the coach was freezing cold and several occasions we asked for the heating to be on but no luck with that. Then when we get to France there was a protest and because of that they were just rushing us, we weren't allowed to eat on the coach but still they were rushing us out of the McDonalds.
Most of the charging port wasn't working so we couldn

Extremely dangerous driving and non existent customer service. Gallion Travel operate Trusty Bus. A bus driver overtook me and my friends as I was cycling, when there was a deluge of oncoming traffic and there was no room even for a fast car to make the manoeuvre due to an island in the middle of the road. As a result the bus pulled in on me as it was alongside my bike, I had to slam my breaks on as I was level with the front wheels and riding around 20-25mph. As the bus continued to pull over it ended up with it's wheels almost against the kerb where I was cycling. It was the most dangerous manoeuvre
