Megabus is a wonderful bus service that offers a great alternative to the Chinatown buses in Philadelphia. I have never used Chinatown buses, but from what I hear Megabus is cleaner and not smelly, has air conditioning and WiFi - essential for any traveler.
At the moment the company services 13 states, Washington D.C. and Canada. A great new improvement is the addition of 10 more destinations from Philadelphia. So after you've walked your way around the historic City of Brotherly Love you can hop on a bus to A.C. (Atlantic City), Boston, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Toronto, Buffalo, State College, Washington D.C., Syracuse and Harrisburg.
While it is a requirement to order your tickets online, prices can range from $1 - $20.
Just finished a trip from Pittsburgh to Philly and back for $2.50...Can't beat that! Overall, a comfortable and smooth ride. Truth be told for that price I expected a much lower class of passengers. I was never terribly impressed with Greyhound's clientele. I guess they haven't caught on to Megabus yet...Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteMEgaBus def caters to college students. You can def find good prices for diff't destinations...it's always good to order in advance too.
