    NY Penn Station stop, 07.27.2019.

    Elite Bus Review: Tripper Elite was my first Commuter Bus ride. How far Buses have evolved from Greyhound. I've been looking to join the bus ride craze from MD to NY (Manhattan) for awhile & the Tripper company did not disappoint. The Elite service is $10-$15 more than the regular bus ticket offering comfortable reclining leather chairs, complimentary WiFi & movies to download on your device. The Restroom is well kept with Hand Sanitizer, one box of tissue & no water faucet. The perfect example to why I keep a personal stash of Wipes & Disinfectant Spray on me. All employees from ticket taking, providing the 411 & the Drivers were friendly...$55 well spent. To Note: -Reservation Fee is $.50. -Once you purchase your first ticket you're automatically registered. -Buy five tickets & you earn a free ticket. -The ticket email confirmation provides all the necessary details from pick up & drop off locations with maps for visual aid. *Upon boarding you get a complimentary bottle of water. *There's plenty of luggage space underneath the bus. While in DC, Tripper has partnered with the Embassy Row Hotel (Luxury 4-Star) offering a 10% discount off the nightly rate with complimentary Breakfast. The reservation link is also in the email confirmation. One slight miscue...I left the WiFi once I was connected before downloading a movie & wasn't able to access it again. Even with switching off my Wi-Fi & "Forgetting the WiFi", still a no go. I was still able to utilize the strong connection & watch movies on my iPhone. I'm sold across the board & looking forward to becoming to regular on the Elite Buses. How fitting, Eliteness all around.

    Lots of leg room (I'm 6' 1)

    5 stars simply because I was running late to make my bus and they actually waited for a passenger that came after me! I was stressing out, fearful that my trip to NY was ruined. But they were nice. Also, the bus driver was funny when giving instructions.

    Today is first time on Tripper from Bethesda to NYC. Very professional, friendly, and enjoyable experience. Hands down the best bus trip ever taken!! Far far far better than Bolt or Mega...here's why: Run by Gunther Tours, someone at that company knows the importance of attention to detail when it comes to keeping customers happy and it seems that is their ultimate goal. Free WiFi, working outlets, free bottled water, the bus is clean and looks and smells almost new with modern technology. There are working seat belts and a holder for my coffee/tea. The location is on a safe side street across from Panera Bread and Starbucks...perfect location for early morning coffee drinkers. The moment you arrive, you are greeted by a very friendly man wearing a Tripper bus jacket. He checks your ticket, then once everyone boards, he comes on board to make announcements and wish you a pleasant trip. He checks to make sure the outlets are working properly, gives you the WiFi info and also lets you know that for safety reasons, they will switch drivers along the way. The bus arrived 10 mins before departure and we left on time. About 30 minutes into the ride, we pull into a rest stop to switch drivers. The other driver was already there, and dressed nicely. He gets out of a van marked Gunther Charters and Tours. The drivers exchange papers and the first driver says "y'all have a good ride" before getting off. That entire transaction took all of 4 minutes then we were promptly back on the road. The best part is that they offer free movies to watch on your device! Gunther runs a tight ship. Tripper is the way to go and I'm so so happy they operate a few blocks from my home. My trips to NYC will be a breeze! Thank you Gunther!!!

    Sunday, June 29, 2014. Passengers of the 5:00pm broken down Tripper Bus on the NJ Turnpike.

    My usual bus company was booked solid, so I decided to take Vamoose bus for my recent trip from NYC…read moreto MD. The $30 one-way fare was slightly more than I've paid on other bus lines, but I figured Vamoose must be offering extra perks to justify the higher cost. I arrived at the pickup location about forty minutes prior to the departure time and there were already at least twenty people ahead of me on the line. Soon after I arrived, one of the Vamoose representatives began checking names off on his list. He handed a boarding pass to each person after confirming his or her reservation. We started boarding the bus thirty minutes prior to the scheduled departure time. About ten minutes later, every seat was occupied and we were on our way--a whole twenty minutes ahead of schedule. There wasn't anything fancy about the bus - just your standard seats, zero power outlets, no seat belts or wifi. In other words, no bells and whistles! The bus ride to Bethesda was four hours long with no rest stop. Fortunately, I got off at the first stop in Bethesda, but the bus was also scheduled to make a second stop in Arlington. Vamoose Bus has an organized ticketing and boarding process, but the higher fare comes with less amenities than other bus lines. Side note: Vamoose does have a fleet of Gold buses equipped with amenities such as leather seats, a tray table, and more leg room, but at a cost of $50 for a one-way trip from NYC to MD, I'll pass.

Thank you Charles (driver), Jacob (owner) and David (dispatch/coordinator). From the initial on-line contact to get a price quote there was a response from Jacob by email within thirty minutes requesting more detail about pick up/drop off locations, time and number of passengers. The communication was excellent (from beginning to end) and the responsiveness was very impressive. Our superb driver Charles arrived about an hour early (which was great as many of the 14 adults using the Sprinter Van transportation had already arrived). The driver was caring, responsive, generous and had the Sprinter Van A/C cranked up and the van spotless inside and out. The driver's kindness and driving skills was remarkable in all of the passenger's opinion. He went out of his way to accommodate us. Our HS children used another transportation service (booked prior to the adults deciding to use transportation as well). There service was horrible. He was thirty minutes late for pick up, the Party Bus had no air conditioning (it was 90 some degrees for the one hour ride), had no working speakers, driver smelled of marijuana, drove erratically and did little to in regards to service. When we heard about this we terminated their service after the 1 hour of the 6 hours booked for the evening. Our driver Charles of Shalom Transportation, upon our request, took immediate action by contacting Jacob who was polite and generous and provided us with an impromptu remedy by providing our children with alternative transportation on the spot and the report from our HS children was that the service and transportation vehicle was excellent. David, Shalom's dispatcher, immediately stepped in to action (thank you) and provided immediate communication by text and our adjusted bill by email. We were pleased with Shalom Transportation LLC's communication, service and price and would use them again. Thank you Shalom Transportation LLC (specifically Charles, Jacob and Dave). -the Glasser Family.

    I recently booked with Culdesac Chauffeur and was so pleased with my experience…read more I had not seen my sister since pre-pandemic. Once everyone in my family was fully vaccinated, we began to plan the long awaited reunion. Since I wasn't entirely sure of her schedule, I wasn't able to book until the day before we needed the driver so I was very happy that Culdesac was able to accommodate. From my initial phone inquiry until our drop off, every interaction with the business was professional. During my first phone call, I was able to book a driver for 5 hours to take us to a winery in Virginia. The winery is located over an hour away, so it was nice to be able to relax and not worry about driving. Everything was pretty seamless. Our driver (Rachid) was so professional and even arrived a few minutes early. He was a safe driver, kind and accommodating despite the non-stop storytelling and giggling between me, my sister and a childhood friend throughout the entire ride. Their pricing was upfront and pretty in line with quotes that I received from other businesses as well (and pricing was pretty transparent which I appreciate!) Thank you Culdesac for helping us make a very special weekend, safe and stress free.

    A group of us was visiting Washington, DC for a hockey road trip…read more Two months prior to my trip, I emailed Culdesac, along with 2 other competitors for a price quote. Culdesac not only contacted me the same day, but they were the only ones who provided me with any form of communication, and I've yet to hear back from the other 2 companies. That alone catapulted Culdesac to 5 star status in my book! I had 11 people in my group and was suggested a 14 passenger Mercedes Sprint Van, picking up from IAD to downtown Washington for $275, which included tax and gratuity. I believe I spoke to Sammy, who was very helpful and friendly. Fast forward to February... The day before our trip, Sammy called me to reconfirm, and sent me our driver's name and number. A hiccup happened to our trip, and I sent Derek a text to come to the airport earlier than we agreed upon. Culdesac called to verify we needed an earlier pickup, Derek kept me in the loop of his transit time, and he came to the spot we told him we were at. Super professional! We decided to use Culdesac to take us back to the airport. Again the day before, I got a call and email reconfirming my pickup at 1:30 pm. We were told that Derek was going to take us back, but unfortunately a hiccup occured where his appointment was going to run over, so Derek texted me that someone else will pick us up, and not to worry. A few minutes after the text, Culdesac called me to say Derek was being replaced by Sam, and they texted me his number. Sam arrived at 1:15 in a 20 passenger van, just as nice as the Mercedes Sprinter, and even newer! It was also handicapped accessible, which was a good thing to remember if someone was disabled. He was just as courteous and got us to the airport safely and quickly. I honestly believe this company deserves 5 stars. They were professional, easy to get a hold of via email and phone, and communicated with me from start to finish. They charged my card after the service was completed, and the tip and tax was included in the fee. I would gladly use them again if I am back in the DC area.
