Greyhound? Heyy
ok so ill give you the context why Im choosing greyhound. I need to go from Toronto to Kelowna in British Columbia. This summer, 17 and instant messaging on a budget, a plan will cost 750 per 1100 and the 250 train greyhounds. It is my only choice. The bus ride is 2 nights and I was wondering how he is strong, as I will be flying in my sleep or pick pocketed? What is the best place to sit? and baggage, it will certainly arrive in Kelowna will not be stolen along the way, if I put "under the bus"?
it is as bad as I perseive be?
Thank you
I traveled by bus and has never had a problem with theft. Of course, you want to be smart about things. Here are some suggestions:
Keep your valuables locked in your suitcase.
Do not use a flashy new bag screams "money!" I've never had a bag stolen during the bus trip, and have always put them under the bus.
If you change buses, you change your luggage. Do not forget it or leave it unattended anywhere.
Sit near the front of the bus, if you're concerned, if you are in the driver's view.
Keep your wallet on your body - in a pocket very well. Make sure you sleep with this bag almost under you or at least under a blanket, it is tempting, therefore inaccessible and unattended.
Most people on the bus are quite honest. The chances that you'll run into one of those 5% who are not are quite small. Do not worry, but do not be stupid about it, either. Bus travel can be tedious, but is also very good.
Bring a padlock for your bag and wear a Clik. You can find them on Amazon.com. Enjoy!
