Greyhound Chicago Wichita recent customer reviews
I wasn't told this wasn't going to be a direct trip. I booked a trip from Chicago to Wichita and had to stop twice, once in St Louis, once in Kansas City. I had to change the bus each time. Stayed 6 hours in a bus stop overnight in St Louis because there was no driver for the connecting bus. Very cold in the bus, about 64 degrees, people complained, driver didn't care. Almost two days to cover a trip that shouldn't take longer than 11 hours. Bad experience.
