Megabus US Wausau Madison recent customer reviews
Driver did not approach the designated loading area.I was there 20 min early and waited in the cold. The bus went to a nearby parking area.At the stated boarding time, I expected the bus to go to the bus stop. Instead, he simply drove away. I did not get the ride I needed and will contest the payment.
