Miranda C.
I'm a smoker and I was thankful for the stops. Comfortable chairs. Bathroom facilities and wifi. It was a good trip. But if you're coming to Calgary be prepared for the long wait in traffic at cross iron mall. Not the buses fault. Highways dept.to blame.

Bus has washroom. Comfortable seats. Has breaks. However, my bus from GP to Edmonton was delayed for 45 mins.
Cold Shot offers a generally positive travel experience with punctual service and professional, friendly drivers who are appreciated for their helpfulness. The buses are clean, providing good value for money. However, some passengers noted limited seating space and inconsistent Wi-Fi availability during journeys.

Savoie A.
We left a little later than the departure time and arrived in Edmonton past the ETA but the trip from Edmonton to Calgary was right on time. The bus drivers were also very helpful with the luggage and made sure that all passengers were in the bus before departing.
Based on 4732 reviews, the company was rated 4.5 stars on Busbud. Travellers were especially satisfied with the ticket access and the staff but often complained about the Wi-Fi. Red Arrow ticket prices on this trip start at R 2 184

Ebus Grande Prairie Calgary recent customer reviews
There was an incessant buzzing/humming noise that made it impossible to relax!
The air conditioning was good though, and the ride was otherwise comfortable
4 out of 5 stars
Samuel J.
Unfortunately, the replacement crew couldn't make it from Grande Prairie to Houston BC, so we couldn't leave for Grande Prairie, hence I have to rebook my trip, which meant to add an extra $30 dollars to the cost of my ticket, I asked the operator if I could pay the penalty fees and leave my ticket open, and even asked if I could reverse it from Calgary to Grande Prairie for a latter date instead, but the answer was a NO. We are still having issues with the other crew, which could mean another $30 dollars added to the already $180 dollars bus ticket from Grande Prairie to Calgary, amounting to $210 dollars, 11 hours bus ride ticket, which is the equivalent to a 2 hours plane ticket from Grande Prairie to Calgary .

1. The buses:
I enjoyed the bus and ride from GP to Edm. The seat leg rest makes seating very comfy.
The bus from Edm to Calgary didn't have a leg rest and that made the trip a little uncomfortable for me.
2. Stops
The stop points offer very little in variety of food choices.
Since there's enough delay
time for transfer busses, can some of that time be allotted to more stops at Whitecourt?
