nothing was enjoyable : the departure time was late by 2 hours; the arrival time was late by 5 hours; the communication from the drivers was unclear at stops as to whether we may have a break or not, of which is an inconvenience for any traveling human being who needs to use the restroom since their coaches don't have one on board; the drivers play whatever music of their liking at any given time even when most passengers are asleep. The trip was horrendous to say the least.
