Aris Tur Istanbul Europe Bucharest recent customer reviews
It was not a busy day at the borders, we had just 2-3 buses in front of us, and no traffic on the way, and yet the arrival time is 5am instead of midnight. 5 hours later than the original time it’s not acceptable..

The ArisTur bus left early so was forced to take a different bus. Very unpleasant experience, would not recommend travelling in this manner, at this price, for anyone with an alternative.
