I traveled with Neeta from Pune to Goa this Diwali.. I had booked the Volvo B9R semi sleeper bus which came from Shirdi.The departure time was 9:45 pm. the bus came at 9 45 pm. It didnt stop more than 5 minutes because private buses are not allowed to stop near the Mitramandal Chowk. So we started at 9:50 pm. after a hour or so the bus stopped at Natraj for dinner. it was a quick 30 min stop for dinner and driver change after that we left. Directly it stopped at Kankavli for tea & driver change at around 4am. And reached Panjim at 6:45 am it was overall an excellent journey.
The driver was also very good kept constant 100 Kph. No hard acceleration and braking. I would also like to mention that their buses are absolutely awesome! I know some of you had problems with their bus quality but now they have replaced 70 to 80% of their fleet with new Volvo B9R & mercedes buses! I would surely recommend you this bus service! the fare was also reasonable 900/- where Paulos were charging 1000/- for an old B7R mark III...
