We started traveling to Goa with lots of dreams from Bangalore. We booked Volvo Semi-Sleeper on 19th may 2011. We were asked to be in our stop by 9.30 pm in navrang circle, bus came only at 10.55pm and didnt stop in navrang circle, we ran nearly 1.5kms to catch the bus........ :(
Finally we were in and started to sleep, bus didnt even move for 2 hrs, there was a leakage in diesel tank and they started to check it.... 2 hrs delay.... then bus started... our 1 day plan in goa is all over now.
Return( 24th may 2011): we were happy that we booked sleeper now and happily we can sleep, bus started.. we all sat in a berth to play cards. as the bus started moving, we cant even sit, bus was vigorously shaking us from left to right, right to left....... we all felt like vomiting and ran to our respective berths to sleep. the driver didnt even mind the speed breakers. damn it.
I never knew that we cant sleep in sleeper buses... he stopped every 30 minutes for 5 minutes but didnt allow us to get down... we complained to driver that we cant tolerate his driving and he advised us to go by flight * . everybody around us were feeling the same. we thought he ll reach Bangalore atleast before the scheduled time. but he reached 3 hours late.
Dear friends, I advice u not to take this travels in ur life time. believe me.
