I'm in Toronto and then heading to Montreal. I'm thinking of taking the midnight greyhound bus which is an 8hr ride. Anyone done this? How's the bus ride experience? i know I could take the viarail but I'm trying to save some money by not paying for 1 nights accomodation.
Thanks,
i haven't done this entire route, but i've done kingston to montreal, which is half of the overall ride (i think it should be less than 8 hours total...? not sure though)
the buses are pretty comfortable and usually not packed, especially for the midnight trip. i would recommend it.
Coach Canada also operates buses on this route. They have one that leaves from Toronto at 12:30am and arrives into Montreal at 7:05am. I've heard that they have cheaper fares however you can't book it online.
