- psaini1 contributionFantastic Minibus Service and Amazing Staff!Let me start by saying that booking the minibus was absolutely the best decision we made for our group trip of 12 people to Italy! Right from the first time we contacted Directbus to the last day of our trip, we had no issues at all -- clear communication, very fair and honest pricing, a spacious, comfortable, clean and safe minibus with a driver (Peter) that was a pleasure to travel with, and helped us navigate some of the most difficult roads in Europe. Every stage of our trip planning was discussed with Directbus/Fero and we received great feedback and advice to help plan some of our stays and to minimize cost where possible. Travelling overseas and finding a service you can trust to safely drive your family and friends is a challenging task, but Fero and his team made this the most pleasant and stress free experience. I would HIGHLY recommend this for anyone that is interested in doing a group self-planned trip.Thank you for your kind review :)Written 8 January 2023This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited July 2022Written 29 August 2022
- NadineDincMarrakech, Morocco3 contributionsWonderful service and professionalism!We hired a minibus for a group of 12 during August to take us through Croatia and Bosnia. From the start, Fero at the head office was fantastic. Though he said they could definitely do the tour for us, he commented that it might be better to book with a company based in Croatia because it could be cheaper - but they were still there if we wanted to use them. I did actually look around for tour companies in Croatia - I found them to be basically the same price but with super slow response times and poor customer service. Despite finding a cheaper option, I went back to Fero to book with Directbus because they were so professional and accommodating. Through the next few weeks we had contact to discuss the itinerary - all of which was met with "of course" and "no problem". Directbus issued professional invoices and were super responsive. When it came time for our actual trip, Michal (our driver for the week) was incredible. Amazing driver, very fun and smiley, good English and always on time. If we needed to do something not on the itinerary i.e. food shopping etc. he was always there in a flash. Michal definitely became a friend by the end of the week. The bus itself was super comfortable and spacious too! All in all, we would 100% recommend Directbus, and I will definitely be booking with them again in the future. Thank you so much guys!Nadine, thank you for having us :)Written 8 January 2023This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited August 2022Written 15 September 2022
- NaffiSingapore, Singapore78 contributionsExcellent stress-free service for touring Italy in comfort and style.Our group of 10 friends travelled throughout Northern Italy in September & October this year for total of 12 days. We used the Bus Direct service throughout the holiday and found the service excellent. The driver assigned to us, Michal, was punctual, polite and highly obliging. The 15-seater bus was in perfect condition and our daily trips were most comfortable. The bus was spacious and had ample space for our Lugguage, which was not inconsiderable - total of some 15 pieces! We highly recommend this service to anyone wanting a care-free holiday without the stress of driving.Thank you Naffi for your kind review :)Written 8 January 2023This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited October 2022Travelled with friendsWritten 17 October 2022

We have worked with several travel agencies before and we can only say that Directbus was really one of the best! We traveled with Directbus for a wedding and a 10 day family trip through Austria, Germany (Bavaria region), Northern Italy, Slovenia, Hungary and the Czech Republic. Fero, the manager, is very communicative and accommodating throughout the planning process. He suggested better routes, explained in detail the fees and driving regulations in the EU and finally helped us plan the itinerary. Fero is very transparent about the price and what comes with it, so we were in good hands with him! As for the trip itself, the 16-seat minivan was wonderful! It's fairly new, clean and comfortable. It has several charging stations, which makes it suitable for long trips. Our driver - Vlado - is also an excellent driver! Very punctual, responsible and also funny! In the end, everyone was happy with the trip and had a great time together. We could not have asked for a better travel experience! Without a doubt, my family and I recommend DirectBus to anyone looking to travel throughout Europe! Excellent service, friendly and reliable staff and a reasonable price! Thank you so much, Fero & Vlado! We hope to work together again in the future!

First at all, I'd like to thank for the services from Fero and Vlad. They helped a lot before and in the entire trip.
I had a family trip in Europe in early July, we landed at Frankfurt airport, go all way down along the border of Germany and France, get into Switzland, stay in Switzland for a couple days, then go to north Italy, go through Toscana and depart from Rome airport. It was a long joury, we traveled for longer than 1500km, all with Direct Bus!
I started planning the trip late last year (2022). As we are a group with 13 people, I considered to drive 3 vans in the beginning. However, it's not easy as some of my family never drive in Europe. Also, I planned to take the GoldenPass Express in between Luzern and Interlaken. Driving by ourselves makes this much more difficult and time consuming. I realized it could be easier if we have a tour coach with driver, then I started looking for it. I asked for several quotes from different service providers, then I chose Direct Bus. There're some reasons:
1. I always get a quick response from Fero. It's very important especially when I am planning, a quick response helps me finalizing the plan quickly.
2. I was imformed for all the things I should pay attention on. This is also important as traveling on the road is not always the same in different countries in Europe. For ex., Italy goverment charge addtional fees for entering some cities.
3. Direct Bus arrange the accomendations and meals for the driver, I don't need to spend time on this.
4. Reasonable price! And no hidden cost!
When we arrived Frankfurt airport, we had our driver Vlad there. He is easy to communicate, always on time and gave a lot of useful suggestions, he also told us a lot of tips for saving cost and time.
I would be more than happy to recommend their services, will definitely choose them again if I need such services in the future.

We were a group of of 6 adult couples travelled across cities and towns of Czech, Austria and Italy for 6 days using Directbus.
I arranged our tour with Fero Liptak and our driver was Michal Horvath.
Both Fero and Horvath were very pleasant to deal with, very knowledgeable, flexible and professional. The bus itself was quite new, always kept clean throughout the journey and Michal was an excellent and safe driver who was always on time.
I have no hesitation whatsoever in providing a 5-star rating to Busdirect and would like to thank Fero and Michal for their quality service delivery that enabled us to have a wonderful holiday!

Direct bus was extremely easy to work with and very professional. Fero always responded promptly, was customer oriented, very detail oriented, and was reasonable on negotiating our needs and wants. The bus itself was excellent: nice quality, well maintained, and comfortable. We all thoroughly enjoyed our driver, Caba, who was always on time, a careful driver, extremely polite, and fun to be with. He was also very helpful with local issues (ie: you will need a reservation if you want to bring your 14 people into a restaurant!). I will use this company again in every situation I can. Highly recommended!
PS: the price they quoted me was significantly less than their competition, who were arrogant and didn’t respond in a timely manner.

We are very pleased with the serviced provided by Directbus. Our group of 12 people were travelling from Germany, Swiss and Italian region for about 10 days. Our driver Peter is excellent and very good at what he does. After first contact with Fero by email, he quickly put together our transport while taking into account details like the number of luggages etc. Fero is also extremely responsive and helpful. Our driver Peter speaks english and is very polite with us.Also he is always punctual. He took care of all of us very well and for that we are thankful. There is no doubt we will still seek Directbus service for our next trip.

We were 12 pax belong to 3 families, and 6 among us were children, needless to say noisy. Transport for our 9 days austria trip was managed by Direct bus, in a well organized and professional manner, at the same time reasonably adaptive to our last moments changes in the plan. Our driver Brano was quite friendly and helpful, despite tiring long schedules. We recommend Direct Bus in your next journey through the region.
