Iryna P.Lviv – TrierG
This was my first trip with this company. The drivers were very pleasant and funny. They served champagne and tea. I left some of my things on the bus, but they sent them to me by Nova Poshta. I was really happy about that! Many thanks for the positive emotions and professional service!
