SO MANY REASONS TO RIDE THE BUS

HELP THE PLANET
This is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint. Buses, as well as trains, have the lowest CO₂ emissions of any city-to-city transportation. Busbud is committed to earth-friendly travel. The more people ride on buses, the fewer cars there will be on the road.

SEE THE SIGHTS
You can see so much more from the vantage point of a bus. Pick a window seat and watch the miles slide. That’s how you get the most out of your travels. Buy your tickets and discover beautiful destinations.

WORK ON-THE-GO
Work while you travel (if that’s your thing). Many carriers offer Wi-Fi, so you can get stuff done during your train or bus travel.

RELAX AND RIDE
Get a ticket. Sit back and let your driver handle the road. What better place than a bus to listen to music, daydream, or catch up on some sleep?

Busbud. Travel, with a smile.

Very functional app with a large array of supported bus agencies. However, it doesn't include all features of their website. Notably, it omits the ability to find train routes.

I like the app, it's easy to use and when trying to buy bus tickets in Argentina online rather than in person at the bus station has proved to be the easiest option. Not being able to pay in local currency is a real drawback however, the exchange rate offered when I have to pay in sterling is the "official rate" and not the "blue" rate so bus tickets generally end up costing more than twice the quoted price.

Hi Dan, Thank you for your review. We at Busbud are bound to apply the globally known and supported FX rate at this time. We are still discussing with our payment processors how to be able to get access to this rate as well so that we can offer it to our international customers. Thank you for reaching out!
