You’d probably spend a lot of time sleeping overnight in a bus station waiting for a bus for the next leg of your journey. Coast to coast by bus sounds miserable.
- magpi3 2y agoI did it in 2006. I stayed at hostels in different cities and it was a three week trip. It was fun
- nkrisc 2y agoI was thinking that making a trip of it and taking your time and doing it slowly would probably be the only way to make it enjoyable. As a utilitarian means of travel though, miserable.
- ta1243 2y agoCertainly does sound miserable - worse than in a seat on amtrak, let alone a roomette or bedroom. However you can take the 1310 from LA to Phoenix, then half an hour wait before the 2245 to St Louis, and a 1h25 wait at 0720 for a St Louis to New York. 66 hours with 64 hours on the actual bus, miserable for both you and your fellow passengers.
- ipdashc 2y agoThis assumes there will be no delays. In my experience, that probably won't be the case.
- PaulDavisThe1st 2y agoIn 1981, I spent two weeks on Greyhound buses, traversing the entire country. I only had 1 night off the bus, visiting a hero of mine in Albuquerque. It wasn't that miserable, but it was sort of miserable. And I was 17/18.
