btw the greyhound "single bus" route didn't exist even at the time of this video, you could BOOK a ticket for "one" bus, but you would actually get multiple tickets for transfers after showing up to the station in person, and the longest single non-transfer ride during April of 2021 (and most of the 2021 season) was the part of the Seattle to Chicago route from MT to SD where you would transfer to another bus. I took the NY to LA bus more than once, bring benadryl, advil, and don't miss any transfers if you ever do it lol

I've done that route (With two transfers; Denver CO and Kansas KS) as part of a journey starting from San Francisco, after I'd got there just a bit too late for the better option via Salt Lake UT (I was on a Discovery pass, so _turn up and go_ was OK) and didn't find it all _that_ bad. I know Greyhound isn't the same as flying, but if I'm visiting the USA from a country where we can't even drive on the correct side of the road 🇬🇧, I want to see as much of that country as I can. 😇 Also: I've travelled coast-to-coast and back again across the United States twice in my life, using only Greyhound and scAmtrak, and (scAmtrak aside) didn't have the worst experience. This is totally normal for a visitor from the UK, isn't it? 🙂

Thanks for commenting this. I did the Chicago to LA route and the only point where any ticket or sign said I was going to LA was on the website when I hit book. The rest was a patchwork (read: nightmare) of buses along the way. Literally the worst trip of my life, so many things went wrong. Absolutely do not recommend.
@dieseldragon6756
@dieseldragon6756 Ай бұрын
@@Mitchell-me7bp One thing I always recommend doing is looking carefully at the itinerary, preferably _before_ clicking „Book“. For some of us a journey of 1,500 miles on 15 buses isn't a problem at all, but for others 1,500 miles on just two buses is a pain. The website should show you the full itinerary and transfers if you click the „Expand“ button next to each journey offered, and the use of multiple operators on different routes means a journey with six transfers won't necessarily be cheaper than a bus which goes direct. 👍 Also: If you enable the „Handicapped“ option (Which implies use of a wheelchair) the booking engine will probably show you the routes with fewest transfers, though options will be very limited in this view as each bus can only accommodate 1-2 wheelchairs and on some buses those places may already be sold out. If using this as a „Fewest transfers“ filter though, *please* remember to note the itineraries that suit you, go back to the start, and ensure you book *without* making a wheelchair reservation unless you yourself need one. ♿🚌👍

Living in South America, there are a few you have missed. Bogota to Buenos Aires, runs every Monday and Wednesday depending on the company you book with it is either 104 or 144 hours, though often gets longer with international border stops. one company does a route that is 7,034km the other company does a route that is 7,178 km, both routes pass though Argentina, Chile, Peru, Ecuador. and End in Colombia, at Christmas the buses actually start outside Buenos Aires and continue from Colombia 1,000km more to the Caribbean coast, meaning for a month and a half a year the route actually increases to a little over 8,000km. Bogotá a Córdoba 6,206km Bogotá a Rosario 6,500km Cali a Buenos Aires 6,803km Cali a Rosario 6,198km Cúcuta a Buenos Aires 7,757km - takes 7 to 8 days and they warn you of this when booking, all depends on the borders so they have a time they start the route and pick ups and drop offs in every country along the way but all the times after you leave the first country are approximate and the error of margin on the time it is due at a stop slowly increases. This route runs every Monday and Friday. Leaving from either end every Monday and Friday buses passing each other usually halfway though day three, the drivers then get two or three days off at the other end and then drive the route the other direction. So usually (precovid era) there will be two or three buses on any day somewhere on the route heading north and two or three buses on the route heading south.

However the routes I mentioned 3 years ago still run and are all over 7,000km. They paused during covid but they have started again. you should be able to find them if you google in Spanish, with your location set in south america. They are not routes you normally find on English speaking sites nor on sites for tourists as they are basic. But they do still run and you can catch them from Bogota, and other cities in Colombia. And you can still catch them in or around Buenos Aires.

Many other countries have or have had something similar. I wouldn’t count them as buses although a generic term is railbus.

Nope. Withholding something until late into a video is actually about increasing retenting time wich is the percentage of the total video lenght that is watched. The algorithm used to favor longer videos more (that was when streaming videos got really popular), than it favored every video longer than ten minutes (which led to people stretching out anything to hit the 10 min mark) and lately it does no longer favor any particular lenght, but simply promotes things based on the average retention time and engagement.

In Singapore the commuter bus service (Area?) 51 is among the longest (~38km 1-way, from a suburb on 1 side of the city to another on the other side) with the most no. of stops too (94 1-way IIRC; more than our other bus services of similar route lengths but which travel partially on expressways (30, 858)), with 1-way travel reportedly taking up to 3.5h 1-way during peak hours - which'd make it slower than the world's fastest marathoners

When Wendover posted a video explaining why the new Chinese high-speed rail network was so good, I commented (based on something Sam actually said in the video) "answer: because they're bad at planes." This video can be summed up similarly: "Why are Australia, South America and North America so good at buses? Because they're bad at trains."

Weird coincidence as I just happened on a channel a month ago looking for videos on bus travel and there is a documentary on that very S. American route "From Rio to Lima - Transoceânica, the world's longest bus journey (1/5) | DW Documentary" Very well done, and enjoyable to listen to! Also, HAI, look into what are some of the most luxurious bus services you can take. Amazing how some are comparable to small aircrafts inside!

I highly highly recommend Deutsche Welle's 5 part documentary on the TransOceania bus route here on youtube if you don't have anything else to do. By the end of it I felt that all the passengers who got off at Lima were my lifelong friends and I was genuinely sad that the ride ended. They got into accidents, there are some info on the areas they've passed, they even followed some random people who made the trip from Brazil to see Machu Picchu in Peru! Also by the end of the ride the bus is half full of garbage and the spicy smell of passengers who haven't taken a bath in days, also the bus is air conditioned.

Surprisingly, you can book a continuous 64-68 hr transcontinental bus route from NY to LA one way for about $130 if you are flexible with the date. That's less than a day of wages to take a 2.8 day journey from coast to coast. (It does cost a bit more on the way back, though. About double.)

Europe does have long bus routes. I took the Eurolines bus two times from Rotterdam to London Victoria Bus Station and it took 17 hours. It only stopped on at some cities inbetween where additional passengers boarded and others deboarded the bus and during the travel through the Channel Tunnel. The last time I went to London I took the train (Eurostar) which only took a few hours and wasn't much more expensive than the bus.
