I really like the rides I went on Amtrak through the Columbia Gorge from Pendleton to Portland. Comfy and fun to walk around. I was in my mid to late 20s then. I road a Greyhound a few times from Roseburg Oregon to places where my big brother lived like K-Falls, and to my sisters in Medford. I was little and enjoyed that a lot. I've flown a few times, the longest and most boring and tiring was from Portland to Hawaii by way of Seattle. I guess my trip about 2 years ago from our tiny airport to Oakland, then to Phoenix, and back in 2 weeks was the worst as I had a 5 hour layover. Oh man I nearly forgot, that was in 202o when our election was stolen, horrible time all around. I as staying with old friends that turned out to be democrats, nevermind the rest, LOL!! Well, my only salvation was the walks I took in the evening around the really nice Modular Home park, and there were tons of people for Trump, I mean tons!! My "friends" were invited to those parties but wouldn't go of course
Jake and I went on a bus tour to Cherokee, N.Carolina about 35 years ago. It was a gambling casino, Bibgo. Jake won a couple hundred, I won nothing.
Only bus I've riden on in last 58 years was a charter to a cassino to play Bingo. I t was fun. But I agree with you Von about buses in general.
I will say that buses are (or can be) far more comfortable today than the Greyhound buses I remember from the 1960s and 1970s. When we travel by train to Washington, DC, or Virginia, we drive as far as South Portland, Maine. From there, we can sometimes catch a train, but sometimes we'll go by bus as far as Boston, where we catch the train. Those buses are reasonably comfortable.
Long ago I went on a church trip flying to San Francisco, California followed and a bus trip from there to Los Angeles. The bus ride was the least enjoyable but I got to see Napa Valley and Yosemite and more. The last part was another bus ride to the Grand Canyon. It took so long that we got there at sunset and drove back the next day without seeing much.
We always found the bus tours comfortable. There is even a restroom on board but you are encouraged to wait till schedualed stops which are generally adequate.
