Do not use this service. I was supposed to travel from Edinburgh to Aberdeen at 3:20am. I arrived 30

Do not use this service. I was supposed to travel from Edinburgh to Aberdeen at 3:20am. I arrived 30 minutes early because that was the only connection I had to reach the city centre and walk to the stop. I waited, but no bus stopped at the bus stop, so I unnecessarily booked a ticket for a service that never arrived, believing I would reach Aberdeen before 8:00.

As a result, I had to buy a much more expensive train ticket and I was also late. If you want to use a responsible and reliable company, do not use Ember. Buy a ticket for a train, FlixBus, or another similar company instead.

I am so impressed with this new bus…

I am so impressed with this new bus service. They have really thought about the timetable and how to provide more options for travellers from the Highlands to reach the airports for example. The buses are comfortable and bonus that they are electric and I love the tracking service.

Very good bus service

Very good bus service. I got on in Forfar i find it really reliable and helpful it goes through towns such as Forfar and if no one has booked at a certain place it won't go there which i find really good. Very comfortable and just the little things such as on the trays on the seats with the little groove for your phone. Also the buses are electric which makes it a lot quieter. Overall i would highly recommend Ember for anyone who is looking to travel to other cities. Thank you and long live Ember!

Excellent bus experience

We used the Ember bus for the first time to travel to and from Edinburgh airport. This month. What a fantastic service.It left on time from Inverness city centre and got us straight to the airport in under three and a half hours. Lovely friendly driver.It was brilliant to come out of the airport terminal in the early hours on our return to have a bus right outside the door. Snowy conditions on way up but again a lovely driver dealing with what must have been a difficult drive.Comfy bus with reclining seats made for a good journey.If you haven’t used them yet, I’d strongly recommend you do, first class.

Bus to the airport delayed by 1 hour

Horrible experience. Bus to the airport delayed by 1 hour! Information updated on website 5 min before the start of journey. Thank you very much, waited at the bus stop all this time. I will let you decide if this service worth choosing. Personally - never again, so that refund in credit doesn’t do anything for me.

Excellent? But the heating needs reviewing.

Excellent from Fort William to Edinburgh. Scottish winter. But going going down, more than a bit chilly. TBH, rather cold. Back up, -- fkn freezing. No heat under the seats. Seriously cold from bus frame, and windows. Driver put the heat up from above. Nice try. I think your service is good, very good, but please do something about the heating in a Scottish winter. Body-warmer and bunnet the next time.

How all bus journeys should be.

We use Megabus occasionally but tried Ember for a change. We’ll now stick with Ember. Quiet, no rattling, smooth, clean and comfortable, Ember takes bus travel to a new, higher level. My car might be left at home more often now.
