If I could leave negative stars I would! I was really looking forward to making this SENIOR trip to universal with my friends and having one more good time all together before we graduate. Unfortunately, this was not the case! Bus was 3-4 hours late, not well kept at all ( not the bus we paid for ), did not have AC nor charging ports, did NOT PRACTICE safe practices AT ALL as they tried to put 104 kids all on one bus that should only seat about 50 people. Also, we had a blow out on the way down to Orlando and the bus was not properly equipped with a working spare tire to get us back on the road. We spent more time arguing back and forth with this company and having issues w our bus than we did at Universal. So sad!!!
This was a terrible experience, the bus was three hours late to pick us students up. After three hours into the drive a tired blew and we tried to fix it. The spare blew as well, the spare of the spare was ROTTEN! That was not great. We, students, were stuck at a gas station for three hours. That is a ridiculous amount of time to be at a gas station. Now at this point we’re were around 7 o’clock, and we were still an hour and thirty minutes away from our destination. Finally, at 9:30 pm we got to Orlando. Well when getting back on the bus, one of the busses were an hour and thirty minutes late to pick us up. Not to mention this is 3:30 AM in the morning, and we were all tired. Once getting on the road, all students fell asleep. One of the bus drivers started to fall asleep while on the road with only have two hours of sleep in a hotel. Which was a very risky and illegal move might I add on the drivers and company’s part. All together what was supposed to be an amazing trip, turned out to be terrible and dreadful. Do not hire this company!!!
The bus was 2 hours late picking us up in the morning. We did receive a flat and while this could happen to anyone and there is no one to blame, the bus was unprepared with their spare as it was dry rotted and withered away. The owner lied to us and suggested dangerous, illegal actions for our students to take to benefit themselves. They’re were once again an hour and a half late to pick us up from our final destination. It was all around an awful trip and one star is too generous
Used this company several times. Gave them a second chance after the driver was all over the road nearly hitting oncoming vehicles and scared our group. The bus actually would not start when we went to leave and then broke down once we were on the road. They actually sent the same fella back to us after I specifically told them I never wanted him as a driver again. The guy refused to drive up a hill because the bus might slide down it 🤦♀️the roadway was dry. Same driver also drove a car off the road in pigeon forge and patrons were screaming and was constantly on his cell phone. They did offer a discount for our next event when I contacted them but I think its safer to find another company. The bathroom was also always stinky. So bad people sat several rows ahead.
This was the worst experience I’ve ever had! The buses arrived almost 3 hrs late....The buses half worked, we were stranded for 3hrs at a sketchy gas station because the tire busted and guess what.... the only spare tire for both buses dry rotted and then the company was requesting for us to pack 104 kids on one bus to continue our drive.....my parents called to try and figure out the mess and they were meeted with nasty additudes...we arrived 5 hrs late to Universal Studios, we had to wait almost an hour for our bus to pick us up from the park at 2:30 in the morning......the second bus we got had smaller seats and basically no A.C.. the drivers were double booked for the weekend and did not receive the proper resting hours so we had to pull over at a random rest stop and and allow the drivers to rest for about an hour.....our 5hr ride home took almost 7 whole hours......with a name like tystanic I should’ve not been surprised by the outcome of the trip....have you ever heard of titanic....yeah so did jack and rose, look what happen to them...only one survived....😉🚢🚐
My experience with this company was horrible. From showing up 3 hours past our start time, lack of communication with our group, providing a lower quality bus than was paid and contracted, failing to provide proper supplies for a spare tire, and lying continuously to the coordinator of our trip, this company ruined the trip we were on. Avoid using this company at all cost!
This company is awful. We ordered 2 charter buses at 6am and then they call in 2 days before to tell us they cannot get us till 8:30am. Then the day comes and they do not show up until 12pm. Then a tire pops on one of our two buses and we are delayed till 8:30pm. We arrive to our event at 9:30pm. LAST they pick us up an hour late to go home.
This bus company is absolutely horrible. Was supposed to pick my group up at 8:30 AM and ended up picking us up at 10:40. After it arrived, it took an hour for us to start leaving. The other bus that was with us showed up 20 minutes after the first bus, and the AC didn’t even work. I am absolutely disgusted with this company and their performance.
I am very disappointed in the service provided by your company for our Seniors this past Saturday. This was a once in a lifetime experience that was ruined. They can never get back their last high school trip. I don’t think VHS or the Houston County School System should ever use your company again. You owe us all a refund. Shame on you for overbooking and ruining this trip for these students.
I must say that I have been completely dissatisfied with this company. The buses showed up very late. Plus the tire popped which is unavoidable but the fact that the spare was rotten shapes how incompetent this management is. I would never recommend such a deplorable company. One star is honestly too generous for such an awful company.
Do you enjoy getting places in time? How about traveling with luxurious seating arrangements accompanied by numerous charging ports and ice cold air conditioning? Well I’ll tell you what, this ain’t the company for you!This is the North Korea of the charter bus business, the 2016-17 Browns if you will...So if you love Totalitarianism and 0-16 seasons, this is your bus company... BUT IF YOU LIKE ANYTHING ELSE... You’d be better off zip tying your hands and feet together, riding a unicycle with a flat tire backwards with a deployed emergency parachute to your destination... I also heard they hate small dogs, creamy peanut butter, and pink starbursts.So in short, if you have any respect for yourself, or the art of charter bussing, please take your business elsewhere... and FMOT: @the_devynpyle
So disappointed with this company,being that this was my only senior trip. I left subway just to go right back to subway at loves truck stop, made friends with a woker named Alyssa for the 3 hours we were stuck there. Instead of being in universal where I should’ve been.👎🏾
Tystanic??? MORE LIKE TITANIC! Worst trip ever! This bus company is dishonest, inefficient and we were left waiting for hours! I don’t recommend this company to anyone if you want to be on time. If you want to be a respected costumer, don’t choose this company.
They were not on time (4 hours late to be exact) and the owner had lied about every little thing. I didnt even go on the class trip but hearing my peers talk about how bad it was i would not even give this company one star..
We used this bus line to travel to Washington, DC and it was a horrible experience. We were stranded on the side of the road for most of the trip and the bus lost cabin pressure several times. The owner shown no concern for safety or our trip.
A trip to BainbridgeThey were late picking us up. Then they got lost along the way and leaving one of the drivers revealed that he was driving with 3 hrs of sleepSmitty is litty
This was the worst experience i’ve ever had they were 2 and a half hours late and then on the way they had a tire pop and after all that the spare tire on the bus was rubish. This was the worst experience ever.
Is there a negative option. 4 hours late, blown out tire, dry rotted spare, 3 hours at a gas station, and still somehow late to pick up when it was all over and that’s just the beginning
I have received the best service and respect from Mrs. Tonya and Mr Snider. They are upstanding in customer service. When I called them, they answered. Thank you!
It sucked end of story. Your left people at a gas station and then not send a anther bus. Then the ac on the bus did not work yall just suck.
I didn’t attend the GradBash field trip, but from what I heard this company is a pos.
Ive ridden with this company multiple times they have been consistently late and had rude drivers.
Would’ve been faster and safer to just walk.
One star gives this company too much credit.
This company is trash.
These guys rock

2018-04-30This past weekend was our schools senior trip to Orlando. We were originally supposed to leave school at 7:00am. Two days before the trip, the company called saying that they could not get to our school until 8:30am. The day of the trip arrives and all the students are there at 8:00am, waiting for the buses to show up. We did not leave the school until around noon. Not only were the buses late, one did not have any air conditioning, outlets, or wifi, which is what we paid for and what is advertised on the companys website. The lack of air conditioning made the trip to Orlando very uncomfortable due to the heat. The driver opened the roof emergency exits but it did not help at all. To add to our already horrible day, one of the tires on the bus popped so we pulled into a gas station to get it fixed. Then the spare tire was rotted and unusable. We were told that road side assistance would be there in 20 minutes with a new tire. We were at the gas station for at least 3 hours and the owner of the company lied to us countless times. We were supposed to get to our destination at 4:00pm and we did not arrive until around 9:00pm which is absolutely ridiculous. Then when we were leaving, one of the buses was an hour late picking us up. How can such a quality company be so irresponsible and unprofessional? One star is giving this company too much credit. If I could give a zero star review, I would.

2018-05-01I would give them negative stars if it were possible. We were supposed to have an awesome senior trip to Universal and leave school at 8:30 AM. We would get there at 2 to eat and be in the park at 4. Our main event started at 8 that night. Due to overbooking, we were going to leave around 10 after having been stranded at our high school for 2 hours. We pulled out 11:40. Our bus driver’s wife was on the bus meaning we could not have a chaperone on the bus. She was dropped off on the side of the road before the interstate but it was too late for our chaperone to get on. Our bus had nothing we were promised, including AC. We had to open the emergency exits on top. There were 2 sets of 4 seats that got brutal sunlight, one person getting a sunburn from the bus ride and another had issues from the wind. Plus the window seats of those got no air. People were getting sick from heat. An hour and a half from our destination our tire popped. We stopped at a truck stop for what was supposed to be an hour. After that time period, our spare turned out to be dry rotted. The other bus had no spare. We waited for roadside assistance and were supposed to be back on the road within 20 minutes. We were there for so long, we were kicked out and had to sit outside. As our parents called to figure out what was happening they were met with attitudes and different stories each time they called. The bus driver was honest while his company was full of lies.We got to our destination at 9:30 that night, 7 1/2 hits after we were supposed to be there. We got to enjoy 3 hours of the 11 hours (just park time, not lunch time) we paid for. We were supposed to leave a little after 2 that morning but thanks to overbooking again, the second bus had to leave after dropping us off. We pulled out of Universal at 3:30 that morning after the kids in the other bus had to sit outside for an hour, exhausted from the day’s travels and the few hours we had at the park.On the way home, our bus driver fell asleep at the wheel as most of us were sleeping. Our chaperone had to keep our bus driver awake as well as convince him to pull over and take a nap at a rest stop. We should have been home around 9 Sunday morning and didn’t get home until almost 11. It was the worst experience thanks to this horrific bus company.

2018-05-01Like others I think one star is pushing it for this company. The reality is that it should be negative five stars. Due to this companys unprofessionalism and lack of safety concerns my daughter and her classmates senior trip was ruined. The companys owner and employees were not honest at all. They overbooked themselves which led to the buses being more than 3 hours late in picking up the students. A complete stranger was on my daughters bus therefore the chaperone was unable to ride. This stranger was then dropped off on the side of the road. Than a tire pops, which can happen at any time, but due to being more than three hours late picking up the seniors and having a bad spare on the bus this caused more issues. One would have have thought that during safety inspections that someone would have noticed that the spare had issues. Let us not forget the lack of air conditioning on my daughters bus which caused kids to become sick. The company had to have know that the air conditioning was not working before they even pulled up to the school. Lets now add on the fact that the bus driver did not get enough sleep therefore was falling asleep on the way back. Oh, I also forgot to mention that they did not leave Orlando until 3:30 in the morning due to another overbooking issues. (Seems to be a common theme with this company besides the safety issues). I am thinking that they need a new person to handling their scheduling. Considering that double booking would be consider a human error. I trusted this company in taking care of my daughter and that was an epic mistake. Not only did my child not enjoy the senior trip that she worked hard to save for, as parents we lost sleep that night worrying about the safety of our children. Thank you so much Tystanic for your lack of professionalism and safety.

2018-04-21I have used Tystanic on three separate occasions - to NYC, Nashville and Orlando. All were an utter disappointment in some way, whether it was quality in bus transportation, quality in driver, or both.For our trip to NYC the bus broke down and our 12 hour drive up became nearly 24 hours. 2 of the 24 hours were spent getting lost driving down residential alleys in NJ while our other bus already made it in to the city. Additionally, the driver continuously put our group in danger by going the wrong way down oneway streets, he became belligerent to the students on board, and he even began falling asleep at the wheel on the way back.On the trip to Nashville, we could not have asked for a better driver. Unfortunately, the air conditioner broke on the bus in late March heat and students were subjected to hours of nauseating heat, resulting in many students becoming sick.The most recent trip to Orlando was marked by a sheer lack of professionalism by the driver. The driver was late for pick up, the air conditioning was ‘broken’ on the bus for 4 hours which meant more heat exhaustion and sickness for students (despite the driver’s protests the company later deemed this operator error, not faulty equipment), he became confrontational with both adults and students on the bus, and continuously put us in situations unbsubtable for safe travel (like eating meals and snacks while driving down the interstate). Additionally, our bus broke down on the way home and we were stranded at a rest stop for 6 hours. To make matters worse, the driver did not alert the other bus traveling with us of this matter until they were 40 minutes down the road. He waited even longer to alert the company, so they could send help. While the company as a whole was generous in offering free lunch to everyone (which we declined due to being 6 hours late), our driver remained wholly unprofessional and belligerent to all involved.While I am sure the owners of this company have the best of intentions, I cannot in good conscience recommend this service to anyone who values safety, promptness and professionalism while traveling in a group.

2018-05-01If you enjoy being constantly lied to by a business owner, no air conditioner on a bus for 13 hours (supposed to be 6), drivers that had been forced to drive for 48 hours on 5 hours of sleep, and a total of 9 1/2 hours late to your last trip ever with your friends in highschool... use this company! If you want a successful, stress free, and happy senior trip (or any trip at all), I’d suggest not using this company! I’ve had the same problems with this company in the past as well, not only on this horrendous trip.

2018-05-02This company was supposed to provide transportation for my son and his classmates for GradBash 2018. The buses were late both coming and going. One of the buses had a flat, which I know happens. However, if the spare hadn’t been rotten, this would have left the kids sitting at a gas station for hours. They were supposed to arrive at Universal at 2 pm but didn’t arrive until almost 10 pm...8 hours late! I’ve heard there was no air conditioning on one of the buses. This was horrible!!! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!

2018-05-01We used them for our one time senior trip to Universal Studios. They showed up 3 hours late, one of the bus drivers was not very experienced, and one of the buses had no ac or charging ports and was very outdated. The bus was also not prechecked because we had a flat tire and the spare was dry rotted so we had to wait at a truck stop for 3 hours for them to get us another spare tire. We arrived at Universal Studios at 9:30pm and we were supposed to get there at 4:00pm. We were only able to get 4 hours in the park while we paid for 10. When it was time to leave the park, the bus was 2 hours late to show up and the driver was not able to receive the required rest. Very poorly managed company. One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had.

2018-05-01Absolutely terrible the first mess up I was fine with ( leaving the school hours behind schedule because the buses couldn’t get there). The second mess up was illegal ( bus driver was picking us up with 2 hours of sleep). The third mess up shows the quality of the buses (a tire went flat and the spare was dry rotted and the rim was bent). Then the own was completely dishonest and tried to get the drivers to lie to us while stuck at a gas station for hours waiting for road side assistance. The owner really doesn’t care about his customers and will hopefully gets what he deserves. They need to change their slogan to “get you there eventually!”

2018-04-30I have never been more disappointed in a company. My 18 year old brother and 100 of his classmates were supposed to be picked up at 8 am and taken to Orlando and back. The transportation was hours late, then on the way a tire blew out, unfortunately the spare was dry rotted. Sound safe? I think NOT! These kids were made to sit at a gas station for 4 hours because of this company! Many kids saved money to go on this trip and it was completely ruined. If you are concerned at all about the safety of your children or family members I would discourage using this company!

2018-04-30Worst trip of my lifetime (& I experienced a 13 hour road trip with 1/2 of my family puking all the way home)..We were supposed to leave for a senior field trip at 7 am, but the company told us the day before that we woud have to be pushed back until 9 am. Everything was fine, and we waited that morning at 9 am. It wasn’t until 11:30 that a bus showed up. But it was only one of them so we had to wait for the other. 1/2 of the lucky seniors got to ride the bus with A/C, outlets, etc., while me and the other lucky passengers got to experience the literal “struggle bus”. I’m not being snooty or dramatic when I saw this bus was DUSTY, NASTY, AND OLD!! Their website brags about having awesome busses with all those cool gadgets but we had the joy of riding 5 hours in a bus with no air conditioning, broken sun shades, nasty bathroom, and I probably got rug burns from sitting in the 20 year old seats. Not to mention, we got to chill with all those dust mites and probable other bugs that were catching a ride with us. Anyways, we continue the journey despite the company begin three hours late. BUT, 2-hours out from our destination we got a flat tire. The “40-minute stop” at a shady Love’s gas station turned into another 3 hour wait for help to get us a new tire. RECAP: We were supposed to arrive at noon at Universal Studios, didn’t get there until 9:40 pm. We also paid for extra tickets to get in the park earlier, but at that time I think we were stranded at the gas station...Most of us had anxiety attacks/heat strokes on the way up there but it’s no biggie.Honestly if I could give this company any lower score I would.The driver was 10/10. So sweet & wouldn’t lie to us like his boss said he should!I will have post ty-satanic PTSD forever now, no more charter busses for me.
