We had a great journey on the bus from Dresden to Leipzig. We were hardly late on departure, the few minutes were insignificant. The arrival was also on time, after a smooth journey. The bus driver did a good job and kept the bus at a pleasant temperature. Not too cold this time, but very pleasant. The bus was clean and tidy and the bathroom had also been cleaned. Everything was in order.
