Student Agency

Hm, hatte für meinen Mann Berlin Prag gebucht. Dann kam die sms das kein Bus gefahren ist und neben ihm noch ein gestrandeter Tscheche stehen würde. Also schnell ein Flexbusticket gekauft und den nächsten Bus genommen. Ich habe in Prag am Busbahnhof gestanden um ihm abzuholen und es ist definitv kein kanngelber Studenagencybus angekommen (auch nicht später da auch der Flexbus etwas Verspätung hatte). Die Dame im Hotel hat dann in der Agency angerufen und bekam die Auskunft der Bus sei gefahren. Kann dann nur von Bahnsteig 9 ¾ Richtung Hogwards gewesen sein und als Muggel hat man da halt Pech. Dann bin ich ja mal gespannt wie es weitergeht.
Alternativ hat dann bei der Rückfahrt alles funktioniert.

El mejor micro y servicio del universo! jejeje si, es exageración pero es que por 16 euros viajé desde Budapest a Praga en un servicio excelente.
Wifi y bebidas calientes gratuitas durante las 7 horas de viaje. El catalogo de películas y series en pantallitas individuales es superior inclusive al de Air France: p
Cada asiento cuenta con un tomacorrientes para cargar tus dispositivos.
A medida que se va acercando a uno de los destinos la asistente de viaje iba haciendo el anuncio en Inglés, Checo y Húngaro.
Excelente servicio que recomiendo inclusive mas que viajar por tren. La agencia recorre casi toda Europa.

I had a great trip from Prague to Dresden as a return trip back to Germany. Just like the same Student Agency bus that took us from Dresden to Prague, the bus was not completely full capacity. On this trip, however, there was a random check by police to verify that everyone on board had their passports (I don’t know how often this is done, but I assume that this is done to prevent unauthorized people from getting on). This check is addition to the identity check that is done before initially getting on the bus.
We made it back to Dresden without any issues or delays. I believe that the bus ride in total was $ 15 in USD. I have no problems using Student Agency for future travels within Europe.

Czech Republic & Euro tourbus travel — comfort and convenience bargain.
My wife and I purchased 2 return trip tickets with assigned seating from Prague to Česky Krumlov on Student Agency website for $ 33. The yellow, luxurious double decker sized, quiet and smooth riding tourbus with clean bathroom departed and arrived on time in three hours. Na Knižeci bus station in Prague is five minutes walk from Andel metro station which makes Student Agency busses a convenient extension to one of the best Metro and public transportation systems in Europe. The luggage was stored on lower level by the driver and Klara, the friendly and helpful local hostess provided information, local newspapers and beverages — efficiently and with a genuine smile and helpful attitude.
To grasp the amazing value of this travel service one only has to remember the hassles of typical air travel and the frequent futility and expense of trying to use public transportation elsewhere in US or Europe.

I booked a bus ride from central Prague to the Prague airport. I received a confirmation code that I paid. When we arrived at the bus, our names and reservation number were not on her list. After much arguing, we had to purchase ANOTHER ticket and were able to get on the bus so that we could make our flight. I immediately contacted their customer service and was told that my first transaction would be refunded. After a month, I had no refund and contacted them. They told me the first transaction never went through so they could not refund me. I sent them a picture of my credit card statement, which showed the money was taken out, and also my confirmation code. I argued with them for a couple weeks (because they take forever to respond to e-​mails) and finally they said I was correct and that my refund would be processed. Here we are, 2 months later, and I have no refund. I have e-​mailed them probably 10 times, and NO ONE REPLIES TO ME. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, STAFF RUDE AND UNHELPFUL. It’s cheap, and it will get you where you need to go, but I prefer not to give my money to people that flat out steal from their customers.

Took Student Agency round trip from Prague to Cesky Krumlov. The buses were clean, ran on time, and had all the advertised ammenities – drinks available, tvs, etc.
The downside, which was really surprising to me for a company dealing with travelers, is that the staff were almost uniformly incredibly rude and unhelpful. The drivers refused to answer questions, making the whole experience much more stressful and unpleasant than it needed to be. There’s no reason for it to be like this, and next time I would take an agency that is committed to providing better service.

My two siblings and I traveled from Budapest to Prague via student agency and we were very pleased. Again, the price was about a third of the comparable train tickets and the travel time was surprisingly about the same.
The experience was wonderful. The seats were comfortable for our 7 – 8 hr ride. The selection of movies was great. The stewardess was very nice and offered a free selection of hot drinks. There was a 40 min break at a gas station about 5 – 6 hours into the bus ride. As soon as we entered Czech Republic, the bus provided free wifi.
I’d recommend traveling via bus with student bus agency — don’t let the name fool you. It was professionally run :)

Student Agency is a great, affordable means of transportation if you’re in Prague and you want to see any of the nearby major cities and more. I’ve taken it to Bratislava and Berlin, and will likely take it to Krakow soon.
Prices are very reasonable when compared to train and plane. The bus ride is often as long as a train ride but at a much lower price. I’ve also noticed that it’s much cheaper to buy the ticket on the day of, but I guess then you also risk not being able to get the seat. For instance, my ticket to Berlin was about 35 euros, but when I messed up and bought a new one, I got the new ticket for 590kc which is absurdly cheap.
They have a great selection of movies on the bus of both the Czech and English variety. You’re offered free hot drinks (tea, coffee, hot chocolate) and can pay to buy other snacks and cold drinks. You get one free piece of luggage which is really nice. The bus itself is quite good. Solid seats, bathroom, air conditioning, pretty much anything you could ask for to make your experience comfortable.
tldr; great service in Prague that lets you travel across central Europe at an affordable price!

I would 100% recommend this Agency to everyone.
We travelled from Vienna-​Prague and back and first looked at trains. But for ¹⁄₃ of the price of a train (and for the same amount of travel time) you can take a Student Agency bus.
The bus was clean, with air conditioning and a drinks service (obviously you pay for the drinks). The seats were comfortable and the new buses have TVs on the back of each chair! You can choose from a good number of movies in English or Czech. The staff will come down the aisle and offer you headphones in case you have forgotten yours. The bus on the way back to Vienna was slightly older so we just had the old style big TV screens to watch communally, which wasn’t so bad — you could plug your headphones in to the panel at the side of your chair and tune in.
The Vienna-​Prague route also has a stop in Brno where you can stretch your legs, use the bathroom, grab some food etc.
Very good value for money!

For a cheap bus line with rides around Europe I was pretty impressed with Student Agency. Of course, you could possibly chock that up to the fact I had a horrible experience on Orange Ways. But I did ride Student Agency first and I liked it without considering Orange Ways.
We got on last which landed us in possibly the worst seats on the bus — right behind the driver. A bit cramped up there and honestly a little freaky — avoid at all costs! Otherwise, the bus was kept at a cozy temperature. (I was able to snuggle with my girlfriend without getting overheated and flying into a fit of hot rage.) The seats were comfortable and soft. And the bus was staffed with two male drivers and a female attendant. Basically like a flight attendant. She came around offering food and beverage for sale (sorry, nothing free!). And each seat was equipped with its own TV/​entertainment screen. We didn’t bother though as this was a night bus to Prague from Mannheim and we needed to at least attempt sleep.
