We have a trip leaving Mt St Michel on May 17th (3rd Sunday) next year. Would like to catch the bus to Rennes in the morning and would like to know if this bus could be over crowded to the point of not getting on. We would then connect to Paris by train from Rennes. Any advice or ideas would be appreciated> Thanks

Just buy the ticket in advance online @ ouisncf.com instead of showing up and you won't have a problem

Yes I have thought about renting a car, however we travel a lot by car here at home and enjoy doing things differently while on vacation in Europe. Also when I look up schedules on ouisncf.com the bus trip comes up under the train section as autocar and doesn't come up under the bus section. what is autocar? I'm guessing it means bus.

Autocar is the equivalent of the word "coach" that Americans in the USA who take Greyhound or Megabus or Amtrak etc. know when they hear it.

I rarely have seen people suffer motion sickness when taking the bus here in the USA or abroad. I have on a plane though

Thanks for your replies! I used to drive for Greyhound and I never got motion sickness while driving, however when I rode in the back I sometimes did. So I try to always try to look out the front window and if that didn't work I would just close my eyes and relax.
