GotoBus is a ticket search engine specializing in bus travel. It is owned and operated by IvyMedia Corporation, a privately held company. GotoBus.com sells line run intercity bus tickets, multi-day bus tours, guided city tours and sightseeing activities throughout the United States and Canada. GotoBus sells bus tickets for traditional bus companies, regional independent carriers and Chinatown bus lines. In addition, the website sells vacation packages in Europe and Asia.[1]
The company started selling bus tickets in 2002 from the website IvyMedia.com. They switched to the GotoBus.com domain at the end of 2005 in order to better represent the nature of the business. In March 2011, GotoBus.com split tour services from destination services by creating TakeTours.com.
