Just got back from Philly last night using Megabus. We arrived at Philly like 1.5 hours late and arrived at Toronto like 1 hour late. I don't know if they take into account the border wait time in their schedule?
Besides being late, everything was okay with Megabus. Wifi didn't work in the Canada side, but when we got to US, it did, but only in the more populated areas of the trip. Bus was nowhere near full. Most people use the bus for the Buffalo airport.
Philly is a great walking city. You can pretty much walk all of downtown from north to south or east to west in less than an hour. Everything is close together. We only used a cab to get to our hotel at night when we arrived at 30th stn and that was less than $7 usd, and to go to south side to get a philly cheesesteak from 30th stn and that was like $14 usd.
We went to Atlantic City for $2 each roundtrip which was totally worth it because they give you $20 slotplay. I won it all back so the trip was basically free. We had a bunch of Atlantic City reservation codes but the bus was late for a few so we didn't want to wait for another $20 slotplay.
Good trip if you don't mind the long bus ride and its probably better to depart at night if you don't want to be late.
