Compared to some of the journeys, which Greyhound operates, the journey from Memphis to Houston is not the longest, or even most expensive. Some coast to coast routes will take up to 72 hours and can be very grueling, despite the modern and comfortable buses.
The journey takes around 15 hours in total but it is not possible to get a direct service, you will need to change at Dallas Texas, this all adds time to the journey.
In terms of fares you can save money by booking in advance. A web only internet advance fare comes in at $111 for a one-way journey.
A standard fare without pre-booking is $116, but this does not entitle you to a refund if you don't travel or any flexibility, should you want to change your travel dates or times.
A fully refundable ticket can be purchased for $139, this allows you more flexibility for your journey.
The Greyhound bus network is still one of the most cost effective ways of travelling from A to B around the United States. For years the network of routes that criss-crosses around the country has been seen as a viable alternative to the train or for those without their own transport.
In recent years the Greyhound Company has gone about updating its fleet and trying to rejuvenate its service for the 21st century and this has gone some way to encourage more customers to use the network and indeed, keep prices down.
