First of all. Ilula Bus did not inform that the times online was incorrect. Had to wait in the sun with a 3year old and 1 year old. Then the busdriver did not keep to the speed limit - he was speeding. When we got the Grahamstown, we had to navigate him to the Frontier Hotel in Bathurst Street, as he only wanted to drop us on the N2, where we should be dropped off. He said that is where he always drop the passengers off.
