Compare 2 ways to go from Bloemfontein to Johannesburg
We recommend taking the bus
Among the sustainable travel choices, the bus stands out as a good way to reach Johannesburg. The journey takes about 5 hours 50 minutes, and with fares starting at just $26, it presents an excellent value for a comfortable ride.
Passengers frequently commend the service for its comfort, friendly staff, and careful driving. Many appreciate arriving on time or even earlier than expected despite occasional delays at departure. However, some reviews mention issues with temperature control inside the bus and a lack of communication regarding schedule changes.
The only thing I didn't like was the bus delaying by an hour but I enjoyed everything else it was very comfortable

Inter cape 254 arrived on time at 11:55PM departed Bloemfontein and arrived on time at 06:00AM. It is my first that I witnessed the driver is punctual.

I had booked a bus from Bloemfontein to Johannesburg, scheduled to depart at 03:00 AM
Unfortunately, the bus only departed at 03:17 AM, and throughout the journey, there were several unnecessary stops in isolated areas, each lasting between 10 to 15 minutes. Scheduled breaks also extended far beyond the allocated time what was supposed to be a 10-minute break turned into 20 minutes or more. These delays resulted in us arriving in Johannesburg much later than anticipated.
Additionally, the temperature on the bus was extremely uncomfortable. Travelling for over six hours in such cold conditions made the journey even more distressing.
Eagle Liner receives praise for its clean buses and friendly, helpful staff. Many users appreciate the comfort of their rides, although some mention that temperature control could be improved as it can get cold during trips. However, punctuality seems to be a concern with several reports of late arrivals affecting travel plans.
It was 2 hours late, the guy called Thapelo from. Blomfontein bus station was so rude, the other driver exchange me telling me he does want me in his bus

From 6:15 we left at 7:45, dirty bus and the driver was very ignorant no enough time for bathrooms and snacks
Users have shared that their travel experience was generally comfortable, with many appreciating the adjustable seats and smooth rides. The staff received praise for being friendly and helpful, especially in keeping passengers informed during delays. However, several users noted consistent issues with buses arriving late. Despite these timing concerns, the overall comfort of the journey left a positive impression on travelers.
It was very economically costly for me,and extremely hot air-conditioning systems.
I was scheduled to be in jhb at 1pm for an appointment and I failed to arrive even within business hours.
The drivers were helpless with the air-conditioning,I can safely say,I wont be taking this bus anytime soon

The bus interior is clean, seats are comfortable. The bus was a bit late. Some passengers were occupying 2 seats while they paid for 1, making it difficult and very frustrating for incoming passengers to local a seat. Greyhound personnel did not have a good handle on the situation, causing further frustrations and delays.

I waited at the station for 4 hours. My bus was scheduled for 2:55am but we only left at 7:00am and on top of that we were switched to eagle liner which is not what we paid for. It had no bathroom and charging ports didn’t work. Horrendous service i got. Full compensation should be given.

I did not get the bus, no communication, I waited for 3hours from 00:40 - 03:40, I had to go back home. I missed work due to that.

We arrived safely without accidents. Poor Service, the bus was arrived 3hrs late, no notification, office and cell number says the number does not exist. The bus was full, my two elderly sisters did not have sitting space, we had to negotiate with passengers with children and they carried the children on their laps from Bloemfontein to Joburg. The bus was dirty and invested with roaches. The bus drivers were not easily identifiable and they did not have uniform or anyform of identity so that was unsettling as they dressed their style which did not give me comfort. We were not asked for tickets, and I think there may have been illegal passengers thus the overload. Our bags were not tagged for passenger ID, anyone could easily take the wrong bag. The driver just opend the bag storage and told people to grab their bags. The bus service is is not customer orientated, they need serious change management.

Based on 23 reviews, Citiliner was rated 3.8 stars for this trip. Citiliner ticket prices on this trip start at $74, with the trip lasting on average 330.
The Tourist Centre at Bloem is dirty, scruffy and definitely NOT Covid safe, as I explained above. There is also not nearly enough seating available inside or outside - especially if it is raining. Your buses are 5 star and this depot is 1 star!!

Firstly, the bus delayed and that was in-convincing. Secondly, it happened that one of the passengers mistakenly locked the bathroom door from the outside and everyone couldn’t use the toilet because apparently it can only be opened in the depot
