Intercape Mainliner Grahamstown Durban recent customer reviews
Did not enjoy a single thing. The trip has been extremely long and delayed without any notice being given as to why.
I had a very bad experience, the bust that was set to depart at 19:50 departed at 19:20 without notifying me. I ended up missing it and that caused so much inconvenience for me.
I didn’t enjoy anything about this journey. The bus was 5 hours late. It interrupted our plans now we will get home at night. The air condition wasn’t working it was hot, the bus had cockroaches. Im never ever ever going with Intercape. And I will tell everyone about my awful experience with your bus so that they never make the mistake I made by booking your bus.
