I don't expect much, but sometimes it just becomes too much. There were 3 busses scheduled to depart within 30 minutes. With only two lines, we did not know where to stand. When they realised that the first two buses are going to depart late they tried to bring a 3rd scale on-line to weigh luggage. Eventually the third bus departed 10 minutes late. Although it was clearly stated that my luggage allowance was 20Kg, I was charged R17,50 because I exceeded their 15Kg weight limit. The bus is also busy falling apart, with broken chairs, torn cloth and not very clean.
This bus was great, it was on time and super warm and the driver was so helpful
I enjoyed their service . They care for people’s safety

Well. It was good trip from the bus driver's perspective until one of the passengers decided to sneak out a couple of uncleansed toads in a very compact bus...The smell could reach the heavens. It could bring Jesus earlier from the dead. I'd say two days instead of three. Alhamdulillah we arrived safe.
