Intercape Sleepliner Kimberley Cape Town recent customer reviews
It was not a Sleepliner but a Mainliner. The driver was rude about the fact that I had mistakenly attached the luggage sticker to the boarding pass. Fortunately the staff at the Tourism Centre came to our aid. Later it became an issue as the driver did not want to release my second bag upon arrival at my destination. He eventually did.

The driver was very controlling and treated people like goods. Even when the rules were stated the staff on the bus were fraternizing with the passengers and making noise.

The bus was almost two hours late. We were waiting from 00h10 am until 02h00 am. Which is unprofessional and unacceptable.

Greyhound Kimberley Cape Town recent customer reviews
Firstly I would like to thank the steward, Morris. Our daughter was travelling on her own without a cell phone. He was very helpful and gave his cell number in order for us to have contact. We could call him anytime during the trip to follow up if she was still ok. He would also keep us posted on where they are driving and about the little delay they had along the road. Thank u Morris
