Greyhound Pretoria Bloemfontein recent customer reviews
Greyhound bus services are terrible! There’s was almost a head on collision because of the bus drivers wreckless driving. Customer services was extremely rude and didn’t care that our lives were in danger. I will never use Greyhound again
I was very disappointed with the service of the greyhound staff and the bus was ridiculously late
I love how comfortable the bus is. But the administration and overall operations of the bus is very disappointing. Having to change buses from park station, to the bus having technical issues in North West, causing delays and an inconvenience.

Intercity Xpress Pretoria Bloemfontein recent customer reviews
Trip was nice... the only issue was interchange of buses in Johannesburg as i was traveling from pretoria to Bloemfontein... It was a huge chaos as my online ticket had no bus number allocation. No one knew my bus though i found it later after stressing searching for a while. It will be better if online tickets have bus numbers too
I didn’t enjoy the journey at all. I was apparently supposed to switch buses in Park Station but no one mentioned it to me. This resulted in me travelling to Umtata to catch another bus to Bloemfontein. I am profusely disappointed in your service and I wish no one experiences this. I am a student , every hour makes a difference. I was on the road for an extra 24hours.
It was the worst experience ever, the bus drivers are unprofessional. We had to keep changing buses causing a 2 hour delay on our trip. The bus was stuck due to reasons that weren’t even explained to us. We had to wait on the highway for another bus
