With this trip, I was completetly dissastisfied. Firstly the bus was late, and it was a stabus, those small buses that are designed for small distance travell , they are selfish to make people travel for such a long distance. Because of that, I don't think I'll ever use eagle liner.

Hope Diamond Transport Queenstown Pretoria recent customer reviews
I booked the bus for my Nanny as it was the most affordable; considering the pick season. The bus itself is comfortable; and spacious. The only negative issue was the late arrival; the bus got to Queenstown after 23:00 instead of 10:05; it got to Pretoria on time though. The drivers are experienced and drive safe; there were no issues or worry of being unsafe on the road. Please improve with the times; try to keep within the scheduled time.

Firstly it arrived late,it was supposed to be at Ultra city garage at 8 it arrived at past 9 left the garage at 10 past 10,when it gets to Johannesburg park station we waited another 2 hours inside the bus because apparently the bus was owing whatever that was.
Customers express dissatisfaction with the Kak kak bus service, mentioning multiple breakdowns and long delays during their trips. These issues have caused inconvenience for passengers, especially those traveling with children. Similarly, Delta coaches have also been reported to frequently arrive late according to several reviews.
The bus never came, I am still in Queenstown. There was miscommunication from the drivers, I would guess. We were supposed to board with APM but the other man said we must wait our bus is still coming from East London.
