APMWC Tsolo Johannesburg recent customer reviews

There was nothing to enjoy at all. First of all, the bus was super later by 3 hours and it doesn't have heater so we were freezing the whole 12+hours and lastly the drivers are so rude to the passengers, it's like they don't care at all. I did not like anything about this journey and i certainly wouldn't recommend APMWC Bus to anyone, the service is terrible poor and by far the worst Bus I've ever used to travel such a long distance.

The driver was arrogant, suddenly we’re changing buses without notification. What I loved about the trip is that the bus was clean.
