Intercape Sleepliner Windhoek Cape Town recent customer reviews
Bus was comfortable, toilets didn't flush and sinks had no water. A window broke and we had to wait almost 5 hrs for a replacement bus from windhoek. Gear shaft broke, delayed again. It's 9m and I still haven't reached Cape Town, we were meant to arrive at 1pm...
Once again it was a perfect ride. Leaving and arriving as scheduled. Clean comfortable bus with two amazing drivers. Price is always fair. Overall 10 out of 10
the journey was great. As a tall man it’s always uncomfortable in buses, but I have to say that it was better than other buses.
