APMWC Paarl Queenstown recent customer reviews

Firstly there was nothing I enjoyed. The bus arrived 2 hours late and there was no communication advising us that the bus will be late. on route the driver overtook another vehicle over a solid line which had him being pulled over by the traffic officer and received a fine. Halfway through the trip we encountered a road block and was held there for almost 2 hours because the bus company has outstanding traffic fines. This caused everyone on the bus to be 4 hours late. I will never take a nother bus trip with this bus company. Always late. No communication whatsoever and uncomfortable seats.

I didn't even get to have a journey because my bus left me, yes I was 5 min late but not even a phone call to ask how far I am. Ontop of that I try to make contact but no luck, the numbers were unavailable until 30 min later. When I got ahold of someone eventually, there was no apology or them transferring me to another of their buses. My money had gone to waiste and I am never even looking their way again 🙌and will not be recommending it to anyone I know
