Intercape Mainliner Pietermaritzburg Kuruman recent customer reviews
It was bad rude driver nearly left me bcause I went to the toilet and he was aware he even told that the bus is not the rural area bus that I'm used to
Keakantse N.
It was a very good trip just that the driver was new on the route and was getting lost and being late wasn't much of the fault of the bus but mother nature decided to flood the route and had to improvise and use other routes that took us longer than expected
Grace K.
I was not able to charge my phone. Please fix that
