This was the worst trip ever. The bus was 3hours late. Broke down. The drivers were driving very fast to a point where we had to tell them the way that they are driving is not okay. I was suppose to get off at 7:30 and only got off at 12:30.

I arrived at Pretoria Station and we were driven with a Budget liner with no functioning charging ports to Park Station. We were told that we will change to the Luxuryliner. We waited 3 hours at Park Station for the bus to arrive. Once inside it was so unbearable how musty it was because there was no ventilation because they didn't switch the air conditioner on until we stopped at Beaufort West.
