Intercape Mainliner Cape Town Botshabelo recent customer reviews
The bus was stuffy when I got on it. My seat couldn't lay back for my entire trip. The driver didn't stop after every 4 hours like he was supposed to. There was a time we were on the bus for 7 hours without a break
Lerato R.
The entire trip was satisfactory. The arrival time was delayed by nearly an hour; but besides that, it was all good
