Big Sky Malelane Bloemfontein recent customer reviews
I enjoyed the smooth driving and it shows how experienced they are ...just the problem is the refreshing times ...I don't mind the buses with toilets...my problem is the once that they don't have them, there is no way we can have 2 stops for refreshing(bathrooms)..from Malelane to Bloemfontein...I think they should consider that next time. But besides that I enjoyed my ride yesterday and everything was on time departure and arrival.
