Very comfortable bus lack of communication and confusion at the boarder overall the staff was nice
Users have expressed satisfaction with the punctuality and overall service, highlighting a safe journey experience. However, there is feedback suggesting that clearer communication from bus staff at border crossings would be beneficial for first-time travelers unfamiliar with procedures.
I enjoyed punctuality.
The bus staff should make sure that they inform the passengers of what is happening and what to do exactly at the border. Not to just say get off of the bus. Some of us are first time travelers and not aware or used to the system.

My bag was stolen. There is no bathroom in the bus. It was very cold because the windows let in some wind despite being closed. Driver was driving way too fast I could barely sleep due to fear and anxiety

Iam not at all satisfied with Delta coaches.My overall impression is that they have little to no respect for their work or their customers.
I asked for a window seat and was given seat number 5,there was no room for me to even sit, the seats were too close together.Asked for change of seats and was asked why iam being difficult.I was given a different seat after I asked the guy attending if he can sit the whole trip to SA the way he just asked me to.Was moved to seat number 15,that has a lot of air blowing from under the bus my feet were frozen by the time I got to joburg.Upon arrival in joburg we were given 5 minutes to get off the bus,I asked to use the toilet for a change of jeans as I had messed my jeans up,was asked why I wasn't more careful and told off by the driver everyone referred to as shortie.Not to mention that the toilet door doesnt have a proper hatch to close,you have to use a rope to balance it closed.When I mentioned that I will be leaving a review he tried adjusting his tone.I can go on about what happened even at the border and the unnecessary remarks the short driver was making in front of the officials.
Second time iam using Delta,both times iam not happy.In 2022 when I used their services we got stuck in Midrand for 4 hours waiting for another bus to come fetch us after the breakdown.
Can they please take us their customers seriously

Passengers have shared positive experiences with the bus service, highlighting punctuality, cleanliness, and friendly drivers. The booking process was easy and the buses were comfortable with well-functioning amenities. However, some reviews mentioned delays at border crossings or when leaving stations. Overall satisfaction remains high among users who appreciate professional staff and reliable services.
The time it left the station was 30minutes late and the exchange to a better coach by the boarder was cool but one would question why we were not offered it in the first place.
