Too many stops, arrived at the destination almost four hours later. The seats are uncomfortable, the charging portal weren’t working and no ventilation at all. Horrible.
The bus was very old and dirty and drivers was always busy on his phone while driving, No professional service 😑
Very unpleasant, the bus stopped at Bellville for 1 to 2 hours, we only left Cape Town after an hour we were only counted after departure time. On our way then we're hiking other people for extra cash. One window wasn't closing properly and we were very cold and the USB ports didn't work.
