The bus arrived an hour late.. After boarding we were told that it was a shuttle our bus is in Belville.When we got to Belville the story changed the bus was now in Kraaifontein. We got there waited for the bus for another 30-40 minutes. We arrived 2 hours late in Queenstown
There was a problem with the bus but it was quickly dealt with I found that to be very professional but I do have to say the seats aren't quite comfortable my neck is stuff and painful
I booked a bus ticket for my dad from Bellville to Queenstown and when he got there at 06:20 and was told to wait aside then when he went to check again he was told the bus had already left and must go to Worcester, he gets to Worcester and is told the bus is gone. Your people in Bellville station clearly have issues with communication,cause not only my dad but a bunch of other people.
