Intercape Mainliner Cape Town Springbok recent customer reviews
Bus stood in the middle of no where. Drivers did not tell passengers what is going on. There was a big delay time wise. Aircons and everything were off. I was claustrophobic at times due to no ventilation. There is also cockroaches on the windows.
