There was no toilet no waste bag or tv on the bus.very dissapointing for the price i had to pay.very dissapointed.
Friendly staff, in the offices and in the coach. Very helpful and I am 110% satisfied.
I was happy with everything except that I was sitting next to the toilet and it was smelling badly especially when the door is opened. I told the driver but he couldn't do anything since it wasn't his job to clean the toilet.
I made a mistake booking 3 tickets instead of 2 tickets booked for Noluthando *2
The bus is comfortable , except that it was late by more than an hour, and arrived very late.
