Big Sky Express Graaff Reinet Pretoria recent customer reviews

I enjoyed the comfort of the bus however the delays were too big. The bus was about 3 hours late for departure and obviously late arrival affecting the next transport. There were also delays caused by the request to change buses before reaching the destination. This was not only time consuming but also draining. It became a horrible trip
