it was overall good but the bus departed about 45 minutes late with no explanation. We arrived one hour late in Pietermaritzburg.
Nothing at all poorest service ended up not be in the bus. I actually wouldn't recommend to anyone.
I booked a bus for 8pm. I was stranded until 9pm and on top of that there was no space in the bus that I had booked and they allocated me to another one that was really smelly. One thing I can commend them for is arriving on time despite being late
