Intercape Sleepliner Cape Town Beaufort West recent customer reviews
The bus was very comfortable and satisfying. What I didn't like is the way the driver spoke to the passengers Asif we are invalids and he was very impatient.
The bus was spacious, had charging ports, ventilation and new entertainment tv screens. Our trip was also more or less punctual.
I enjoyed everything except the fact that one cannot switch the aircon off or adjust it to suitable condition from the buttons above my head
