According to multiple reviews, customers express dissatisfaction with the service provided by Greyhound Citiliner. They mention that the buses are too slow and often arrive late or leave early, causing passengers to miss their connections. Additionally, some customers complain about long travel times due to unexpected route changes and transfers. These issues can be particularly inconvenient for solo travelers who may have difficulty finding alternative transportation options at night. Overall, there is a lack of trust in the reliability and performance of Greyhound Citiliner's service.

Citiliner Plus Middelburg Pretoria recent customer reviews

Totally disappointed, the trip was meant to be 1 h30 minutes and ended up being a 4 hour trip.Bus went to JHB first and had to change busses and again changed to a shuttle to Pretoria. Very distrustful to a teenager traveling qlone, had to pay extra money for Uber because there were no taxis after the bus/shuttle arrived very late in Pretoria (20h00). Very poor performance by Greyhound Citiliner
