Delta Coaches Midrand Queenstown recent customer reviews

The trip was delayed by 3 hours with no communication. It was very disorganised, we were informed to change buses at Park Station, according to our Destinations. Some people did not hear the announcement and found out during the trip, that they are on the wrong bus. The condition of the bus is very unsafe, the wheels were making a loud sound, and the bus driver informed us the bus had a suspension issue, which was the reason the wheels sounded like they would fall out
