The experience was not that great, Bus arrived an Hour late in Mosselbay, Then the bus broke down between P.E and Nkandla in the middle of the night, and was told the repair team will only be there in 3 to 4 hours, then the bus had still 2 to 3 hours traveling to East London, I was waiting for my child and had to work the next day, with all this buss robberies and theft in that area I had to make the decision to drive at 12 to fetch my child from the bus. We are regular users of Inter Cape and will continue use the service.
