When my mom booked my ticket, she was not told that there will be a very long waiting period (7-8 hours!!) in Bloemfontein before I would have to get onto another bus to continue to George. This was totally unexceptable and I changed my ticket to Sunday morning at a extra cost of R145. Plus I had to pay someone to fetch me back to Catoridge and then bring me to Pietermaritzburg again on Sunday
The journey was described as very nice and safe, with friendly and respectful drivers. However, some users mentioned that the trip took longer than expected.
