Bus 3 hrs late
The bus was late, arriving 30 minutes after the supposed departure time. Either than that I’m happy with my trip, it was safe.
The bus left me at Somerset East without explaining to me that I’d need to get into a shuttle there. The shuttle left me there yet I was going to Paarl not Somerset! I had to find a way to get to Paarl which was not budgeted for at all! Horrible experience! Tell your staff to explain to passengers clearly!

I enjoyed and good service
Seats are comfortable but there is no room space. Also the driver played loud music when it was time to sleep so that was not comfortable
Good and affordable but it always delays. It never arrives on time.
