Horrible experience, we had to exchange busses as usual. Inspection intervals, the bus was scheduled to reach destination at 6:18am but arrived at 7:55. This has been a business as usual with Inter City bus services

The driver was so rude to passengers with so much lack of decent communication skills. Not really happy with the whole trip.

The bus was branded as Big Sky , I had an horrible experience!! The bus driver kept on having unnecessary stops and when the passengers complained he was speeding as if he didn’t care about our live. The speed he was going by was too high to a point where everyone feared for their lives . Even the person who collects luggages and checks if they’re seats available was very rude to passengers

Spent 1 hour standing at the Durban Station. Tyre burst in on the road and spent almost 3 hours on the side of the road. All of resulted in me being arriving late by 4 hours.
