Citiliner Plus Pretoria Newcastle recent customer reviews
Bus change took forever we woke up early in the morning to get cold at Johannesburg station because it left Pretoria on time
I'll appreciate it if we can stop exchange the passengers with eldo coaches in the middle of a trip ( that happened on two of my previous trips this year). Also if we can reach Pretoria at 17:40 not 20:00 just like it happened on my previous trip
Make sure the are buses on standby at least. If there’s any failure, mechanical or whatever we can’t wait all day for the bus to be Fixed. Waiting for an Hour is enough not more than that please.
