The bus was clean and the staff were friendly buh I didn't enjoy that part of air-conditioner it was extremely and I tried to reason with them to switch it off or rather to warm not cold

The bus was on time. The driver was efficient and assisted with ticket issuing and luggage handling. The bus was clean and neat. However, we didn’t have the option of booking our preferred seats and ended up having to share seats with people that were traveling alone as we couldn’t find seats to seat together. The AC was acting up….very hot on embarkation and very cold in when we were trying to sleep at the early hours of the morning! The toilet was soiled and we couldn’t use it.

We were suppose to arrive in joburg at 20:00pm but we arrived two hours late 21:50pm, because the driver kept on stopping unnecessarily. We stopped for almost an hour in vryburg and 30 minutes in woolies and there was no explanation. It was very frustrating.

The pick up point on our ticket was completely wrong and as a result we could have missed the bus completely. Secondly the heat was cranked up on full blast with a bus full of people and it smelled terrible.
