The only thing that I did not enjoy is to see myself in uMthatha but was traveling to Idutywa yes I arrived late in Bellvillle after the bus has Departed.Badela announced in Queenstown that people who are going to Adelaide ,Fort Beaufort and King Williams Town have to get off.They did't mention Idutywa so I went with a Bus Number 06 to u Mthatha but later I was given an amount of
One Hundred and Twenty Rands (R120.00) by an African male known to me as Mr Bongani seems as a Bus Driver of Number 06 I have to add an amount of Twenty Rands because a fare to Idutywa was One Hundred and Fourthy Rands(R140.00).Communication was not well.

There’s nothing I enjoyed about this trip. First of all they changed my time because I was supposed to leave Cape Town @15:25 so they changed it to 19:00 and the bus was one hour late. That was not the end of it, when we got to Eastern Cape we waited 4 hours at the garage because apparently the bus ran out of diesel.

The experience was horrible. The bus got at the station on time and I was hopeful little did I know. We were transferred to another bus on the same spot at Bellville bus station. Long story short my ticket indicated that I’d be at Idutywa in the EC at 08:50 am only for the bus to only get there at 11:50 am
