My family and I had a very bad experience with this bus service No18 our language went missing when we arrived in Byo 19th December just one out of 5 of us had their language and until today we still haven't recovered all of it. The service was very poor being bounced from one person to the other no care at all not to mention the way back to SA on bus No 04 worst of them all the bus had a faulty toilet which stunk all the way no Aircon we were told there was no gas to get it functional it's unfortunate that we already had return tickets trusting that it was safe and comfortable but none of that all disappointing service I will not using or recommending this bus ever such a ripe off

Users have shared positive experiences with the bus service, highlighting its cleanliness and comfort. The staff is often described as friendly and helpful, contributing to a pleasant travel experience. However, some reviews mention logistical issues such as discrepancies in arrival times and unexpected drop-off locations that could be improved for better customer satisfaction.
Timewise they are good but the fact that they pick people along the roaf poses a threat to passengers
