Intercape Budgetliner Express Cape Town Cofimvaba recent customer reviews
I was dissatisfied with my experience. The bus was very late — I booked for 19:30, but it only departed at 21:30. That’s very disappointing and inconvenient.

Masixole M.
The journey was unpleasant because the bus was extra hot. The aircon was not working and apparently we were told to open the two side windows but the wind was too strong to bear.Only two of the charging ports were working for the whole bus. The heat in the bus made me regret ever riding in this bus.

The bus was so filthy and it smelt horrible. The bus is not in any condition to be travelling long distance. It kept stopping on the road because it needed to be filled with water. We were meant to arrive at our distinction at 06:50 but it only arrived 08:30. Never again!
