We had wonderful drivers Mr Zondi and his colleague. They gave us enough refreshing stops. They were mindful of the time though they never rushed us they went extra mile when the time for stop is up politely went to remind the passengers in the shops and after that do a head count in the bus to make sure everyone is on board. The toilet 🚻 was in order. Keep up good work guys. Excellent service 👏

We arrived in time, the bus was comfortable. It was cold in the bus, a heater would have helped a lot since most of the people didn't have blankets. I wasn't prepared for that coldness!
