The bus was an hour late and it was very full many people were struggling to find seats to sit and we weren't getting more time to get into the shops

The trip was good but the driver was very rude and when we stopped in Vryburg to get refreshments , he just left to go fill the bus at the filling station without telling us. We stood longer than half an hour waiting for him to come back.
