Intercape Mainliner King William’s Town Mount Frere recent customer reviews

The bus arrived six hours late so I left at 15:00 for a trip that was supposed to be a 9:20 to 15:00.. ontop of that it took more than 7 hours to get to Mount Frere. I was left stranded as there’s no transport from town to our villages in town around that town. If it was not for petrol attendant I could’ve been another homicide statistic. Intercape doesn’t care about the safety of its passengers as long as they get their money
