Bus was 2 hours late and when it finally arrived, found out the driver had stopped to drop some one off and left me waiting in the lounge. Tracker was off so staff didn’t even know he had come and gone. I missed my connection in Durban despite booking them nearly 2 hours apart. Shambolic.

The bus is very comfortable and although it was late it was still acceptable as I was aware of the accident that held it up. I was impressed with the booking system. Paperless was awesome
