Users have shared positive experiences with InterCape, highlighting the friendly and professional staff. The bus service is praised for punctuality, safety, and convenience. However, some users noted discomfort due to insufficient air conditioning during trips. Overall satisfaction remains high despite minor concerns about temperature control on board.
As it got darker the aircon made it extremely hot in the bus, we could see it on the windows ad we couldn't get out because we were not supposed to take a break. We had to sit in that extreme heat the whole time probably for hours. A pregnant person can not take that much heat because they would almost faint. The rules are a bit unclear as to can pregnant women throw up in the bathroom or ot since it's only for peeing. Also being pregnant and being made to sit at the seats above is not nice at all because the toilet is downstairs for emergency cases like the extreme heat of last night.

The trip was nice and comfortable. Punctuality was on point. The only thing that was not nice was how hot the bus was. Aircon was not switched on frequently enough to cool us down. Other than that, all was well
