Eagle Liner Cape Town Germiston recent customer reviews
The staff was very professional and drove very carefully, gave us enough time for breaks and were accommodative… the only issue I would raise is with the actual bus it self, seats didn’t recline and windows need their rubbers tightened up and a suggestion: ( please maybe on the long distance trips like Cape Town not to take up so many people) we were filled to the rim. Other than that I had a good and safe trip .
