Misleading information of where the bus was going, booked to go to Harare but i was dropped in Joburg… taken to a different bus, with terrible service, uncomfortable non- reclining seats, & overloaded. My ticket booking was supposed to arrive 2am plus 2 hrs with delays. Its 7:34am and am still 6 hrs away from arriving to my destination. The Journey by bus from Captown to Harare is waay too Long, These delays are a health hazard.

The bus was supposed to depart at 10am but we left after 2pm. And at 3 sisters we changed the bus and gets to another one since the one we boarded first wasn't fit for the road. My worst traveling experience ever.
