Intercape Mainliner Cape Town Ladybrand recent customer reviews
As always, the seats were comfortable. However, this time the bus was uncomfortably cold and stuffy throughout the journey. Additionally, the staff member assisting passengers was discourteous and communicated solely in his preferred language, without regard for those of us who could not understand it.
