Intercape Mainliner Ladysmith East London recent customer reviews

Bus got delayed by two hours, they notified us only in 11 minutes before they arrived that they delayed whereas they long knew that they were going to delay since the was an accident in vooslorus. We stayed at the bus station freezing with no reassurance or anything from Intercape! Bad experience with no communication!!
