Time management was absolutely not good, it was bad. Comfortability was good. But please try to adjust departure times so buses leave with the exact time.

The bus was very cold. The aircon was at a very low temperature and its winter. The drivers didn’t want to increase the temperature

Citiliner Plus Welkom Midrand recent customer reviews

I booked for citiliner but it didn't come luckil.. In Greyhound bus they called my name.. When I wanted to hop in the bus they said I should wait for the second bus.. The second bus driver didn't allow me to get in the bus saying that the bus left me behind I should have traveled with the first one. As a first time traveler I panicked because I had connecting buses.. But then that second bus driver said I should travel with him as the first bus driver made a mistake by not all me to travel with him...
