Citiliner receives praise for its comfortable and smooth rides, with commendations for the great service provided by drivers. However, some passengers have noted concerns regarding other travelers consuming alcohol on board, which can create an uncomfortable environment. Addressing these issues could enhance the overall travel experience further while maintaining safety and comfort standards.

The service was great but what I did not like or felt uncomfortable with were other passengers consuming alcohol in the bus. This behaviour should not be tolerated because as a female passenger seating right next to someone who is drinking alcohol and drunk is very unsafe and uncomfortable.

The staff was very helpful I enjoy the comfortable seats and the breaks in between your journey .What I dis liked is I saw cockrotches coming out from the windowsill before we departure time from the buse that departed Durban station at 22:09 yesterday. I was sitting on the top compartment front sit on the right side.I also saw used gums that people used and disposed on the windowsill.

Their seats are comfortable, they have charging ports which are convenient but time wise? They are very delayed. I booked a trip for my boyfriend and I at 20:30pm on Sunday to arrive in Joburg at 5:25am on Monday. Which would give us enough time to get home and ready for work but no. We got to Joburg at 8, and dropped off in Midrand at 9!!! Such an inconvenience for us to call in work and say we will be late
