Intercape Sleepliner Windhoek Cape Town recent customer reviews
Drivers were polite, friendly & helpful. Delayed leaving by an hour, as checks on coach very thorough. Delay extended by slow Boarder crossing, Drivers made up most of the lost time due to crossing. Would definitely use this service again if travelling Southern Africa.
