The bus was a nice bus, and relatively comfortable. The driver got us to Cape Town in good time. My only gripe was that the toilet smelled and affected the smell of the whole bus, which was a bit unpleasant.

I was made to take a wrong bus simply because one of the staff personnel refused to check my ticket, just took me in and gave me an attitude …3 hours later he then realised that I was in a bus to East London instead of Capetown, I travelled for more than 12 hours sitting on the stairs coz I did not have a seat on the bus they ended up sending me to. Horrible experience I do not with it on anyone. I was cold , my bum was saw and I felt so embarrassed it was as though I had asked for a free ride
