Had a very bad experience the bus got stuck even before we left jhb, we were stuck for 3 hours waiting for another bus. We booked a 6pm departure but ended up leaving Jhb @ 21:50.

I enjoyed the fact that it was on time even though it wasn’t on time as scheduled but I understand it was because of circumstances like traffic and rain. I did not like the fact that the air-corn was on all the time, I was feeling cold.

The bus never arrived. We were transported in small vehicles to go meet another bus at a different location
and only left Johannesburg at midnight. Worst Experience ever.

First of all the bus very late then we had to wait for more than 2 hours for it. Then it had a breakdown to a point that we are still on the way as I'm typing this feedback. Very, very disappointed 😞

Delta Coaches Johannesburg Mount Frere recent customer reviews
The experience was horrible! They advertised a toilet and wifi but of course that was a lie. There was no heater/aircon, could not open the windows, and we had to switch buses at 1:30am, wait in the streets for half an hour in the freezing cold, because the the bus had mechanical faults and was unsafe to continue our trip. We also did not get breaks to get food or relieve ourselves for over 9 hours! In summary, DON'T DO IT!

The worst!. The whole trip was a mess,the bus was not branded so we are not sure if it's really a Delta bus as we booked. No toilets as stated on description. The bus got stuck three times on the road .It was not clean,the charging port was not working. We arrived 4 hours later than the anticipated arrival time.
