Intercape Mainliner Estcourt Durban recent customer reviews

I enjoyed the comfort, the luxury, and the timing was what upset me, the bus arrived 30min after the scheduled time, I was waiting at midway outside and it's cold, for midway is not a proper station.

The drive was satisfactory but the staff not very helpful. Bus arrived late at destination and I was pressed from time to get to the airport. I explained this to the driver and his response was everyone is waiting for the luggage. If another lady did not assist me I would have missed my flight to CT. I just about made it for my flight.
