The driver arrived late and I arrived at my destination 4 hours later I couldn't even make it in time for my registration so I'm not happy I'm very much disappointed but the bus is very comfortable and clean

The bus was supposed to arrive in JHB at 4:35pm but we arrived after 6pm. Too many stops. Absolutely dissapointing!

Toilets do not work, they are unflushable and unhygienic. Aircons are always on even when it is cold outside and drivers do not light the light for passengers offboarding.

Big Sky Express Estcourt Johannesburg recent customer reviews
Terrible experience with Big Sky Express. Was informed that the bus was running an hour late, so got to the pick up point 30 minutes prior to the new pick up time (as per the ticket) only to find that the bus had already arrived and left. When we contacted the help centre, they said there is nothing they can do as the ticket says to be there 1 hour before. I sent them proof that my ticket says only 30 minutes prior to departure and they then send me a screenshot that they have updated it to 1 hour but this was never ever communicated, nor was the information provided on any correspondence with them. Furthermore, I was told that I should never have even received a message saying the bus was 1 hour late. Terrible service all around

The Bus was so comfortable I wished I was going far. The biggest challenge was the toilet inside it was so disgusting.

According to the users, the bus was in good condition and generally arrived on time. However, some passengers mentioned issues with late arrivals and limited space due to people sleeping on all seats. Additionally, there were comments about problems related to toilet availability during the trip.

Will never use them again. They were 3hours late arriving in Estcourt. 5 hours late arriving at Park Station. They arrive at a time where taxi transport from the station was very limited. Very very stressful. Their phone lines do not ever go to an operator, there is NO customer service.
