Intercape Mainliner Graaff Reinet Cape Town recent customer reviews
The bus was more than 45 minutes late to arrive at my pickup point, with no communication, and no personnel on site to keep passengers informed. This is very stressful.
It then spent more than an hour at a stop 3 hours from the destination with noone disembarking, no one joining, no refuelling, and no explanation.
We were therefore more than 2 hours late to arrive at our destination, with no apology.

Service sucks! No after hours contact number. Ladies waiting on bus at garage and cannot reach out to the company to hear if bus is still coming or if we should go back home. Then we'll loose our money again.

I enjoyed how time efficient they were and the occasional bathroom breaks were on point. I also liked the comfortability of the seats and how well ventilated the bus was.
