I enjoyed nothing at all...first i had to wait an hour for my bus,when it finally arrived,i got on the bus,drove until Bloemfontein,there they told me I'm on the wrong bus and had to wait for my bus which took 45minutes,while waiting there,i encountered a lady called Sara or Sarah or whatever,anyhow,that member does not know how to speak to people at all,think they should take the time and teach her.

The bus was on time and very neat inside. The drivers drive well, journey itself went smooth. The driver do need a loudhailer or system for announcements so every.one can hear what he is saying when we stop. The bus is never on time as he has to pick up and drop off along the way, which is understandable.
