The trip was very wonderful, we arrived earlier than expected. The drivers were very kind. I was a bit upset because the drivers were not told that they must drop us at Intercape Beach Office but they finally agreed to drop us

The bus was supposed to depart at 21:30 and only departed at 22:50. That was not nice.
Many users appreciated the friendly and accommodating drivers, noting that buses were generally clean and comfortable. Eagle Liner was highlighted as budget-friendly with commendable service. However, some reviews mentioned issues such as unnecessary stops causing delays, lack of power outlets or ventilation on certain buses, small seats leading to discomfort for passengers during long journeys without toilets available onboard.
I was told to pay for a cooler box and I wasn't aware that I have to pay for it,I did not have cash I had to run to the ATM to get cash.
Very disappointed.

Couldn't adjust my seat and the heat from my bottom left was burning my leg, the driver was too fast. He entered Durban an hour before. The last trip l was satisfied even though we got to Johunesburg late but it was understandable, the delay was coursed by passengers.

1. The bus was meant to leave Johannesburg at 19h45. We ended up leaving at 20h43. However, there were not delays arriving at the destination.
2. All charging ports that were promised were not operational. As a results I had to walk from durban station to the house since I could not make transport arrangements

I enjoy it although it stopped twice having mechanical issues. Unfortunately drivers were not interested to explain the problem to passages, but maybe it a rule

This bus was 1hour 30 minutes late and there was no communication. We were supposed ever to Durban at 5pm however we got to Durban at 8pm. I was almost left at Montrose and had to run behind the bus.The charging pod doesn’t work, most of us were complaining.

It’s 09:53 21 September and I’m still in the bus in Harrismith, had the bus gotten to Park station on time instead of an hour and a half late, we would’ve gotten ahead of the snow storm

Firstly I did not know that the bus does not get inside the park station like other buses. Had i have not asked about its parking i was gonna be left behind. It is not safe in the boomgate where it parks. We were sent sms's advising of the delay. It was a 9pm bus however it delayed to 10pm. We were transported by an SMT bus and not by an APMCW bus that we booked and there was no explanation for the changes. The trip was horrible. The bus had windows that did not close properly. It was extremely cold. There was dust all over and the driver was rude
