Intercape Mainliner Pretoria King William’s Town recent customer reviews
Punctual and clean from Pretoria but portals to charge cellphones were nit working. The bus was sticky and very dirty by the time we arrived at King William's Town. Waste bags and continuous announcements on the use of bags might help.
