My impression about their service is that everything was smooth and fast and the drivers was on time
What I didn't like is that our ride was delayed for 1hour 40min due to unforseen circumstances I just hope everyone to arrive at their destinations
Users have reported that the bus service provides a comfortable travel experience. However, there were consistent mentions of buses arriving late by about 30 minutes. Despite this delay, passengers seemed satisfied with the overall comfort during their journey.
My ticket stated that the bus will depart by 9:10am unfortunately it was 20 minutes late, regardless that it was late I had a very comfortable seat, very quiet, clean toilets and the bus trip felt like an hour's trip flight😍

The bus was clean and comfortable. The driver waa also friendly however the ladies working for Eagle Liner were very unprofessional. They checked our tickets while sitting in the bus and also mixed people who were supposed to leave at 9am and 10am together and people who were supposedly yo be in the bus were 9am ,that alone caused confusion and it was incompetent of them .

To start with, the bus was supposed to keave at 09h00 but only left at 09h20. We left from Durban station and before we got to Marian hill the bus driver phoned the office and requested a mechanic to look at the bus because it seemed to be stuck in 4th gear. We struggled on to Pietermaritzburg where the mechanic tried to fix the bus. After about 20 minutes they realized that they could not fix the bus and requested another bus to continue the journey. The replacement bus arrived about 80 minutes later. By that time I had already nade other arrangements.
