Very dissatisfied. Poor service and disgusting way of communicating with customers. Had a breakdown at Louis Trichardt mountain at around 02:30 am on Saturday, only got assistance after 6hrs. All in all the journey took me 42hrs to reach my destination. They need to revisit their way of doing business

Users have shared positive feedback about the overall service and time management, highlighting excellent staff performance. However, there is a concern regarding online ticket holders being moved between seats to accommodate those who purchased tickets in person.

Swiss Express Johannesburg Masvingo recent customer reviews

Great overall service with the time management and service. The only problem is because I bought my ticket online I was treated like a sec class passenger being shifted between seats if those that bought tickets in person board the bus until I was by the toilet
