I enjoyed the ride. I didn't enjoy that there was miscommunication amongst drivers on where they were driving to, which forced me to exit one bus and move to another, only to be told I have to go back to the first one again.

The driving was very good and excellent the drivers are highly experienced. I did not enjoyed at Queenstown @Sasol Garage where we stopped for refreshments the toilet conditions were very poor and inadequate. All males had to stand in a que to use one toilet and the rest of the toilets were not were working, It was a very disappointing moment disgusting and unhygienic. I just wish next-time they choose a better stop that accommodates everyone.
