We made unnecessary stops in the middle of the road. During breaks the drivers took longer than the 15 minutes. They were driving like they weren't carrying people's lives. It was just bad.

I booked for a 17:30 ride and booking was confirmed. Changes were made to my trip and Eagleliner claims that they sent sms informing everyone about the change of time from 17:30 - 17:00. Why not give a call about such an important change affecting my booking. I was only informed about the sms when I phoned customer care.

The trip was fine. If only I was made aware that I was booking a ticket for a site seeing trip. Besides the 8 hour it took, there were also baby cockroaches in the bus, that annoyed me. The driver and his co driver were wonderful on this journey.

The bus was of 16:00 and I arrived at 15:30. I was awaiting for the bus for about 2hrs. I called Greyhound, their customer care line was so ineffective no one pick the phone. I then went to its Facebook page. After complaining in the lack of customer care, they then send the message informing that the bus is delayed. I followed Up again asking on what time will the bus. No response.

I did not receive the ticket to my email as supposed to be the case. On my last destination I was asked for the ticket by the inspect of which I didn't have. I was tired and the only thing in my mind was to go home and sleep. The other thing, the bus arrived late from my boarding station. Customer care is non-existent. The emails bounced. Some phone numbers listed on the site are not working. The one that happens to go through, the lady answering the phone was very poor.

Overally their service is good. The 20 minutes delay was due to leaving Park Station a few minutes late otherwise we would have arrived in Bloemfontein on time.

Firstly, the bus was late. It was in such a good condition. When we got to Johannesburg station, we were told to get off that took an hour. We left and then in the middle of the trip the second driver told us he’s going to their depot to change the bus again. We were delayed and the hospitality was terrible
