I am extremely disappointed with Intercape’s service. We bought tickets for a bus scheduled to leave Cape Town at 17:30, but the bus only departed at 22:00 with no explanation or proper communication. As if that wasn’t enough, we are now stuck in Kirkwood for another 5 hours, and the driver hasn’t given us any updates or information about what’s happening. The complete lack of communication and consideration for passengers is unacceptable. This has been one of the most frustrating and unprofessional travel experiences I’ve ever had. I would not recommend Intercape based on this trip.

The drivers are arrogant and rude. Horrible and Dangerous driving, just because he was late he thought speeding and overtaking other cars would make up for the lost time. When we got to Queenstown we were told to board another bus where it was so full there were no seats left and we were forced to stand. They drivers are ignorant, they don't care about anyone unless they're making money. They even left other people stranded there. Everything was a mess nje and we waited another 2 hours in Queenstown because of the unorganized boarding sh*t.
