Bus was late, bus was dirty and had a bad smell. We had no choice but to get in as we had already paid. Our bus broke down at 5am logged a call and was promised a mechanic. Its now 11:54 no repairs on the bus nor alternative transport arranged nor cash refunds. We are still waiting. Service is very bad! Book it at your own risk.

We booked our ticket for 5pm but received a text message 3 hours prior saying the time has been shifted to 3:30pm which was cool. We got at the station and the bus left on time but took a very long route. From Cape Town to bellville, to Paarl, to George picking up people along the way. No communication whatsoever from the drivers. We first hit things in the road, almost hit an ambulance on a stop and go, bus swerved and bounced when we got in Port Elizabeth. The road was slippery but the driver just didn’t care. We were 3 hours late. Those that were supposed to be dropped of in Qumbu were dropped off in Mthatha. It was my first and last time. I’ll never take APM again in my life, it was the worst of the worst
