I had the best experience with Baz Bus! Brian is the nicest guy I ever met, he is super helpful and kind! He likes to tell a lot about South-Africa, you can ask him everything!

Brian was an amazing driver, he made stops whenever we needed, had good conversations and he took us to an amazing bakery along the way!!! Safe driving and got us to where we needed.

I traveled on the bazbus from cape town to jeffreys bay and back again. The places on the route was amazing. I met a friend on the bus and we became very close friends in the short time I traveled. I felt safe traveling as a solo female.my first and last drivers name was Brian. He always has a smile on his face.he filled us in on alot of things to do on my route. I will recogmend bazbus to anyone who want to see the beauty and splendor of the land.

BazBus is a great way to travel comfortably and easily along the Garden Route. The "Hop-on-Hop-off" system is simple, many interesting, amazing and unforgettable places are included, communication is friendly and patient, and it's easy to connect with other travelers. My personal highlight: A special thank you to Brian, one of the drivers. I had lost my bag on the bus with all my important belongings (passport, wallet, etc.). He took care of everything for one night and even brought it back to a non-designated station! The customer service is truly excellent, and I'm very grateful for this big, big favor. I would recommend BazBus to anyone who wants to travel along the route in a pleasant and hassle-free way. I look forward to seeing you again soon!

I had an excellent experience traveling along the Garden Route with Bazbus. On my journey towards Port Elizabeth and back to Cape Town, I had the pleasure of having Brian as my driver. He truly deserves all the praise for making the trip outstanding. I felt very safe throughout the journey, as he was professional and attentive, ensuring every passenger was safely escorted to their door. Brian was not just a great driver but also a knowledgeable guide—always friendly, approachable, and ready to help with anything needed. He even surprised me with a lollipop, which was such a thoughtful gesture since I absolutely love sweets. My experience with Bazbus was truly top-notch, and I would highly recommend it to anyone planning to travel this route. Jana (Slovenia)

Great experience with Bazbus, I had a 8day pass which I used from Cape Town to PE. Very easy to use via the online hop login. As a solo traveller I felt very safe, drivers are super friendly and very helpful. Good price as well. I contacted bazbus via WhatsApp and they reply instantly and are very helpful. Would highly recommend them, exactly as described on their website.

The cheapest way to travel along the coast. Pick ups get later and later in the day the further up the route you go. Ex. Cape Town is 7am while Mossel Bay is closer to 2pm. By the end of the route you are getting on board 7-9pm making it difficult as check out times are usually 10am. In my experience, (Nov 2024) bus was always running behind. No wifi on board. Not more than a handful of traveller's on board at a time so let's of space to spread out.

I traveled from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth during the month of September 2024 and had a great experience. The service offered by Bazbus is of great quality. The platform/website is easy to access and interact with. The girls (Waynita, Stacey, Nick, Auxie, Lumka) who work in online support are very helpful and attentive. The vans have good facilities and the drivers are great and friendly (Brian, Mzi and Simon). *** I Have Only One Complaint: I didn't like the way the driver Mr. Mwande works and how he drives the car. He drives very fast, putting passengers at risk and making the trip uncomfortable. He always calls you before the scheduled departure time saying that he will arrive early at the meeting point. There were 3 times when he arrived 2 hours early and still rushed me to put the bags in the van. In addition, he doesn't take care of the passengers' luggage.
