Best option for solo travelers - Walking out to the Bazbus in Port Elizabeth, I was greeted by Brian and Mze. On my first ride, Brush shared the history of the company, asking with his personal experiences, and some awesome recommendations for the Garden Route. I made 5 stops along the way and everytime I got back in the bus, the drivers were super friendly and greeted me, especially Brian and Mze, with whom I rode 4 of my 5 trips. The bus was always punctual, and on the last trip, it was quite early (likely due to the holidays) and Brian dropped me off for my last leg of the trip into Cape Town. I highly recommend this service, and if you're lucky enough to have Brian as your driver, you're in for a treat!

Port Elizabeth - Knysna - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great ride on the Bazbus from Port Elizabeth to Knysna! Communication with Charon and everyone else was great – fast, friendly and helpful. The driver explained everything well and even made a nice little breakfast stop. Relaxed, organized and with humor – gladly again!

Riding the BazBus along the Garden Route - I traveled the Garden Route to Cape Town. We had a very friendly driver Brian. During the journey, he introduced us to various sights, which made this trip even more beautiful. Above all, I felt very safe. He took care of every passenger and escorted us to the door of the hotel, we also had stops in safe places. Thanks Brian for a great day and safe driving! You are the best.

The best way to get around South Africa safely - Bazbus’s idea of making South Africa accessible by bus is simply great with its multiple stops between Port Elizabeth & Capetown. In addition, it’s really reassuring that the bus picks up the passengers and drops them off at the Inn. Comfortable bus and pleasant driver in particular Brian, always smiling and in a good mood with whom I had the opportunity to make 2 trips. Sometimes the driver will pass very early depending on the traffic, but in this case, he warns passengers via WhatsApp and leaves the choice between boarding at the agreed time in the schedule or earlier if one is ready. It happened to me twice and I was able to choose both solutions. A huge thank you to Janine and the office team in Capetown for your professionalism and kindness. I highly recommend Bazbus especially to solo travelers like me.

Recommended transport whilst in SA - Great experience using Bazbus to skirt the garden route from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town. They even organised a separate shuttle for us between Jeffery's Bay and Knysna on a day they were not operating. Would highly recommend as reliable and safe transport along this route.

Great way to travel - Really great way to travel along the Garden Route. Easy to plan and book the bus, but also super easy to change your schedule. As 2 female travellers we felt very safe, the drivers escorted us into our hostels and even waited until we checked in to ensure everything was sorted. No major delays, the one time we were going to be late arriving (and had an activity booked at the destination) they called ahead and asked the company to wait for us.
