Big Sky Potchefstroom Bloemfontein recent customer reviews
I loved that the buses arrive on time, and they also drop of on time as well. I did not like how fast the driver was driving on the way to Bloem as weather conditions were quite bad. And some seats were broken making the experience very uncomfortable.
