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 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.

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)

Brayan was an amazing driver and the trip felt very safe. It’s an awesome way to see the Garden route. I highly recommend.

Bazbus was the ideal way to travel as it’s comfortable, safe and you meet a lot of nice people. Special thanks to Brian and the other drivers!

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.

I traveled 14 days between capetown and PE and back with bazbus. The organization was very easy via their online portal, where you can choose pickup dates&locations once you booked your ticket. Beside the typical backpacker hostels, there is a wide range of guesthouses and hotels to choose from, too. Especially as female solo traveler I warmly recommend the bazbus. It's safe and easy and comfortable since your are picked up/ dropped of directly at the accommodation. I met mostly other solo travelers in the bus, and the drives were relaxing and quiet with refreshing breaks. Special thanks to the driver Brian, with whom I started and ended my trip. He was kind, helpful and fun all along - the perfect way to go along. Also absolutely fair prized! Would always do this again.

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.

Traveling with the Bazbus was a nice experience! Many nice people, hosts and bus drivers along the way:) I would do it again:)

Bazbus is a great way to explore the Garden Route. As a solo traveller, it gave me a lot of reassurance to have the kind and helpful staff members and bus drivers to turn to! They were always ready to give advice and help with planning. On the bus I had great chats. Brian is a lovely person to chat to and with our story times, bus trips flew by too fast!

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.

Everything was perfect! The people, the route, the accessibility, the responsiveness. If we had any questions, we could write the organisation via whatsapp and got an answer within 15 minutes. It was so easy to do the garden route with them. We especially want to highlight the friendliness of the drivers. They all were lovely! Brian was our longest and dearest companion on the route and his kindness was exceptional and inspiring. We also booked the peninsula tour via Cape Town and T. And Bobby were great! T's expertise was imoressive and we got a lot of insights and loved all of it! We also booked the 2 days Addo tour via Bazbus and met Freddy and Welele as our Guides who couödn't be better people and guides. We don't have enough words to describe the experiences we were able to make because of all of those people.

Bazbus is a very easy way to backpack through some of South Africa. The drivers are the nicest and most helpful people ever, especially Brian!

The drivers were friendly, and the bus was comfortable. They added breaks during the trip, which was great for grabbing some food or using the restroom. The online system for selecting pickup locations and scheduling specific parts of the trail works very well. It gives you complete control over your trip, allowing you to plan effectively. One area for slight improvement is communication about the bus's arrival at pickup locations. On one occasion, the bus arrived an hour early without notifying us. If we hadn’t been at the hotel, we might have missed the bus, or the driver would have had to wait for us to return.

Mzi was a good driver, he was so flexible with us, and picked us up from Knysna and brought us to port elizabeth safely with a smooth driving Thank
