Who Travels With Us

We are in our 30s and wanted some chill out time after a big family wedding, try some wines, see the sights, meet people, and not worry about who would drive and where each day!!! I looked at every option for months…after checking Bazbus reviews we eventually were convinced to book the 14 day travel pass..and we added a Kruger Park safari package too. Thank you Matt and the office team, we had the best 3 weeks we could have imagined.

Bazbus was definitely something else. You meet new people, get new experiences and understand the best of South Africa. Our driver was the best ever. All the passengers on our bus felt safe and had fun together and a few of us are friends now. Bazbus shows you that there’s more to the beautiful country than just what is shown on other websites. The in-between cities were amazing and we’re so glad to have experienced a new taste of South Africa. 100% coming back when we get the chance!

My husband and I opted for the Cape Peninsula day tour with Baz Bus when we were on honeymoon in South Africa back in July. It was definitely a fuss-free experience as the tour covered all the places we wanted to go, plus, it included live commentary from Mark and lovely music by Freddie! The tour also included pick-up and drop-off from our accommodation which was awesome! Thanks for having us!!

The whole trip was smooth since day 1. The bus was spotless and on time. It was very convenient, safe and comfortable and so EASY to meet people on the bus. Ended up continuing my travel with 3 other girls who I met on the bus.

Baz bus made my South Africa experience as easy as possible. My plans changed a lot and it was easy to just adjust my itinerary online on the fly. It takes away the hassle of getting to and from bus stations and the chaos of transportation as a whole. Definitely worth the premium.

Bazbus had come highly recommended by a few mates and it didn’t disappoint for one second. Solo travelling can sometimes be a little stressful getting from place to place but all of this was eliminated with Bazbus. The beauty about Bazbus for solo travellers is you meet so many people when you get on the bus and you keep on hanging out together all the way to Port Elizabeth depending on what people are doing along the way, it’s great seeing familiar faces around the other cities thanks to Bazbus. Would love to do it all over again!

Back again in Germany from a fantastic journey in South Africa partly together with BAZBUS I would like to thank you. BAZBUS they helped me a lot with my travel arrangements. All my questions in advance were answered very quickly and precise. The bus travel from Cape Town all the way to Port Elizabeth were punctual and very satisfactory. Busus drivers were very friendly, competently.

The staff in Cape Town were also very helpful.

My wife and I were quite skeptical when we booked our journey/adventure that will take us from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town. My wife is in her late 50s and I just turned 61. We had retired our backpacking/spartan travels about 8 years ago. I really don’t know what came over us but following the prescribed itinerary on their website we were ‘hypnotized’ and quickly felt compelled to give this type of adventure another shot!

We followed and booked their suggestions from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town to the tee. It was absolutely one of the best adventures we have had in years!

The drivers and atmosphere were well orchestrated, managed and maintained.

Highly Recommended….young or old!

This was the perfect tour for a couple of backpackers a little older than average. A very convenient way to travel and see South Africa without logistical nightmares. Well worth the money. The flexibility offered by Bazbus is perfect for people who have time to spend at the various destinations. If traveling to South Africa I highly recommend considering Bazbus.

I travelled with bazbus for 3 months. Absolutely loved it! Great way to see the country, get from a to b, and meet other travellers. Busses are comfortable, drivers are safe and very nice, online-service is great and all the stops are worth it! Would highly reccomend this if you have the time, because some travel days are long! Thanks bazbus for an amazing experience of south africa. I also went on the cape peninsula trip in cape town, which was great!

I travelled solo and didn’t want to rent a car to drive to Cape of Good Hope by myself. The pace was unhurried and Mike, our guide, was friendly and approachable, pointed out the various areas along the way, and answered all questions with a solid knowledge base. Asanda was a very safe driver, and was flexible with the drop off at the end (took some of us to the Market next to the waterfront which only runs Wednesday nights). The morning snack and lunch were more than adequate; no one needed to purchase lunch at the lighthouse. Snack consisted of muffins, yogurt, fresh fruits, juices, and there was enough that you could have seconds and thirds if you wanted. Lunch was a casual buffet, with an assortment of artisan rolls with variety of things to make sandwiches (not cheap sliced white bread type deal), chips with a few dip options (guac, hummus etc), fresh salad, juice, and again, more than enough for folks to eat as much as they wanted. Mike had something for the vegetarian in the group. I certainly couldn’t get a driver for 9 hours, snack and lunch for the price in the US. I did not do the seals, but did do the penguins. The line was long but we were allowed right through while Mike stood in the line with our money. If you can have exact change for the penguins would be helpful if you run into that scenario as well. You can’t touch or interact with them btw (some of my fellows travelers thought they would be able to). You are on a boardwalk behind a railing.

I had the best time with the bazbus! You travel safely. The bus brings you from hostel to hostel. You meet a lot of nice people and you are never alone as a solo traveler. The bus drivers are all so lovely and good drivers ;P It’s super easy to book your seat for the bus and you can ask everything! They always help you.

I had the best time in my life 🙂

Lovley greetings and safe travels with bazbus

Bazbus is a great way to explore South Africa. You can plan a trip quickly with the website, which was an excellent option for us since we did not have much time to plan a trip and had a tight schedule. Everything is well organized. Once they pick you up from a hotel, then you are in good hands. The drivers helped people to book accommodations and tours while in the bus, explained details and answered questions.

I must admit, I was a bit skeptical about the bus. We typically fly, rent a car, and go. I do not even recall when I took a bus last time prior to the trip. But I am not disappointed, and, in fact, very happy with our decision. Another important thing is that we decided to do this trip with our two-year old daughter. She was absolutely fine. She had her seat and so was able to lay down and sleep well when she needed.

Overall, I can say that, despite the majority of travellers are in their early twenties, Bazbus can be considered baby friendly.

Again, many thanks! We had a great time!

Was a great day, perfect for the whole family. An interesting, informative way to see the coast of South Africa! All the activities were planned well making it easy to participate even with smaller children or low/high fitness. This day is perfect for all sorts of people!

Our family had a super fantastic day with Mike and Leon. We saw African penguins, seals and hiked the Cape of good Hope.
