Hey Everone,

I am going to book a Greyhound bus from Bulawayo (Zimbabwae) to Johannesbug. Does anyone have any opinions on this company or route?

Thanks so much

Lots love from Western Cape

It's a straight shot from Bullies to the Smoke. Only hassle might be the border, filling out those forms with carbon paper, cavity searches and the like. Psyche!!!

i will do the same trip but i have a dilemma.. my flight is from joburg to cape town at 9am.. both intercape and greyhound buses depart from Bulawayo at 16.00 but the intercape arrives at 8 am and greyhound at 05.45 am .. is that possible? will i have time to catch the plane?? or should i come one day earlier?? it is weird that there more than two hours difference between the companies...
