It was my first time taking APM, I wanted to cancel after I booked because I know there's always something about the bus It was supposed to depart from Cape Town at 1h30 pm, I received a SMS apologising saying the bus will depart at 15h00 I became patient with that, from 15h00 it was late with few minutes. The experience with the drivers was excellent for me I don't wanna lie, we were late by an hour but that was caused due to refreshment breaks. The elderly driver seem very experienced with driving I was very comfortable.
