Johannesburg to Durban Destination Reviews

SM
They are taking passengers outside the gate of the bus station, that corner where they made us wait at is not safe at all and so disorganised. And also, when they dropped us off in Durban they dropped us outside the station, and that area also is not safe at 4:30am.
