Time certainly flies and if you feel like the July school holidays crept up on you and you have no plans, fear not! With these affordable bus prices, planning a last-minute local break doesn't have to break the bank. Whether it is escaping the city for
a beach break, visiting family in Umtata or going shopping in Jozi; there is a bus that can get you there.
Prices below were the cheapest available on SouthAfrica.TO on each of the routes. This is proof that buses are a great alternative to flights, not only because they are budget friendly, but also because they operate on the routes less travelled. We're also happy to report that prices haven't increased nearly as much as flight prices during this peak travel period, with prices remaining fairly similar to those we priced over a month ago.
