If you are waiting for a bus or a ride (e.g. Uber/Bolt), wait inside the 24-hour TotalEnergies convenience shop rather than standing on the sidewalk with your luggage. If you need to stay overnight, it is recommended to look for accommodation in the nearby suburbs like Three Rivers or Risiville, rather than staying in the immediate CBD area.

General Safety considerations

Please check the specific safety ratings for your departure and arrival stations above. Many bus stops have safety issues; it is better to arrive at bus stops while the sun is still shining (nighttime is always riskier), with weekdays generally being safer than weekends. Do not display valuables, keep them safe and out of sight. Plan in advance how you will get from your final Intercape bus stop to your destination so as to minimise time at the bus stop.

Why so slow?

You may be wondering why the journeys take so long. Part of the reason is that Intercape have a self-imposed speed limit of 95km/h on national roads and 40km/h on mountain passes - this is for safety reasons. Speed kills.
