This was the worst and i mean the worst bus ride i have ever had going from nairobi to dar es salaam first of all let me make this clear the bus was supposed to arrive at 4:30 in the morning but instead arrived at 6:00. Everyone was waiting for breakfast stop but we didnt have one we reached Arusha and we only had one stop which was to drop parcels the employees didnt stop for us to get food and when we went down to get some they would scream at us.the two conductors later brought heaps of food for themselves but wouldn’t let us get food.they screamed and laughed early in the morning not letting anyone sleep and the driver keeps road raging at people.there was so much more that happend and most people stayed hungry
