Can Tho to Ho Chi Minh City Destination Reviews

The bus did not go to the correct drop off point stated on the ticket. 7.6km further away. I had already organised a taxi to pick me up and this had completely ruined my plans and wasted over an hour of my time. Destination on ticket 266 Le Hong Phong, destination dropped off at Western bus station.

No one speaks English properly! Make sure there's at least one point of contact. Hotel drop-off service is a nightmare because no one speaks English. I ordered a Grab buy myself which brought in some extra money

Wen we arrived in HCMC there was NO guidance. Noone cared about where I needed to go for the included hotel shuttle, and when I asked around all I got where vague directions which didn't help much. At some point I found a nice driver whom I explained my problem via translate app and who brought me to the shuttle. Again, the shuttle didn't even ask where I needed to go. All I could do was follow the drive via gps and asking them to drop me at the street when we were closish.

Note that staff in bus stations do not speak English. No restroom on bus, we stopped once in our 3.5 hr journey at clean facilities. Middle row of seats a bit claustrophobic, seats w windows better. "A" seats on ground level, "B" seats require climbing up 3 steps. Good experience overall

Excellent service from the driver. Unfortunately, when making the booking, the platform did not allow me to select my seat, and I was assigned seat 11 (last seat on the right-hand side, the backrest does not recline and there is no legroom, it was extremely uncomfortable to travel like this). It is unacceptable that there is no space in the last seats, it is terrible, and that they do not allow you to select your seat. Since I have been travelling around Asia, this is the first time this has happened to me with this platform. Sad but true. However, it was more than compensated for by the excellent service provided by the driver.

Travelling by bus essentials

  • If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
  • VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
  • Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
  • If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
  • Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
  • To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
  • As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
  • Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
  • If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
