Hoi An to Da Lat Destination Reviews

Choosing to ride a VIP car is a wise choice compared to the 38-bed car that I have experienced before, the big bed is very comfortable. Helpful admin
Bus VIP 20, An Phu Hoi An Travel, Mar 7, 2024

The bus was very spacious and very comfortable. The staff was super nice. All in all it could have been a super nice overnight ride! But there were two things that were a bit annoying: 1) if you book a certain time, you won’t leave at that time. But they group people from different departure times together, so they don’t have half empty buses. That would be absolutely fine (especially as we arrived on time anyways) but it’s annoying to wait so long before getting on the bus. 2) the driver was driving super fast and honking all the time. This made it impossible to sleept. While the VIP Sleeper is so comfortable, you could easily sleep through the long drive, yet the noise from the honking and trying not to fall out of your bed due to the crazy driving, you literally won’t be able to sleep.

Bus was on time and the right place. As much honking as you would expect. The bus stopped for a brake 3 times in the 12-hours trip.

No curtains or charger points for the seats. Stopped at the dirtiest service station I've ever seen!

The bus driver and attendant were quite pushy, demanding and yell at tourists.They made all of the tall tourists (I'm 192cm) sit in the smallest seats at the back of the bus (while trying to tell us they were the same) for 14 hours, while the other large comfortable seats remained empty for most of the journey with local people only occupying them for a few hours. In general the operators of these bus are deceitful, rude and treat tourists very poorly.

Bus had a 1h delay. Driver was always honking through the whole night. The bus suspension broke down before we could even depart.

One stop in 12 hours journey is not enough but at least it was announced.

The operator was 1h delayed but managed to arrive 1h30min early. It was almost impossible to get any sleep as the driver was honking all the way, making overtakes on turns and sometimes speeding, the bus was shaking a lot all the time. We also stopped in a nice gas station where we only had few minutes to use the toilet, even thou they had food there, then we stopped in a pretty bad, dirty and overpriced place to get some food, just 10 minutes later. Felt like they have some deal to take the passengers to this place. Tough ride.

Staff was really rude, refused to answer our kindly asked questions, and didn’t even want to open the bus (they were having dinner) when my friend was locked in!

Only told us the bus was delayed by an hour when we arrived at the pickup. Bus was three beds across so very small and the blankets smelled terrible. Driver was very erratic and slammed on the breaks a couple of times. But we arrived earlier than expected despite the delay.

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.
