Hue to Ninh Binh Destination Reviews

EV

We had to wait for 1 hour for a bus in traffic, which is not a problem at all, if the driver would keep us posted in any other way. No communication at all, he left us in a stationary car with no information whatsoever. Would be nice if he would at least keep us posted and give us an option to get out of the car. Furthermore the tv didn’t work, the airco in the sleeper bus didn’t work sufficiently, so it was extremely hot in the cabin and last but not least the driver drove way to hard, maybe to catch up delayed time, but because of that I didn’t sleep a second while, according to the deal we made, must be the greatest profit traveling with this kind of bus. I’m sorry but I don’t think I’ll recommend this way of traveling.

I would not really recommend this. I initially booked a 7:30 AM bus, but this one was overbooked, I was informed quickly, and I was asked to switch to the 12:30 PM bus. The communication was good. The company apologised for the inconvenience of having to switch to another bus, and offered me a 10% discount on my next trip and were very helpful in trying to find a trip for me. However, this 12:30 PM bus became a 1:00 PM bus, then a 1:30 PM bus, and eventually I arrived in Tam Coc at 12:30 AM, while earlier, when I was asked to switch to another bus, I was told I would arrive at 11:30 PM.

Great experience. They texted me a day before to confirm I would be at the office on time, we left earlier than expected, the bed was supercomfortable and gave massages. And we also had a smooth ride. I recommend knocking on the side on the bed before opening the curtains because passengers do not expect someone randomly opening the curtains without a warning.

Overall it was good, I was especially surprised how clean the toilet still was throughout the night. I couldn't sleep that well though, since one of the drivers drove really fast, which made me feel uneasy. In the end we arrived over an hour earlier.

Bus was great. Left an hour late. My bed could lay flat so somewhat uncomfortable but my families were great. Wide berths and as good as it gets here for tall people.

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.
