Ninh Binh to Hue Destination Reviews

MG
María G
The trip was on time, smooth, and uneventful. It was calm and quiet. However, after making the reservation, we found out that if we had booked directly with the company, we would have been able to choose our seats on the bus. That would have been quite helpful because they put us in the first two seats, right next to the driver, which meant we were woken up many times by the horn, the driver change, and the driving. Also, they could have mentioned the size of the cabin—we didn’t fit very comfortably. On top of that, we were a bit confused about the pickup service; some people told us they could come pick us up, while others said they couldn’t. In the end, it turned out they couldn’t.

I had a very good experience with this company; they were very attentive from the start. On rainy days, they picked us up at the hotel and always looked out for all the passengers.

Arrived an hour and half late with no reason. Originally 8:30hr trip took 10.2 hours. We stopped 20 minutes into the journey for food which was wierd considering we had the rest of the day and after that we didn’t stop until about 1 hours before we reached our destination (we also weren’t told the first stop was the only food stop, had we of know, we would of got some food for the journey). We were starving having eaten at 8am and didn’t eat till 7pm. It of an annoying trip but the coach itself was clean and tidy.

The drivers were really rude and aggressive and they shouted at everyone. We laughed about it, but actually that's not OK!!

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.
