Sapa to Ha Giang Destination Reviews

JG

It's incomprehensible that a bus of that category lacks a toilet. I had to beg the driver to please stop for a minute because I couldn't hold it any longer. The driver rudely told me to urinate on the bus, and I told him absolutely not. I insisted he please stop the bus, and more than 20 minutes passed before he finally stopped, with a very rude and intolerable lack of courtesy. I want to file a formal complaint with the company about this unacceptable incident so that no other passenger suffers the mistreatment I endured. The company must prevent these unpleasant situations and sanction the driver.

The bus was quite old and the seats a bit narrow. It was unclear when we were stopping and why we were having so many breaks in between. But okay overall and we arrived on time.

Driver was driving very fast through the bumpy roads and I was flying through the cabin sometimes. We had to be there 30 min before departure, but when we got there 30min before we had to hurry because they wanted to leave already.

We booked our trip from sapa to hai giang and we didn’t had the best journey at all. Employees are rude. We booked for a departure at 11am, the company asked us to be here a 10:20. They wanted to leave super early, stressing us out and speeding you into the bus. We left at 10:40. We stopped no more than 20 min later, the staff went out and bought fruits at the market for another 20min… We ended up arriving at a another bus station and they transferred us to a minibus that dropped us at the right arrival destination 1h later. The only good point is that the WiFi is working well and you have assistance on WhatsApp.

I was disappointed because the Quang Giang Bus that i paid for and chose did not arrive. I was told to get on a different bus company that had lower prices so I overpaid for no reason.

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.
