Yosuke HThe arrival time was supposed to be at 6 pm but it became 8:30 pm, and the hotel was 4 mins away and he told us no to drive us there even it was more than 2 hours late

Peter RThe same bad experience like with the trip to Ban Gioc, that the driver did not drive straightly to the destination, but let local people ride with the limousine and in one case we even waited for a local woman. This detours are absolutely no-goes!

Jan ADriver was on time, pick up and drop off service were excellent. Style of driving was the worst we ever experienced in Vietnam.

Mandy KThe driver was great this time. No risky manoeuvres or speeding. 👍
The annoying bits were that we booked for 2pm and were pushed to 3pm on short notice. No big drama but then the driver only rocked up another 40mins later. No comms from the operator.
The drive itself then took close to 7 hrs as opposed to the 5:30hrs that are posted on the website. Didn’t hit any traffic or roadworks - not sure how they usually make it in 90mins less.
Only arrived in Hanoi half past 11 (as opposed to 8pm) and had to sprint to make it to the hotel check-in in time. No dinner that night.
Bus was OK but seat belt was broken, couldn’t adjust seat angle and all charge-ports we tested weren’t working.
We got there in the end but there is room for improvement.

Soleine RVery good except that we had the two places at the very back of the bus and down seats and the motor is vibrating a lot which makes me unable to sleep… for the same price as other places i think it’s not fair and too expensive :)

Abi Everything went smoothly from the pick up to the time it took to drop us off , unlike the other van we took to get up there that took 7h+ for a 5h journey. ( I believe this was a different company )

Tamara KThe pictures of the van on the site are not real. That was far from a luxury van. Also, the driver made us sit in the front with him and said that we booked "budget seats" although when we booked the tickets that was not mentioned, neither was there an option to choose seats.

Georgia NGot a text from the driver the night prior saying he would pick us up from our accommodation at 0800. We waited until 0845 and then the receptionist at our hotel kindly called the driver on our behalf. Driver refused to come to our hotel, instead we had to walk with all of our luggage to a different hotel, where we got picked up at 0925. The driver then seemed confused that we were requesting to go to the airport, even though this was clearly documented on our ticket. Thankfully he did take us to the airport after some discussion, but overall a very stressful experience.

Camille BThe driver was kind to pick me up where my hotel was, but we have done only one stop during the journey and with no hot meals. We were one hour late and the driver accepted to make a detour for one person and we lost 30 minutes... I arrived almost first and I could not chose my seat and eventhough they were seats in the back, I had to seat in the front.
