It was a comfortable journey and the cabin beds were spacious with a cosy blanket included. The only thing I’d say is I wish they stopped more regularly to use the toilet but overall a smooth comfortable journey.

Honestly I did not have high expectations going into this experience because the recent reviews are quite bad, however, I was pleasantly surprised and pleased with my experience. The bus that I was on was on time for pick up, arrived at my destination an hour early, and was pretty smooth overall. The bus that I was on was clean and had not been overbooked, so there were no passengers on the floor like others have reported. There were working charger ports, curtains, lights, etc. The beds were quite small and not particularly comfortable, but it could have been much worse. Points have only been knocked off of my review due to the small, uncomfortable beds, and the initial chaos and disorganization of boarding the bus.

Loved the idea of the train. Paid extra for a 2 cabin. That was worth it. Some great views, the trolley came round quite a bit, reasonable prices. Hard, uncomfortable bed, very noisy train. But what do you expect for the money.

Nice clean bus! However we got there 3 hours later than the expected time. Lots of stop offs and no notification from the driver.

It was amazing. Bed is hard...suck it up. I had awesome room mates. Very considerate. Although we didn't speak because of a language barrier. But the trip was great. The scenery just before Da Nang coming from the north was worth the whole trip, although I feel like I got a better feel for the country as we went south. Everything was great. The train was a bit behind, and I only mentioned this to those that might not know. Just plan to get there when you get there and dont sweat it. If you are worried about punctuality go to Japan. Here leave your cares and problems behind here and just go with the flow...and it was only like a hour late, on a 17 or so hour trip. The station was easy to navigate, everything was awesome.

Good bus and facilities but poor experience with the driver and the team who was highly unprofessional, rude and not really helpful. Also, the team smoked while en route, which caused to a strong smoke scent in the whole bus.

Should I tip taxi in Da Nang?

Tipping taxi drivers in Da Nang is not a common practice, but it is appreciated. Most fares include the cost of the ride, and drivers don’t expect additional tips. However, rounding up to the nearest 10,000 VND or leaving small change is seen as courteous, especially for good service. Some taxi companies, such as Mai Linh or Vinasun, have consistent pricing and reliable drivers. If you receive exceptional service, such as help with heavy luggage or efficient route navigation, a modest tip is a kind gesture. Keep in mind that cash is preferred since digital tipping options may not be available.
  • Standard tipping: Rounding up the fare.
  • Cash tips are most appreciated.
  • Helpful for exceptional service but not required.
Offering a tip is entirely at your discretion but shows gratitude in a way drivers understand.

Is it better to live in Hanoi or Da Nang?

The decision depends on lifestyle preferences, work, and climate. Hanoi, Vietnam’s capital, offers rich history, cultural landmarks, and a larger urban economy, making it ideal for career opportunities and experiencing northern traditions. However, its traffic congestion and cooler winters may deter some. Da Nang, a coastal city, provides a more relaxed lifestyle with clean beaches, modern infrastructure, and a warmer, tropical climate. It’s popular among expats seeking a balance between work and leisure, especially with its proximity to UNESCO sites like Hoi An and My Son.
  • Hanoi: Capital, cultural hub, cooler climate.
  • Da Nang: Coastal, relaxed, warmer weather.
  • Key factors: career, climate, lifestyle.
Both cities offer distinct advantages, so evaluate personal priorities when choosing.

  • Restaurants: Close by 9–10 PM.
