Ninh Binh to Da Nang Destination Reviews

I had to sit in the back, where the wheels are, for 10 hours, so I couldn’t lean back. Later on, they stop the bus at 5 am and they said we have to wait for an hour for another bus. So instead of arriving at 7, we ended up arriving at 9:30

Wonderful experience, but set your expectations accordingly! Train was 4 hours late (apparently hit a car on a crossing, and I’m sure there was still a bumper off a car hanging on the train!) but you have to be patient as this isn’t like taking a train in Japan. Sleeper was comfy and clean but can get noisy, but overall it’s a wonderful way to see the beautiful Vietnamese countryside. If you’ve got the time do it

Comfortable bus with a toilet onboard. A little warm at times during the night for me, but overall very comfortable with spacious bunks.

Unfortunately, our experience this time was disappointing. In the past, we booked with a different bus agency from Hà Giang to Ninh Bình and everything was perfect and exactly as described regarding the buses and services provided. This time, however, the experience was very different. First, the company advertised a direct bus from Ninh Bình to Đà Nẵng, but in the end we had to change a total of three buses to reach our destination. Second, I specifically booked a bus with a toilet, but upon arrival we were informed that the bus did not have one. On top of that, there was only one stop for passengers to use the toilet during the entire trip, while the bus made multiple additional stops just to deliver packages. Finally, the driver was driving extremely recklessly, as if he was racing, constantly using the horn and making it impossible for us to sleep during the journey. Overall, it was a very uncomfortable and frustrating experience.
