Sapa to Cao Bang Destination Reviews
CV
Caroline VThe Buses were very comfortable and clean! The second busdriver though was HORRIBLE! He was so rude and screamed whenever someone wanted to go to the toilet and just send them back to the Bus! So there was even someone on the Bus peeing their pants, that’s unbelievable actually !

Marije VNot happy with sleeperbus comfort and/ or van.
Staff was not very friendly, except the guy helping us in Sapa ssb station.
The drop off in Cao Bang was at the busstation not at the indicated place (where we booked our hostel nearby!!) and therefore we had to take a taxi (no more mobile network/ data) to the hostel.

Lukasz Our bags were put into the bus next to some fish or something. They were wet and smelly. We were angry as hell. We were pretty unaware where we change the bus. Employes on the bus didnt know even one word in English. Even "toilet" or "bus change".
2 stars. Because we got to our destination

Steven MMy driver called An, was very accommodating! I was early but he adjusted pick up time to stop me waiting! He spoke excellent English and I was really comfortable and wanted to talk with him the whole journey. His driving was fantastic as roads were challenging, I never felt not safe during the whole journey. He was warm and kind and I really would recommend his service above all others I have had so far! I felt a real connection to An and want to book him for more journeys here! His vehicle was super luxury and nothing was to much trouble for him! He is part of my memories of Vietnam now and I sincerely hope we stay in touch as I will never forget him
