The pickup point was confusing. Two places have the same name in the town with only a «S» of difference

The bus driver was driving quite recklessly. He often overtook vehicles where it was not safe to do so. Often around corners with no view of the incoming vehicles. We know this is common driving in Vietnam but this was really quite dangerous and it should be discussed with the bus driver.

Bus arrived on time. No problems. We arrived later than expected but not by much only because everyone got dropped off at their accomodation which was greatly appreciated. The seat spacing was a bit small (vietnamese sized) so it was a little uncomfortable but it was only for a short trip.

The overall bustrip was not nice. We left to late, we arrived to late. There was no communication about the ferry. I had 0 legspace (and I am not a big person). The people from the office were very unfriendly when we checked in. And on top of all; my luggage came out completely wet.
