ما فئات الحافلات وأسعارها الخاصة بـ HTX Van Tai 277؟
سيعتمد سعر رحلتك بالحافلة على وجهة ودرجة تذكرتك. ضع في الحسبان أنه ليست كل فئات التذاكر متوفرة على طرق معينة، ولكن بالنسبة للرحلات الطويلة، هناك دائمًا مجموعة جيدة من الخيارات. اختر مدربًا للنوم لأفضل رحلة بين عشية وضحاها. عادة ما تكون حافلات النوم مجهزة بمراسي أو مقاعد مائلة ناعمة، وتحتوي على مرحاض على متن الطائرة. وقد تتضمن تذكرتك أيضًا امتيازات أخرى مثل الوجبات الخفيفة أو حتى وجبة غداء. يعد ركوب الحافلة الليلية فكرة جيدة أيضًا إذا كنت تريد التوفير في غرفتك بالفندق. غالبًا ما تكون الخدمة السريعة خلال النهار هي أفضل قيمة مقابل المال، حيث تتوقف أقل من الحافلات العادية أو القياسية وتسافر بشكل أسرع. في بعض الطرق، قد يكون من الضروري اختيار الفئة المناسبة، على سبيل المثال، قد تحتاج حافلة عادية أو حافلة من الدرجة الثانية إلى حوالي 6 ساعات لقطع المسافة التي تقطعها الدرجة الأولى أو الحافلة السريعة في غضون ساعتين!
إيجابيات وسلبيات السفر بالحافلات
مزايا السفر بالحافلات
عادة ما تفتخر الحافلات بأوسع شبكة من الوجهات المغطاة، حيث يسافرون إلى الأماكن التي لا يمكنك الوصول إليها بالطائرة أو حتى بالقطار
السفر بالحافلة يعد أمراً سهلاً - ليست هناك حاجة للوصول إلى محطة الحافلات في وقت مبكر، وعادة ما يكون تسجيل الوصول إجراء شكلي سريع للغاية مقابل السفر الجوي
تذاكر الحافلة ميسورة التكلفة. نعم، هناك خيارات مكلفة من الدرجة الأولى أو VIP ولكن هل لديك ميزانية، الحافلة هي وسيلة النقل الأولى التي يجب أن تفكر فيها
في نفس الوقت، هناك فئات مختلفة من الخدمة تناسب أي ميزانية. إذا كنت تبحث عن مستوى أعلى من الراحة، فإن الحافلات ستوفر لك الحماية أيضًا.
سلبيات السفر بالحافلات
يمكن أن تقع محطات الحافلات بين المدن خارج وسط المدينة في الضواحي. هذا يعني أنك ستحتاج إلى حساب الوقت والمال الإضافيين للوصول إلى هناك. قد يكلفك الوصول من محطة الحافلات في بعض الوجهات أكثر مما تتوقع لأنه لا يُسمح إلا لعدد محدود من شركات النقل بخدمة الطريق- وقد تتضخم الأسعار.
خلال عطلات نهاية الأسبوع المزدحمة أو الحافلات التي تخدم بعض الوجهات السياحية، قد ينفد الجدول الزمني وتتطلب الحجز المسبق.
في حين أن الحافلات لا تعتمد على الطقس مثل العبارات، يمكن أيضًا تأخير رحلات الحافلات أو إلغاؤها بسبب سوء الأحوال الجوية أو ظروف الطريق- ضع ذلك في الاعتبار عند السفر خلال مواسم معينة أو إلى وجهات معينة.

MARCEL Sفى المجمل رحلة جيدة جدا. لم أشهد أيًا من كل سلوك التنمر ضد الغربيين الموصوف في بعض المراجعات. فريق عمل طيب للغاية ولكن لا يستطيع التحدث باللغة الإنجليزية ، لذا فهو أكثر من اتصال قائم على الإيماءات :) فينتيان هانوي: وصل إلى الحدود حوالي الساعة 2.30 صباحًا ، وأخذ قسطًا من الراحة حتى تفتح الحدود ، ودفع إكرامية 10 آلاف كيبوب لموظفي لاو و 50 ألفًا Kip للموظفين الفيتناميين في الهجرة. كل شيء سار بشكل جيد بعد الحصول على eVisa مقدمًا. لا توجد تأشيرة عند الوصول. كان أحد الأشخاص لديه نقطة تفتيش حدودية خاطئة لدخول فيتنام في تأشيرة الدخول الإلكترونية الخاصة به ، لذلك دفع حوالي 2 مليون دونغ للموظفين الفيتناميين للدخول. لم أكن بحاجة إلى أي دونغ على الحدود ، يمكنني دفع كل شيء في كيب. كانت الحافلة مريحة ووصلنا فقط بتأخير من ساعة إلى ساعتين. من الصعب معرفة ما إذا كنت سأفعل ذلك مرة أخرى قبل الميلاد ، إنها رحلة طويلة جدًا في النهاية ولكن هذا ما تدفعه مقابل ما أفترضه. أحسنت!

Giulia Dلا بخيبة أمل على الإطلاق! سأجدد التجربة دون مشاكل. المقاعد مريحة في وضع الاستلقاء ، ويمر الوقت بسرعة بشرط تنزيل الأفلام أولاً على هاتفك لأنه لا يوجد wifi. لا يتحدث الموظفون اللغة الإنجليزية وليسوا مرحبين أو ودودين بشكل خاص ، لكنهم سيرشدونك خلال الإجراءات الحدودية. إنها فعالة ، فقط كن لطيفًا معهم! شقة صغيرة ، البطانيات لا رائحة طيبة جدا ، ولكن بالنسبة للسعر نحن لا نشكو. إنها ليست حافلة سياحية ، لذا لا أحد يخبرك بالمدة المتبقية أو متى ستتوقف ، لكن الحافلة تتوقف كثيرًا بما يكفي لتقرر النزول وتمديد ساقيك أو أخذ استراحة في الحمام. يتم إجراء محطتين لتناول العشاء والغداء ، ولكن في الأماكن التي هي بالتأكيد ليست فظيعة. يتم توفير المياه المعبأة في زجاجات ، يمكنك أن تطلب قدر ما تريد. باختصار ، أوصي بدون مشكلة: لا تتوقع حافلة استثنائية ، إنها ريفية ، لكنها تستحق ذلك مقابل السعر.

Ron Cكانت نوعية Sleeper Bus جيدة. كانت الخدمة عادية لأن الموظفين غير قادرين على التواصل باللغة الإنجليزية. لكن الرحلة استغرقت وقتا أطول مما كان متوقعا. تم إبلاغنا بالوصول قبل ساعة واحدة من موعد المغادرة في الساعة 1730 ، لكن الحافلة غادرت المحطة فقط في الساعة 1900. لست متأكدًا من سبب حدوث تأخير ولكن قيل لنا الانتظار في كل مرة سألنا فيها.

Matthias Kغادرت الحافلة بعد ساعة واحدة ، مما كان مخططا له في الأصل ، لكنهم قالوا لي بالفعل عند المنضدة. بدلاً من اختيار حافلة يوم السبت ، كانت بالتأكيد واحدة من الحافلات التي "أقل من توقعاتي". لا كهرباء ولا واي فاي ولا مراحيض ولا مكان للجلوس ولا مساحة للساقين. لحسن الحظ ، لم تكن الحافلة مزدحمة للغاية في البداية وفي النهاية ، بحيث يمكنك فعلاً أن تشعر بالراحة. كانت هناك عدة محطات في الطريق للطعام والمرحاض. استغرق المرور عبر الحدود أكثر من ساعتين. لكن في النهاية وصلت بعد 26.5 ساعة. نظرًا لأنني كنت السائح الغربي الوحيد ، فقد بدا لي أن جميع الضيوف الآخرين كانوا لطفاء حقًا ، بل وأظهروا لي مكانًا لتناول الطعام وما إلى ذلك.

Lim Zتأخر وصول الحافلة إلى هانوي مقارنة بتوقيت التذكرة ، ولكن كان متوقعًا بعد قراءة التعليقات. الوقت الفعلي للوصول حوالي الساعة 6 مساءً. ذهبت إلى محطة الحافلات مبكرًا للحصول على مقاعد جيدة. ذهبت إلى هناك مبكرًا بعض الشيء ، كان حوالي 430 مساءً على ما يرام. انطلقت الحافلات في وقت مبكر جدًا من المحطة حيث وصلنا إلى قسم الهجرة حوالي الساعة 2 صباحًا ، بينما ننتظر فتح مكتب الهجرة في الساعة 630 صباحًا. ربما يكون قد انطلق لاحقًا لتخفيف وقت انتظار السفر. كانت الهجرة في حالة من الفوضى حيث يتزاحم الناس للحصول على جوازات سفرهم أولاً. لحسن الحظ ، كان قائد الحافلة لدينا لطيفًا للتأكد من أننا نجتاز الهجرة معًا. بشكل عام كانت الحافلة لا بأس بها وليست سيئة للغاية إذا حصلت على مقاعد جيدة.

James TThis is NOT a safe way to travel. Starting with the worst, here is a list of what happened on our bus from Hanoi to Luang Prabang: 1. A young girl was sexually assaulted by a drunk man on the bus touching her legs and offering her money during the night, the drivers did nothing, 2. The bus broke down in the middle of nowhere in Laos, we were stranded for 10 hours with no updates on what was going on, nor would the drivers let us access our belongings or even board the bus, we have no food or water, imagine what that was like as it started to go darn 3. The drivers drank beer and smoked on the bus, 4. The drivers hit people on the legs for not taking off their shoes to board their filthy bus, 5. People’s bags were damaged during the ride due to being put on the roof in favour of cargo in the storage compartments - they laughed at the damage as they were taken off… need I say more? Don’t put yourself in danger to save a little bit of money, just book the flight instead. I never usually do reviews but this was the worst experience of my life, it took us 3 days to get to Luang Prabang under the dominion of a group of thugs who had total power over us whilst we had nothing to eat, drink nor even safety over our person nor possessions. Don’t incentivise this company so that they can do this to other people again please.

evelina FI know exactly what I booked - but I still put 2 star. I saved 3 500 000 by doing this trip and that is why I give it 2 stars. Make sure to have 50.000 for the stamp OUT OF CONUTRY and 10.000 Kep for the stamp in of the country. (But it’s good to bring extra in case they raise the “price” the day you arrive. )
The bus driver was super super rude to us over and over, and the end we just gave up trying to ask anything.
If you have some money saved I recommend you spending your money on a flight ticket instead to save you a headache and a bumpy ride.
But if you take this bus you will get a memory for life - and it’s not all that we are looking for ? Good luck!

Anano AIt was better that I expected. I've read all the reviews before and was expecting something worse. The bus left on time. It's was Wednesday so the bus didn't have a toilet or outlets to charge phones. We didn't experience racism, we were just sitting in front of the bus when they called us and we got on. The seats were pretty comfortable and sleapable. There were 2 seats together and then one - on the side, so couples could sleep next to each-other. The driver knew a few English words but even without it we could have basic communication about stops and border crossing. The driver was not very friendly, but it was okay. The second driver was more attentive and helped us to search for lost headphones. The first toilet stop was in 2-3 hours at approximately 9 PM and the drivers yellled "toilet" so it was easy to understand. I recommend taking this change because there were no toilet stops until 8AM when we reached the border. The toilets in Laos side of the border were manageable, no paper though so make sure to have it. Also, make sure you don't put on the clothes you don't want to get dirty, because the border crossing was muddy. We had passports and Vietnamese E-Visa so there were no problems crossing the border. At first we went to Laos border and they checked our e-visas. Then we walked like 3-4 minutes and got to the Vietnamese side, took bags from our bus and got also checked for our passports and e-visas as well as bags. No queue and no extra fee. After that, we walked again for 4-5 minutes and stopped at a covered area (like a bus stop) after the barrier, where we got picked by our bus. We didn't have to walk a lot at all. The whole proess took us 1-1.5 hours. We stopped to eat at 1:30-2PM (there was a toilet there) and then didn;t stop anymore. At 5PM, we echnaged busses because our bus had to be repaired and got a bus with 3 rows with separate beds. We got to Hanoi 1.5 hours later. The roads were a bit bumpy in Laos, but got better in Vietnam. But the driver honked very frequently in Vietnam (apparently, that's normal in Vietnam). Overall, it was pretty good for such a long drive. Nothing to be scared of.

Yael RThe sleeper bus itself was completely fine, though no toilets. The bus left 1:30 hours later than it was originally supposed to. Around 50 I’m away from Hanoi the bus had a technical problem and we waited 6 hours for a different bus, though we were only 6 passengers by this point and they could have took us sooner by cars. We ended up arriving in Hanoi at 10:30 am instead of 3 am.

Nathan DI took the bus on a Saturday from Hanoi to Vientiane, according to 12goasia, it's one of the days with better busses.
Bus was clean, staff friendly although they spoke almost 0 English.
Comfort will be lower if you're taller than 1m80.
In Laos there's a lot of road works and the ride gets bumpy.
It would be nice if their was clearer communication about where we would stop and for how long.
Overall quite comfortable, nothing to do with some horror stories that other travelers experienced.

Carolina GThis was the second time we took this route since the first time we arrived to the border and had to go back to Hanoi since we didn't know that it wasn't possible to get on-arrival visas to Laos anymore. We left on time from Hanoi and arrive almost at 9 pm to Luang Prabang. More than a formal transport for people, the bus was a goods delivery service.The bus stopped more than a dozen times to collect and deliver multiple items on the way, including more people with no tickets. All felt more like of it was a side business from corrupted drivers than something organized from the company.
There were few stops to go to proper toilets (specially for women) and to eat. The drivers smoked constantly inside the bus and the air conditioning damaged a couple of times.

Long HI don't feel very comfortable in the car. The place is quite narrow and the mattress is hard while moving for 12 to 14 hours, and the staff does not drink anything. The garage should install additional USB connector-type phone chargers like many other night runs because of the urgent need for communication. Especially, the staff are very friendly and enthusiastic to support customers, but if they improve their English further, it will be a plus for the journey.

Tomas MOk trip, as mentioned somewhere before asians got seated first, westerners last. Procedure on the borderline was as described on the website - hectic and little bit confusing. We paid small fee/bribe on both sites (10000 kip pp, we got receipt on Laos side), we had few stops on the way for food, toilet etc. Temperature inside bus was ok. Departure and arrival was roughly one hour later than stated, but this is normal in asia. Overall ok.

Maria-Luiza TВодители ужасные. Все передние места резервируют для своих и туристов на них не пускают. У половины сидений в автобусе сломаны спинки. По дороге постоянно останавливаются, чтобы брать грузы. Везли даже мотоцикл и живых куриц. Для обеда остановились у дорогого кафе. Мы пошли в соседнее, там было намного дешевле. В итоге ехали 25 часов

Grace HWe were pretty nervous about getting this bus after reading the very unnecessarily aggressive terms&conditions, but it really is fine BAR getting on at Vientiane.
When we arrived, an hour before our ticket time (as instructed) it would seem we were actually 2 hours early. After reading so much about locals snatching tickets and forcing you to pay again, we were pretty concerned when lots of apparent bus pushers started trying to grab ours and put our bags on their busses. Turns out this ticket is not for a specific bus but any of the many that are parked there. After much pushing and grabbing and some arguing between the bus guys (and absolutely NO letting go of our ticket) we had no choice but to assume the bus we eventually got on would take us to Hanoi.
Anyway once we got settled it was fine. The bus had no toilet (travelled on a Sunday) but we stopped every few hours. We stopped around 1am and everyone including the drivers went to sleep. Apparently because we were queued at the border ready for when it opened at 7am. Fully prepared for a chaotic border crossing we were actually very relieved to find that our bus guys and other locals were happy to point us clueless tourists in the right direction. In low season we were 2 of only 5 westerners we could see doing the crossing.
In conclusion, it’s fair to lower your expectations, but the Laos staff are very nice, as long as your not expecting any special treatment. Prepare for stress at Vientiane.

Nicholas ROne star for getting there. One star for staff being fine...in that they got us here. 12go tells you in the voucher (after you've booked) that certain days of the week have subpar busses. We had one of those. Would have been good info for 12go to share prebooking to earn the fee they charge. Left two hours late (standard in SE Asia) but that meant arriving in the dark at 8pm. Despite no assigned seats, westerners are directed to the worst seats and you have to accept it or argue back. Really only a good option if saving money. Skip 12go, they provide nothing, just book at the station.

Tom PThe journey is fine and reasonably comfortable.
But the level of completely blatant racism is just laughable. Asians are treated like people, westerners are treated like dirt.
Every Asian was allowed on the bus to choose a seat prior to departure. We (having been the very first to arrive) were made to wait until the very end and were constantly shouted at for no reason. In the UK, the staff on this trip would have been fired within days.

Emer MWell, you get what you pay for. It did say on the ticket don't expect much. But I thought it was fine. Staff don't speak English, but as long as you are nice and polite they are also nice and polite so no big deal. No toilet but they make plenty of stops, and I got the feeling that if you asked to stop to use a toilet that would be no problem. Towards the end of the journey, the air con started leaking hahaha was a bit crazy but all part of the fun. Yeah the border is a little hectic but everyone finds their way. It's not up to the bus driver to hold your hand. All in all I thought it was fine and would probably do it again.

Mariella RTo be honest even just sitting on a bus for 24h is not a 5 star experience in general. But a toilet and wifi would habe definitely make the time on the bus better. It is true - bus full of stuff like packages, ready-to-sell-tshirts and ohter things. You got your seat and that’s it - no wandering around as there is people (even staff) laying in the narrow walkway. We got brought to the passport-check-out in Vietnam at the border (btw. 1 USD) and then to the Laos border where it was a little chaotic. But well the bus waited for everyone (at least it seemed like it) and we made the it to Vientiane. Earplugs are a must.

David PBus left at 18:00 from Vientiane Southern Bus Station. As usual in Laos, it travelled quite slowly due to the numerous potholes and washouts in the road. The Bus made it into Nam Phao/Cau Treo Border post at 02:30, whereupon the driver, lined up in the growing queue of busses and turned off the engine (and therefore the AirCon). I was only just getting used to the various tonal snores of the various people when I dropped off myself. The bus driver and his offsider were helpful, though they didn't speak any English, giving me the nod when to get off the bus and where they would pick me up from. Get off at the Lao side, get stamped, walk about 1km to the Vietnam side, get your passport stamped, hopefully you have an e-visa and meet the bus. You have to then take your luggage off the bus and send it through the luggage scanner, collect it and wait while the border guards give the bus the once over. After they have, put your luggage back on and hi-ho away we go to Hanoi Nuoc Ngam Station. Bus was comfortable,in that I fell asleep a number of times. The AirCon is Arctic. They do give you a pillow and blanket, which is helpful, but wear thick socks and rug up. You HAVE to remove your shoes to get on the bus. They lay a strip of mattress on the aisle, so passengers can really stretch out and when you get off the bus, especially to the toilets, the ground is just plain filthy and you don't want to bring that back. They do provide you with slippers for when you get off the bus. However, either bring your own or buy some at Vientiane Southern Bus Station, which is what I did. All in all a good experience, The driver was exceptional as a driver, managing to avoid most of the potholes and just keeping the bus journey really smooth. Caught the Wednesday bus (with no on-board toilet or WiFi), rest stops about every 2 hours. Got into Hanoi Nuoc Ngam Station at 18:00.

Collin TThis really gives me PTSD. Would highly recommend against anyone doing this trip. Its not for the faint of heart. 24 hours on a bus is no joke. The place is quite dirty, pillows feel a bit damp so you really aren’t sure what was on it before you. Also the toilet onboard is really smelly and damp too. You can’t wear shoes onboard so I’m not sure how you’re supposed to use the toilet without dirtying your feet with urine and fecal matter. Also the drivers and assistants weren’t friendly to foreigners at all and were actually quite hostile. If you are traveling alone, I would definitely recommend you reconsider because they will bully you. Just don’t do this.

Joshua POur trip wasn't as bad as other reviews I have read. The bus was loaded with random packages, and was cramped, but it didn't bother me and my girlfriend too much. The guys on the bus were nice enough, and tried to be helpful at the border (pointing in a general direction, but he did actually take us to the first passport gate).
The only thing that would help is if they spoke even very basic English. But then again I suppose we could learn very basic Vietnamese.
Yes, it was long, but we tried to sleep most of the way and succeeded. Ear plugs are a MUST.
I asked for the toilet and had to wait another 90 minutes for what was a planned stop anyway. No wifi, toilet, so be prepared to be dehydrated for risk of going to the toilet on yourself.

Cassian FThe trip started badly when I got to the Hanoi Bus Station and counter 57, I kept trying to give my voucher in exchange for ticket as I was instructed to do. I was told nothing and kept getting sent to sit down. It got to 5 minutes until the bus (time written on my 12goAsia booking) was due to leave until someone told me it was due to leave an hour later and then I was asked to pay for my ticket, I had to repeat again and again I had already paid and argue with the person in charge before I got my ticket. I found my bus and it was ok, nothing special or terrible. Our bus journey took 30 hrs in total (i timed it out of curiousity), we had a few stops but the length of time was mostly due to the deliveries being loaded on the bus. We stopped very often in Vietnam to pick them up and a lot in Laos to drop them off. Overall not as bad as I had thought and i came well prepared with lots of films. Most of those of us travelling slept ok, at one point the bus turned on the radio for us all to hear quite late in on the 2nd night at a deafening volume which was not so great so i suggest earplugs. Expect very little and you cannot be disappointed.

Frederick FBus was delayed by 3 hours without explanation. The staff were very cold and rude to the western tourists not giving us information at any point. Leg room was poor and had no usb ports

Goh DInstructions on the booking voucher was to go to counter 3 at the bus station to exchange for a boarding pass. But no one was at the counter (it was empty, and didn't look like the counter was in operation). Checked with a couple of other counters (other companies) and was finally directed to go straight to the bus bay. By sheer luck, met a staff (who turned out to me the driver) who spoke both English and Mandarin, and he helped me to settle everything. And since I was the only foreigner on board the bus that day, he also took care of me during the journey especially at the border crossing, telling what to do since the locals got to stay on the bus while I had to go through immigration myself. A big thank you to him (I didn't manage to get his name). Other staff didn't speak English but could see they were trying to help as well. The bus ride was decent. Overall an okay experience, less the boarding pass issue at the bus station.

Jennyfer PThe staff has been very rude,they don't speak ONE word of English and they don't care about you, they just about words in their language and treat you bad when you try to ask something. The bus has no WiFi and no toilet,the air conditioning was so high that u need a blanket to stay,they put loud Vietnamese music for almost all night so it was not possible to sleep, and they drive so fast the you cannot lay down. At the border they didn't explain us what we should do and ask us one dollar to Stan our passports (I don't know if it was a real fee or a fake one). Very hard and uncomfortable trip

Ebonee JMy experience was better than most stories that I've heard but still an interesting one to tell my friends. Be prepared for bugs, VERY rude bus attendents (segregated the foreigners from the laos obly gave us wifi to shut us up but refused water and snacks, yelled and pushed us), be on your toes at immigration otherwise you bus will just leave without you and laugh ( almost happened to the other foreign couple sitting next to us. Only had wifi til Laos border but there was a toilet on board and blankets and very loud Laos music through the speakers by 9am the next day :)

Lee XThe bus I took was a replacement service so I'm not sure how helpful my review can be. The scheduled bus caught fire so I was offered a replacement bus that promised arrival in 14hr instead of the usual 24hr. Actual journey took 20hr so I just wish that the promised arrival time was more realistic as some of us make changes to our accommodation bookings only to find it gone to waste. The bus we were on seemed to have just completed a trip so it was pretty messy and smelly. We had to switch buses some distance after the border so we waited in a freezing cold restaurant for 2-3hr without any information. In terms of service the staff of 12Go whom I communicated with (Hong Nguyen) was quite helpful and prompt with replies but I guess there are just some things that are out of their control.

Mr LSaid 24 hour and some reviews online said it could be worse. My experience was good. Only took 22hr. Be aware the visa points have no ATM and won't accept card. Carry cash. I had to borrow of the driver and I was a little embarrassed. All in all, bus was comfortable enough and if you don't want to pay the extra for the flight it's a reasonable option. :-)

Poppy FConsidering this is meant to be 'the journey from hell' we had a good journey. Comfy bus seats. We managed to get the back 3 seats between 2 of us because it was practically empty. Only negative is some of the staff was so rude to us. Hurrying us along at immigration as if we had any control over the ridiculously slow process!
