Ha Giang to Sapa Destination Reviews
BP
Brett PBus was older and seats needed repair, seatbelts not working etc. Driver was on the phone the entire time, often texting and on very windy, wet roads made for an uncomfortable trip.

Amelie Bus was comfortable but the driver was driving fast and dangerously, especially considering the mountain roads. However, the driver did a lot of quick stops to pick up or drop off bags along the way, which seems a bit suspicious.
Last but not least, from 9h to 15h30, we only had one stop at 11h30 and that was it. 4h without toilet stop is honestly not OK. So yeah, the bus is nice but this transfer was by far the worst I had in Vietnam since I got here a month ago!

Rebecca CIt’s just really windy roads, and the van is small so everyone’s bags were piled up in the aisle, so there’s no leg room. It was a long, nauseous drive.

Russell PLots of suitcases filled the walkways and each time we stopped we had to remove them so we could get out - a little bit small but we arrived at the destination in good time and there was enough stops to make us comfortable

Henderik They picked us up almost 1 hour too late. And i booked a VIP sleeperbus and expected a bus with 22 cabins. This looked like a regular sleeperbus with 34 cabines. We arrived one and a half hour later then expected.
