Overall, pretty good. Somewhat confusing when arriving at the pick up point. But ride was comfortable and we made it to our destination.

After all the negative Reviews I was curious how Things would be. But nothing to complain about: Start and Stop Cities of the Bus Trip exactly like I've booked, PDF with location where exactly the Bus Station is, WhatsApp Contact to offer additional Service If needed. On top of that we had the oppotunity to take one bus earlier since we arrived a bit to early at the Busstation.

Booked an 11 seater but ended up on a large bus. Bus was great and comfortable so no issues there but the driver aggressively honked the horn loudly the whole way to make people move out of the way. Bus had no wifi and the usb charging ports didn’t work

For a 2 hours trip we needed 1 taxi before the limousine and 1 after. After the first taxi we had to wait during 30 minutes for the Limousine. The last taxi was not really safe with the seats broken. For the price (from a local point of view) we should expect a better service I believe The limousine itself was ok

We booked what we thought was going to be with a bus load of other people. What we got was a private transfer in a very very comfortable bus. Very comfortable journey and was enjoyable the whole way to Tam Voc
