Hanoi to Vientiane Southern Bus Station Destination Reviews
EF
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!

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.

T NI knew it would take a long time and I understood that there would be no support for entering and exiting the country, so the fee was equivalent.

Oscar NThis company just orders you a taxi to a bus station, where you wait 2 hrs for a different bus, which is 200k dong cheaper if you just bought the bus ticket from them... Also not sure why it says it's a 12 hr trip as the trio takes more like 24-26 hrs
