Hue to Phong Nha Destination Reviews

Very disappointing experience with our bus from Huế to Phong Nha. We had to be at the pickup point 30 minutes early, but the bus was already about 1.5 hours late, so we waited around 2 hours before it even arrived. After boarding, the bus drove around Huế for about another hour to pick up more passengers and then returned to almost the same starting point again. In the end, the journey effectively took up our time from around 14:30 until 22:00, meaning we lost almost the entire afternoon and evening and could no longer do the activities we had planned in Phong Nha or even properly organize dinner. The condition of the bus was also very poor: it smelled bad, there were stains everywhere, and there was even a dirty sock on one of the beds. My partner’s seat/bed had no functioning seat belt, which is a serious safety concern. My own seat could not be adjusted properly, and the Wi-Fi and charging socket also did not work. Overall, this was not just a minor delay but a combination of extreme delay, poor organization, bad hygiene, defective equipment and a safety issue. Considering the price and the service advertised, this was completely unacceptable. We requested a full refund for both tickets and believe additional compensation would also be justified. But we never git an answer…

Glad we made it. 4 hours late, stopped so often to pick up cargo. Our 20min toilet stop lasted 45mins - despite already being very behind schedule. No ticket required to get on. Just seemed very chaotic and unorganised. Fine if you have all the time in the world. Only bonus was we somehow got a 22 Cabin when we booked a 32 Sleeper!

Operator changed location (they moved their office) but we didn’t get notice until night before. We were asked to arrive very early like 90 minutes early and it felt like they put us on an earlier time bus but one with more stops so later arrival time. Bus said it had WiFi but we couldn’t find it by name. One of our cabins had working usb power but our other cabin did not. All of those were minor inconveniences but is the reason for not 5 star review. Otherwise bus was clean, cabins were very comfortable, bus driver had great communication, and we enjoyed our overall experience.
