Hue to Phong Nha Destination Reviews

I've now travelled twice with this company and although the buses themselves aren't too bad (they're too small for me personally and I did find a large insect in the first one) the biggest issue is how aggressive the drivers are with the passengers. Things I have witnessed or experienced - turning up 2.5 hours early at 04:30am not the planned 07:00am - turning up 2 hours late with very short notice of the change of arrival time - shouting very loudly at passengers who want to go to the bathroom - hitting me for not taking my shoes off quick enough when getting on the bus - shouting and playing loud videos throughout the whole nighttime journey I've taken a lot of busses in South East Asia and the drivers for this company are by far the worse.

Be prepared for delays and being notified a few minutes before the expected departure time.

Bus left exactly on time, arrived 1 hour later than the planning. But we stopped for 30 minutes so you could order some dinner, and go to the restroom. There was a toilet on board. Comfortable chairs

It left and arrived very late. Both the "station" person and the listing gave very incorrect information about how many times the bus would stop for food/bathroom. They said three times, he only speed once at a place with "hole in the floor" type bathroom. The "sleeper" space was very comfortable, but I can't imagine being able to sleep with how loud the driver was talking (I was right behind him).

Smooth ride, comfy seats. Compared to the bus I'm on now which feels like I'm on a rollercoaster.

I originally booked a later bus, which was then already full (why could I book it then?), so I was asked to come to an earlier connection. In my case very okay, so no problem :)

They made my boyfriend move into a bed that was half the size so his knees were at his chest, the entire bus couldn’t charge phones, the toilet was labeled as occupied and locked for the majority of the bus so nobody could use it - worst of all there was loud music playing the entire time which pierced through my headphones so i couldn’t sleep. the rest stop was good and one of the staff on board was very kind.

The driver was really rude.

Many people got emails saying the bus would be delayed and then when a bus arrived there were arguments and confusion with the workers about who could get on the bus and who couldn’t. It was a confusing and annoying experience
