What are the Bus Classes & Prices of King Express Bus?
The price of your bus trip will depend both on the destination and the class of your ticket. Note that not all ticket classes are available on certain routes yet for longer trips there is almost always a good choice of options. Opt for a sleeper coach for the most convenient overnight trip. Sleeper buses are usually equipped with berths or soft reclining seats, feature an onboard toilet and your ticket may also include other perks like snacks or even a lunch. Taking a night bus is also a good idea if you want to save on your hotel room. During the day an express service is often the best value for money as it makes less stops than an ordinary or standard class bus and travels faster. On some routes it may be crucial to choose the right class as, say, an ordinary or second class bus may need some 6 hours to cover the distance the first class or express bus travels in two hours!
Pros & Cons of Bus Travel
Pros of Bus Travel
-
Buses usually boast the widest network of destinations covered. They travel to the places you cannot get to by plane or even by train
-
Travelling by bus is easy – there is no need to arrive to the bus terminal much in advance, and the check-in is usually a very fast formality opposite to air travel
-
Bus tickets are very affordable. Yes, there are costly first class or VIP options but is you are on a budget, bus is the first means of transportation you have to think about
-
At the same time, there are different classes of service to suit any budget. If you are after a higher level of comfort, buses get you covered, too.
Cons of Bus Travel
-
Intercity bus terminals can be located outside the city centre in the outskirts. It means you will need to calculate extra time and money to get there. In certain destinations getting from the bus terminal can cost you more than you would expect because only a limited number of transportation companies is allowed to serve the route – and prices may be inflated.
-
During busy weekends or high season buses serving some tourist destinations may run out of schedule and require advanced booking.
-
While buses are not as weather dependent as ferries, bus trips can also be delayed or cancelled due to bad weather or road conditions – keep it in mind if travelling during certain seasons or to certain destinations.

The pickup place was not well labeled- no address was given and the name on the confirmation isn’t what is printed on the building.
The bus was around an hour late for pickup and then stopped for nearly another hour after pickup, the seats were terribly uncomfortable and my spot was especially noisy.
I was not impressed! I will not travel that way again.

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!

On Time, we received messages on Whatsapp to tells us all the informations we needed like the pick up point and the schedule. So all good, just one thing is that in Hanoi the street ares small so you have to be really on time to take the bus because it just drop you and go.
Also for this travel, they drop people off one by one at their cruise agency, so no need to walk, that's great! Bottle of water provided on this trip and a stop where you can do shopping.

I felt like I paid for a standard service but got a VIP upgrade, as the bed was much more spacious and comfortable this time. The drivers were polite and drove carefully, and we arrived well ahead of schedule. The restroom, though small, was clean.

This provider was excellent. I was contacted by them and they picked me up closer to my hotel, which was a big further from the city center.
The bus was very late due to a big traffic jam.

Bus Limousine, King Express Bus, Apr 28, 2026
Was very confusing on where to get picked up from and then I had two different drivers trying to contact me and give me different instructions. Then we had to change buses into a worse bus after I paid for the premium seats in a limousine. The seats were pretty uncomfortable and my arm rest was broken. Disappointed since I paid extra for good seats and got stuck on a crap bus. Other than that it was an alright trip.

We waited 1h for the driver to have his 3 ice creams, 2 coffees just to stop 5 min after to fil l the tank. The bus is very filthy and old. The bathroom stank of urine, everyone was going in there without slippers and stepping in the filth just to drag it across the bus. My journey was from Hanoi to Danang, they woke us up by screaming at us at 7AM in Hue, they made us change buses, carry our luggage all by screaming and shouting at us. This company is a total joke. Staff is very rude, they don't speak english they just shout and point to things. Book with any other operator if you have some self respect

The bus was about half an hour late and then we stopped for half an hour at a silk and bamboo fabric operator where we had to sit through a 25-minute infomercial on the amazing qualities of bamboo fabrics. Please, just get us to Hanoi. I would pay more for a guarantee that we don't stop for a sales pitch

Don’t book this, I’m 5’3 and I barely fit, the width is so narrow you have no space, it wasn’t like the images at all, I was told I was booking the vip one (I spent £25) which is one I’ve been on before and was very lovely but this was nothing like it. The staff were rude and started driving the minute I got through the doors so I fell. Also you don’t get a set seat so have to scramble to find one whilst the bus is moving. Not to mention it was 1 hr later than it said it would be so I was waiting an hour and a half, since it said to get there 30 mins before, on the side of the road whilst buses were continuously going past and without knowing the number plate of the bus as I was never told, so that was quite stressful especially since it was 9pm. The bus clearly hadn’t been cleaned so there was crumbs everywhere.

The bus station was chaotic and dirty. The sleeper bus was comfortable for the 45 minute ride. Took a quick nap during the ride. Arrived at destination safe.

Overall everything went well, the driver was on time and drived with caution. We could sleep without trouble for most of the trip. There was just a long stop at the very beginning to load in a scooter which resulted in some luggages moved in the cabin.

The driver was so kind. Another traveller left her phone charging at the station. The driver called dispatch, we waiting on the side of the road, and a motorcycle delivered her phone within 20 minutes. He spoke good english and was patient.

This was a really good bus service, there were numerous wee stops a long the way and a slightly longer one to get food. Of course the food is slightly more pricey at the bus stops. The driver was safe and the sleeper was comfortable. Really nice views along the way too!

12go shows reservation with King Express but bus that picked us up was Queen Cafe. The bus was disgusting. Dirty and in need of repairs. Most of the recliners were stuck in only one position, had to share outlets and they didn’t all work. Didn’t see any outlets for middle row. Only curtains on the windows. None for the other side of seats. So middle row had no curtains at all. Bathroom smelled really strong of piss. Seats weren’t very comfortable.

From the Information hoben before booking, you couldn’t tell, that you have to change vehicles twice (once in Hanoi and once in Ninh Binh). But over all I’m happy with the Trip. The Main Bus was very comfortable.

The bus wasn’t as luxury as pictured, saw a nice leather bed with curtains and got one with holes in it and completely open. The bus had a toilet which meant they made less regular toilet breaks, which some people may like. We kept making stops at post offices and a peculiar package was on the bed in front the whole time. We also were stopped for about an hour just on the side of a busy road at one point which kind of freaked me out. Every time I got somewhat comfy and almost to sleep the driver beeped his horn about ten times just to nudge me back up. +2 stars for getting me from a to b safely and giving me some stories x

We booked the bus from Halong Bay to Hanoi. The voucher stated that we had to meet the bus at the meeting point in the International Harbour in Halong Bay and that we would be dropped off in the Old Quarter in Hanoi. Therefore we expected to have to get a cab for the short ride at either end to the meeting points. On the morning our booking, the driver rang to ask where we wanted picking up and we were subsequently collected from our hotel and dropped off at our hotel at the other end. This was excellent service and a pleasant surprise, especially considering the very low cost.

Bus VIP 32 Sleeper, King Express Bus, Feb 12, 2026
I was at the pickup point on time, yet the bus driver called me angrily asking where I am and saying I should immediately rush to the bus. Turns out he was not coming to the bus station, but was parking down the road of the bus station. So he was in the wrong place, yet he was calling me angrily.
I did spend a little more money on the ticket to get a better and more comfortable bus. The bus didn’t look anything like on the ticket.
Also, we arrived at the destination 2 hours early so that I had to be there in the middle of the night.
Overall everything would be fine, but the bus drivers are one of the rudest people I’ve met. Definitely didn’t expect that in a country where all the other people are so kind and helpful. It’s a shame that the bus organizations dull the experience of Vietnam travelers!

Busstation was actually quite hard to find. People just took to much time to get out of the bus, so we got delayed. For 1 hours trip, taxi is the better option. Also... Small areas for people 175 cm and taller.
