The bus itself looked brand new, cabin was clean and modern. Bus arrived 30 mins late which wasn’t too bad. However, the driver speeds making every bump in the road and every turn throwing you side to side a guarantee to keep you up the entire time, I only managed to sleep about 15 minutes max. They also kept opening up the cabin curtain and then closing it. So, it’s a way to get you from A to B, but do not rely on getting any sleep.

The bus was late, and there was no way to charge a phone or wifi in the bus, but otherwise, the travel went well, we had a bathroom stop and they provided blanket and water 🙂

Driver was braking and honking quite often, which made it a bit hard to sleep. Bus was okay, the drivers were really nice. Sadly, the cabins weren't cleaned between people. Overall totally okay.

So randomly as part of the bus trip we had to get all four tires changed which took like an hour extra. We got no information of this at any point. There was no toilet on the bus and there were only two official stops and the first one was after 30 minutes.

The bus itself was fabulous- large cabin space and very comfortable. What did not go nicely was a late departure, and I guess due to that the bus driver decided to not make ANY stops along the way to try and keep to his scheduled time for the end destination. This should not be allowed, at the very least - communicate this ‘no stops’ with your passengers. If I had known, I could have eaten before the trip. This is the first bus trip of length over the last 3 months of travelling that a bus has not had at least ONE stop.

Dirty seats with food all over. Language on the first 4 seats because there is no space where the luggage should be. Unorganized blankets and pickup. Over all a bad experience for a vip bus, and an expensive one.

At first the Pickup point we should go to don’t exsist anymore, but nobody gave is this information! We had to call the SAPA discovery Hotline and they said we must go to the bus terminal that was about 2km from the pick up point we went to. There was the bus. The ride was okay, no water as usual. permanent honking, but thats normal in Vietnam. We arrived almost one hour earlier but at another place in town then we should arrive.

I unfortunately slept through the stop off for a toilet break and when I woke I had 2 hours to wait until the next stop. The bus stopped and allowed a Vietnamese lady to go to the toilet, so I asked if I could go also. I was not allowed by the driver and shouted at. A German girl stood behind me and also asked, he shouted “no not now” again. I asked how long, he replied “one” meaning 1 hour. When we had nearly reached the next stop- I was on the verge of peeing myself and crying because of the pain.
