Ha Long to Tam Coc Destination Reviews

Sharon A

The bus was nearly 1.5 hrs late arriving, no explanation, we then got on and there were people sleeping on the floor in the aisles, no toilet stops announced and dropped us off 40 mins outside of Halong without explanation though a mini bus did come to pick us up a few minutes later. The worst bus journey we had in Vietnam
