Hanoi to Cao Bang Destination Reviews

CS
Chana S
It was an absolutely horrible journey. They combined all the early limousine departures just to fill up one limousine, even though that was not the time we booked. As a result, we arrived in Cao Bang extremely late. They also lied to us about the reasons for changing our departure time and gave us completely misleading information. I strongly, strongly recommend avoiding this company. I would not use their service again and definitely do not recommend them.

Ok ride, left on time after some changes were sent out but then amended again, comfy bus with seat belts etc. Two stops, friendly driver and arrived later than predicted but ok. Crazy driving, overtook every other vehicle and sometimes on blind bends but we arrived in one piece!

Clear pickup instructions via WhatsApp with vehicle plate number however pickup time given was 30mins later than time originally booked but this which wasn’t an issue for us. Van arrived on time, clean, comfortable with working aircon, some seats had working usb/massage, some didn’t. Arrival time to destination was later than stated (1.5hrs) there heavy traffic leaving Hanoi and additional pickup from airport so factor this in. Stopped twice for toilet break and dinner stop. Driver drove safely for Vietnamese standards and dropped directly at our accomodation which was appreciated.

The van was old and the interior was broken and a bit dirty. The driver was friendly and stopped for 2 rest breaks. The driver took us directly to our accommodation which was good. Our original booking time was changed to an hour later.
