Hanoi to Hue City Center Destination Reviews

V
Great experience on my bus with Tan Quang Dung VIP Luxury 22 sleeper from Hanoi to Hue. Coach was clean and in good condition. Beds were comfortable. Had toilet though I didn't use it. Didn't discover any WiFi and none of the staff spoke english. I would recommend this bus although note that on this trip you are dropped off at a rest stop and taken in to Hue by taxi car. I didn't know this and was confused as to what was going on. Very good service and arrived early.

General, was nice. The bus could be better if the seat could manage. The seat only have 1 position (lay down), but if we want to be seated reading or other thing is not possible. Also my seat belt was not working. The rest was ok.

Staff were pleasant, though as I had leg in brace (injury) and struggled with bags, it was disappointing that no assistance was offered. The train itself was pleasant and easy travel experience.
