Ho Chi Minh City to Lam Dong Destination Reviews

MH
The bus was over 2 hours late and the staff didn't bother to give me updates while waiting
Bus VIP 36, Techbus VN JSC (Techbus Vietnam Joint stock company), Aug 5, 2023

The ride was a lot longer than expected. Leaving at 2pm we were planning to be in Da Lat at almost 8pm. We arrived at 10:30pm! The driving picked us up on time, but then we went around HCM City for 2 more hours searching for other customers. It was very annoying. Nowhere on the booking allowed us to choose seats, so when we arrived we were shoved into the front with the driver. This was very uncomfortable for us. When we stopped for the toilet and some snack, the driver took about an hour to eat his food and chat with his friend. No important deadline. Probably won't use this service again.
