Ho Chi Minh City to Nha Trang Destination Reviews

LK
Laura K
The experience was exciting, the bus was clean, and we even arrived at our destination an hour early. Unfortunately, communication with the bus company ends as soon as we board the bus. After that, no one says anything. The bus stops, but no one tells us how long or why. So we never know when we can get off to go to the toilet, for example. When the bus stopped outside Nha Trang an hour early, we wondered, are we there? Do we have to get off? Shortly afterwards, a smaller bus arrived to take us and the other passengers into the city to the designated drop-off point. All in all, the journey was fine, I just would have liked an announcement telling us which stop we were at.

Punctual, clean, enough space - nothing to complain about! The only thing: We arrived a bit earlier.

Beyond excellent. I was running late due to HCM traffic, messaged through whatts app and they held the mini bus for 15mins. Quality. I've done a 22hr bus journey in India. The difference was Rolls Royce V 3 legged Elephant.

12GO was a a professional and easy travel experience overall. The service was good and everyone was helpful and look after their customers with care from beginning to end and able to explain in english any questions. The only improvement would be communicating expected break and meal stops as these were unclear for an all day bus trip. The stop for a meal had limited selection of food. Five Stars ***** overall!

The company advertises a night bus with a trip long to 9h. However, it took only 4h. When we buy a night bus, we expect to have a night long of sleep and save on hotel; however having the trip on only 4h, we don't manage to sleep enough and get too early on the final destination. The driver should go slowly (and make a long stop in the middle if needed) to give the customers the 9h (or 7h/8h) trip. In a night bus, nobody wants and expects to get sonner in the final destinal, but have a good night of sleeping.

Dropped off at different location than specified. Took about 10 hours in total , driver was good though no complaints. We were dropped off much later than the time originally given . Total time from hcmc to nha Trang 10 hours , and because it dropped us off not at the specified place had to get another 25min taxi . I think the driver was great , but the rest was just meh won’t be using 12go or any other 3rd party app to book ever again .

No words. Just compare what my wife and I were supposed to get (for an extra price paid for a 24-cabin bus vs. a regular 34-cabin bus) and what we got. Stay away from this company at all costs.
