Hoi An to Hue Destination Reviews

We got from A to B on time. However, the first part of our trip (+/- 45 minutes) was squeezed in the back of a normal car, while we payed for luxury minibus seats for the entire trip. Next, there was no hotel pick-up, which do was indicated during the booking process. However, it got cancelled the evening before. Lastly, there were designated seats for other passengers, while we could not book these, that is just a bit weird.

Well we booked a limousine. But apparently that had broken down. So they sent a car instead. Which was fine. We shared the car with another couple and that was fine too. Driver was a very good driver.

It was supposed to be a direct minivan limousine from Hoi An to Hue departing at 10:00 but they were late (they did not contact me to inform me). At 10:30 a car arrived, which was a bit of a surprise. Two other passengers and I got into the car which had the boot full of boxes and frozen food (only 1 luggage could fit in it). Two sitting at the back with the big luggages in the middle and myself in the front seat. Driver spent the first half an hour checking more his phone than the road, making the trip quite uncomfortable. Surprise surprise, in Da Nang we were eventually transferred to a minivan. The next driver was absolutely out of control, speeding recklessly, not caring about possible accidents and the wellbeing of the passengers or other people alike (he clearly needed to make up on lost time from the beginning of the trip) I know it is Vietnam, but after 3 months around south east asia this was by far the worse trip i had.
