Great journey, drop off the Hue was actually their central office rather than the train station as booked but this suited me better anyway. From Hoi A there was a minivan transfer to their main office before getting onto the main coach so maybe this would have happened in Hue too but I didn’t need it so don’t know.

There is 2 no 134 on the street and we were dropped off at the wrong address. Frantically trying to find the right pick up everyone was directing us the wrong way

We were supposed to arrive at 9am but were delayed until 10:30am - not because of traffic but because we sat in a car park in Hoi A for an hour while the staff sat on their phones. Due to us being so late, I was late to my appointment eventhough I allowed plenty of time. Additionally, the toilet was blocked meaning when I went to the WC my socks got drenched in urine. When I raised this to the staff, they approached this as if I’d caused an inconvenience. I had to buy new socks for the day when I arrived in Hue, costing 200 Dong.
