Hoi An to Phong Nha Destination Reviews

A
The company wasn’t Green Trips but the bus was always Queen Cafe Open Bus. Bus from Hoi An to Phong Nha, departure at 1.30pm on the Limousine bus, after 3 hours it stops in Hue, they let us off and put us on a normal sleeper bus... even tho I paid for the limousine. We arrive at 10pm. Overall disappointed, also the first part on the limousine wasn’t that great, the seat was uncomfortable and it was full of ants.

KP
bag got soaked underneath the bus. also had to change busses randomly onto a new one, where they oversold the seats so people had to sleep in the aisles. the new bus was also very short, aka anyone over 5’6 would have to bend their legs. ALSO the driver was rude, dismissing people asking simple questions like when our bathroom break would be.
