Driver was 30 minutes late. Ordered me to move seats to let other people sit in the spot. Didn’t know where he had to drop people off. Stopped multiple times, once for even getting something from a pharmacy?? I was the last one to get off the bus. Supposed to arrive at 8:30, arrived at 9:30. At least he dropped me off where he was supposed to.

Booked for 2pm but they asked us via whatsapp to go in the bus of 1pm without changing the ticket. We waited but the bus driver took 2 people only (not us) from the departer point. Finally he came back for us after we contacted the company… bit stressful but funny

From Hue to Hoi An. A bit of a bumpy ride and we made loads of stops along the way. It was OK for the short journey. We arrived a bit late but weather was bad so that’s ok.
