Hue to Hoi An Destination Reviews

In general really great. Just one transfer did not work out so well as operator missed our names on the passenger list. So we had to wait 2 more hours for the next transfer. These things can happen. It was not too bad as we were not on time pressure.

The journey itself was fine. We booked the night before and received immediate confirmation. The next morning, I received a message on WhatsApp saying that the journey was fully booked and that we should depart an hour earlier.

Bus was clean and comfortable. However, the bus was late and didn’t stop for restrooms, as it was planned. Also, they dropped us in another location than where they were supposed to, so we had to take a Grab to get to our homestay. OK experience overall.

The bus was overbooked, with people sitting in the corridors, also with parcels in the middle, it wasn't easy to move inside the bus. I had to be in a shared cabin with other people and was separated from my partner, we were not expecting this service. Otherwise it was on time and the driver was nice.

We were being shouted at, opening curtains and shouting for information of our tickets. We were left in random petrol station. Luggage thrown at us and bus left quickly. No idea we were an hour drive outside Ho Chi Minh City. Being harrased by fake taxis at petrol station.

Unfortunately, the bus was delayed, but the ride overall was quite comfortable. The air conditioning was too cold for me personally.
