Hue to Ninh Binh sleeper bus. Clean, new bus with well organised staff. Somehow the bus completed a 8 hour car journey in 7 hours, including 2 stops overnight….not sure how this is possible especially in a bus, but we were astonished when we were woken up at our stop, 30 minutes ahead of schedule. Didn’t notice any irrational or excessively fast driving either. Good service, would use again.

We were very happy with this bus company. Very comfortable seats/beds. The only issue was they didn’t supply sliders for when we stopped and only stopped once on a 10hr journey…

Contact with the company about the departure time of the bus was perfect. The bus was very clean and comfortable. Large beds even with a massage part. Which could be turned on or off! The drivers were very kind
