Lao Cai to Hai Phong Destination Reviews

BH
Departed 1 hour late, but arrival has been on time. Great we did not have to switch busses in Hanoi. Could stay on one bus for the whole trip. No water or snacks have been provided.

I’m just to tall for the cabins in the back of the bus. Getting in is chaotic and stressful. The bus reached his destination just in time.
