Generally very good trip from Nha Trang to Da Lat. The driver was very considerate, friendly and helpful to myself and all the passengers. He was a very confident and generally capable driver, except he was a bit aggressive to others on the road, and not very skilled at defensive driving. He spent too much of the time right on his edge of his lane, or unnecessarily right on or over the center line of two-way roads, and often drifting onto the wrong side of the road and staying there aggressively when he didn't need to be. I'm used to driving in traffic on very windy roads in New Zealand so I know what I am talking about. He was also very aggressive in his overtaking style, occasionally forcing other road users to get out of his way. Frankly I think he's an accident waiting to happen when one day he runs into a similar driver coming the other way. He would be a very good driver if he learned a little about defensive driving. To his credit, at least he did not speed. This is the registration number of the minibus: 79H-10231. I hope the bus company looks into it.

Overall, the trip was nice and comfortable. The only thing that felt a bit odd was the seating arrangement. At the back of the bus there was a three-person seat and four separate seats, but the allocation didn’t seem very balanced. Three bigger passengers were placed together on the three-person seat, while four smaller passengers got the larger individual seats. It might be something to improve for future trips.

Seats were cramped much more than other similar vehicles in Vietnam and the air conditioning was not working that well. Wifi was very slow.

The combination of the minibuses suspension and the quality of the roads made this trip feel like it was intended to make you breakfast come up again. We were on a Gazelle minibus, but I saw the company also had some DCAR minibuses which might be more comfortable. I would recommend finding a proper bus ride, which usually has a much better suspension. When you order the ride they ask you to come 30 minutes before, but we got a WhatsApp message asking us to come 45 minutes before. We got that message late when we were already asleep. They should just make up their mind about when they want people to show up, so customers don’t have to stress to get there on time.
