Anna R

The bus was 2.30h minutes late. Nobody spoke English on the bus; there were only two stops for the toilet during a journey of over 10 hours.

The bus was an hour late and none of the charging ports on the bus were working. We were also put in seats at the back which had no storage space for our belongings.

As comfortable as it could be, spacious beds with pillow, blanket, water etc. USB didn't work for me. Road was very bumpy at points but not the entire time. Driver was late due to landslide, communication and clarity about check in could be better improved (telling people to stand outside coopmart with no other direction is not enough).

Overall it was a good experience — the van itself was comfortable and clean. The driving was very safe too, especially considering we drove through flood affected areas. The bus was 1hr late though, and estimated travel time was 8 hours and it ended being 12 hours. The bus was running late and ended up dropping two of us off on the highway but paid for a cab for us to get to Hoi An.

Average sleeper bus. 1. Was 1 hour late for departure. 2. Communication was poor and I had to contact the bus company multiple times for departure updates. 3. Bus was uncomfortable with the bed smelling. 4. 9 hours with only 1 toilet stop and no toilet onboard. 5. Very bumpy ride throughout. Driver hard breaking at times. Will not use again.

Bus was confortable with big bed. Also lots of toilet stop (at least during the day). Minus: people smoking in the bus. Also communication is not at the maximum regarding toilet stop and delay.

Eoin O

This was a very poor experience, the bus was 35 minutes late and there was absolutely no communication from 12Go regarding the registration or that the bus was going to be late. Due to the lateness the driver drove extremely fast, trying to make up time. This was very dangerous considering the roads were wet and it was dark.
