Ninh Binh to Da Nang Destination Reviews

MG
Manav G
Overall, the bus and everything was good. I am giving this rating only because of the driver and attendant. I was carrying food on board which they didn't let me take inside - i totally understood this as this is an acceptable practice. However, later when the bus stopped at the resting point. The driver didn't let me fetch the food to eat outside the bus. Hello typically locked the bus and went away for 20 mins atleast to the restaurant he had stopped at. Hello was even point at me to get the food from the restaurant. Eventually, I slept empty stomach and my food ( simple banh mi) went stale until the next day we reached and I had to throw it away. Not sure about his arrangment with the restaurant but, this definitely spoiled my overall experience. @team, please check such things don't happen because of the staff on board.

Cabin was in the last carriage. Not very clean. Tow nails on the floor. Dried in syrup on wall. Toilet in the carriage was so dirty and people kept going in there to smoke. Beds rock hard and uncomfortable. We paid £60/bed which is extortionate for what you get.

The bus was great, but the people behind the bus are not that great. They were supposed to contact me for instructions I have to text them many times until their help; I booked a bus from Ninh Binh bus terminal to My Khe beach in Da Nang the bus dropped us off i guess in the bus terminal, no one said nothing i started to look for the company for the shuttle service and the people are so rude; I understand the language barrier so I use the translation app, but they were busy in their phones, they just point like go over there without saying nothing but I had to come back and tell them like i don’t speak Vietnamese i don’t understand what is going on, however all of the guys involved in the shuttle service were not polite at all. I was very stressed at the end of my journey

Unfortunately the usb was not working for my seat and I checked with others and they said the same thing, this caused my battery to drain and caused me some serious time constraints when booking my accommodation in the morning
