Ninh Binh to Dao Cat Ba Destination Reviews

We had a transfer from Tam Coc to Cat Ba with Daichi and everything went very smoothly. The whole experience was excellent from start to finish. The bus was clean, the driver drove extremely well, and the journey felt safe and comfortable. We were also pleasantly surprised to receive complimentary water and snacks during the trip, which was a really nice touch.

Overall a good trip, I was a bit confused as the ticket had said express bus and sleeper? But it was just a bus the whole way. Still a good trip and I was dropped at my hotel which was amazing!

Even though we had to arrive at the bus station half an hour earlier and we stopped on the roadside for some time in-between, the bus ride was great and perfectly on time. Additionally, we all received a small welcome bag containing a water bottle, cookies and a sanitary towel.

Was actually able to sleep good for some hours! There was a toilet and some water. Good pillow and blanket. Not sure how clean tho, so I put a towel under my head.
