Excellent comfort. Wide cabin. Clean. Bottled water and clean toilet at back of bus. Best bus journey during my 30 days in Vietnam. The bus company was SAO VIET.

The ride itself was okay. Unfortunately, the staff were very unfriendly (when booking/ticket collection and on the bus). There was a toilet on the bus, shortly after departure it stank so bad that you could hardly use the seats at the back. They fixed it later, but after that there was still not 100% good. TV and wifi didn‘t work

When we arrived at the bus station 1 hour early, it seems like we were not included in the booking for 1PM. The receptionist moved us to 1:30 pm without any explanations, maybe she had a hard time explaining in english. In any case, the bus we rode on was clean and comfortable. The ride out of Sa Pa gave us motion sickness, but it eventually settled down after the zig zag roads.

The agent is super helpful. They will contact you by Whatsapp one day before departure. The bus is super cozy. The light installation is comfortable enough. They provide one pillow and one blanket for your more comfortable sleep. The thing that I suggest is it will be more convenient to provide water bottle and wet napkin for the passengers.

The ride was good and the driver drove well. The bus was on time and we also arrived as planned. We lost our wallet in the bus and the bus driver A. Duong was very nice and helped us get it back.
