Tam Coc to Hanoi Destination Reviews

KK

We got from point A to point B, but it was the most chaotic transfer service we used in Vietnam. Firstly we were not sure if we were on the right bus - it was not informative at all. We traveled the first 3 km of the way for one hour, making strange stops in the middle of nowhere to pick up more passengers which obviously delayed our journey. The driver was agressive, the sound of the horn was the worst we ever heard in Vietnam - it made the way so much stressful.

Great service. Clean, efficient and on time. Just a lack of communication surrounding the switching of vehicles. I had to get in 3 different taxis but was unaware of this.

Bus/van was over booked as there was not enough seats, one of us had to squeeze into the middle seat in the front. Furthermore we got dropped off at a different location 20 minutes away from the location on our ticket, and staff were not helpful and didn’t understand the issue. finally they booked us a car to the location. Overall felt there was a lack of organisation. Disappointed by the service.

Had to transfer 2 times and took longer than expected. But at least the driver was kind to drop us off directly at our location.

Bit rogue but that’s Asia for you. Got picked up from Tam Coc by car with some others (very good communication via WhatsApp), where they drove us to the bottom of Hang Mua big pagoda where we waited for our actual bus. We were a bit confused, but turns out we joined a tour group from Hanoi for the bus back to the city (they had spaces left on the bus). Friendly staff and got to the specified drop off point, but we were an hour late because we left an hour later due to the transfer and having to wait for the bus. Comfy bus though!
