Instead of the booked van we got picked up by a big tour bus 20 minutes late. The bus started then to drive around Hanoi old town to pick up more people from their hotels. So we eventually left Hanoi about one hour late. The drive was ok and we actually made up some of the delay until we stopped at a pearl souvenir shop shortly before Ha Long bay for half an hour half an hour. Eventually we arrived one hour late. Annoyingly this was not caused by the traffic bus by poor organisation by the operator (Vehicle not as advertised, late departure, stop at souvenir shop)

The bus was too late and than they made a break about half an hour at some pearl store where it seems like they shuttle every tourist to. At least they brought as directly to our check in at the Harbour.

We where over 1 hour delayed. We just book a bus, and suddenly it was a transfer to a cruise, and it holds stop to look at something and that what not what we wanted. It was a 2 hours drive , but it was so much longer

Comfortable route, only frustrating they just “booked” 2 seats on the first bus for us, even tho we payed for 4. So we had to wait an extra hour for a new bus that had enough seats.
Plus side, they dropped us of at our hotel

We circled around Hanoi for 1 hour picking up every one (hotels were close but people took a long time to come) and it was annoying, given the fact that we were asked to be early at the first departure point. The driver was a bit slow driving, but that was ok. Then, just before arriving to Tuan Chau, we "strategically" stopped at the place were they sell jewelry and it was packed with people. This was unnecessary and you could see clearly that it was just for selling additional stuff.
