My girlfriend went to the toilet at night and her socks were drenched in pee. We were supposed to go to Ho Chi Minh center but somewhere in the outskirts we were woken up by people screaming at us that we had to go out. They were so pushy that we ended up forgetting stuff in the bus because of all the stress. After we were put in a minivan that went to pick up and drop off all kind of things in the city before they finally dropped us off in the center.
Book the VIP sleeper 22:40 supposed to arrive at 8 am in HCMC. Received text message a few hours before saying the coach would depart at 22 instead, also changing the station from which we were leaving. The message also said i needed to check in at the counter at the station. When we arrived at station the bus was already waiting. There was no one at the counter so still unclear what that was all about. Bus was comfortable and clean, got a blanket an pillow and there was a WC. At 4 am we were poked at and understood we had to get off the bus. Waited for about 10 minutes and then suddenly a minibus arrived. We got on, and 20 minutes later we arrived at on of main stations I HCMC 3,5 hrs before schedule. Useless time to arrive our budget hotell was locked up. Journey itself ok but everything felt quite confusing.
Second driver was late, maybe 20 minutes. First driver followed it up well. Excellent service.

We booked first class. Of course, this cannot be compared with European classes. but I expect at least clean sheets. unfortunately this was not the case. the toilet was also really disgusting. The train is very loud and shakes extremely. It was an experience, but sleeping is almost impossible.
We had paid for a VIP bus but I think that can mean different things depending on the tour company. The bus was dated and was without charging points, however, it was comfortable enough even if it was a little small, arrived in good time, had to transfer to another bus for the last half hour which isn’t very clear. Made plenty of stops for the toilet.
Just one minus, if you travel with child under five, there is not enough space on the seat, for both to have a normal sleep, better to pay more and get wider seat
