They called us 1.5 hours earlier and told us we had to be there immediately or we would not be able to travel that day anymore. Because of that, we ended up on a bus that departed an hour early. The bus ride itself was really bad. The road to Sapa is already difficult and very winding, but the driver was driving far too fast, braking very harshly all the time, and taking the corners extremely aggressively. In the end, we arrived safely, but even on the highway it was impossible to relax or sleep.

Even though there was an incident on the way to Sapa where several bus windows were shattered (on three buses at the same time), there was no explanation or apology given to the passengers, which only made us feel anxious and unsafe.

We were not able to take our original schedule but we were assigned to the next bus. To our surprise, we were the only passengers in the bus. It was smooth experience, the trip was indeed fast but safe. The driver is very skilled and professional. We were able to sleep during the trip and we didn't feel dizzy or unwell at all. Thank you so much for the great service.

The driver was very helpful, but the places that we stopped charged money to use the restroom and we smoke filled environments. We never got to.Fansipan. The driver dropped us off in SaPa and left us no alternative to getting to our location. We all felt stranded and laughed with an alternative, except to take care of our own situations.
