Ninh Binh to Da Nang Destination Reviews

Unfortunately the usb was not working for my seat and I checked with others and they said the same thing, this caused my battery to drain and caused me some serious time constraints when booking my accommodation in the morning

We can highly recommend this overnight bus - the bus was so comfortable I think I got the best night sleep in my whole time in Vietnam! No delays and arrived in good time. Very organised.

Mostly the experience was good. A bit annoying to have to be picked up by a mini bus then wait an hour to be picked up by the actual bus. But still arrived on time. Beds were comfy, good facilities and really glad to have a toilet. The reason for the poor review is due to the bus having a collision with another bus. I was disappointed in the actions of the drivers after the crash as they didn’t check passengers were okay and didn’t move the bus off the busy carriageway, to a safe place. The crash was not acknowledged by any staff at any point during or after the event

I have to say the booking process was very confusing as I thought we were booking a 4 berth cabin all 4 berths and even though I did my research it still was very unclear on the site. I ended up with my 4 yo son having roommates. Then they offered to upgrade us for 50USD which of course we accepted so we could have our privacy but it felt very scammy. Also then we ended up in a different operators cabin so we had none of the normal amenities that we’re supposed to come with the Laman cabin we booked. It was a very cool experience overall but too stressful and I feel that 12Go’s website is not very user friendly for this trip.

The booking stated that the train would be new and luxurious. In reality it was a super old worn down train and cabin that received a sloppy paintjob and halfhearted renovation to make it look better. Sadly that didnt work out. The light breakfast consisted of a packaged burger bun with butter, an orange and a jogurt. The jogurt was in the cabin already and not cooled. So the next morning we decided out of caution to not eat it anymore. The train ride was very bumpy throughout the whole night which didnt benefit sleeping. We chose the train over bus cause we thought it would be more comfortable but after trying both it dient feel like. Train personal was really nice thought.
