Comfy seats, screen worked, USB and USBc plugs worked, had a toilet, WiFi, driver checked everyone was back in their seats before departing from the stop, stopped just the right number of times. Best bus we’ve been on in Vietnam. Also arrived even a little bit earlier than scheduled.

Absolutely terrible experience. I booked a lower berth and was given a different seat. The seat and blanket were both dirty, I was placed next to the toilet with a constant bad smell, and the air conditioning barely worked. The staff were completely unhelpful and dismissed my concerns instead of trying to help. It became so uncomfortable that standing in the aisle felt better than sitting in my assigned seat, yet I wasn’t even allowed to stay there. The only thing this company has going for it is the low price, but even that doesn’t make up for such a miserable experience. I would not recommend this service to anyone.

The bus and the office staff in Sapa and Hanoi are five stars. Each cabin has a nice blanket and pillow, and the seats have a massage function that you control with a remote. The WiFi on my bus didn’t work, but the TV worked (only shows Vietnamese programs). The bus played an announcement in English as well as Vietnamese when we pulled into the rest stops, and that was helpful. The bus has a WC on board, which was clean. Up until our arrival in Hanoi, it was a five-star trip, but things fell apart on arrival. My ticket was booked to 70 Nguyen Hữu Huân, but the trip ended at a different location, and passengers were told to board a minibus that would take us to 70 Nguyen Hữu Huân. The driver of the minibus was rude — he dropped some passengers at their hotels but refused to do so for others, including me. Another passenger asked him where her dropoff would be, and he refused to answer her. He continued to drive around the Old Quarter but refused to drop off passengers whose hotels were in that neighborhood. I eventually just got off the minibus and got a Grab to my hotel, although the whole thing wasted about an hour of my time, plus this was after midnight, so I did not feel safe as I waited for my Grab ride. Because of this, I’d probably just go with Sao Viet in the future — the buses aren’t as fancy, but at least there was no nonsense like the HK minibus experience.

All the employees were rude, only talk in Vietnamese. Were treated badly because we are tourists compared to the good service for Vietnamese people. Really bad driving.

We were 30 min ahead of time, but the driver dropped us off at the International terminal although we had clearly booked the national terminal. I even asked him. It was no Problem, but we had to take another bus to the domestic terminal.

Ride was fine. Again instructions for pick up were wrong. Not the friendliest desk either.

Had an amazing journey from Sapa to Hanoi. The driver made 2 halts for passengers to freshen up as the journey was more than 5hrs. The beds were comfortable and it was a great experience travelling. The communication was prompt, timely and very friendly with reminders on whatsapp. Would highly recommend G8 Tours for your next inter-city travel.
