Hanoi to Hoi An Destination Reviews

KL
I recently traveled with To Vietnam Travel’s bus service, and I must say it was a pleasant experience. Here are the highlights: Convenient Location: The office in Hanoi is conveniently situated near Hoan Kiem Lake. This allowed me to arrive early, drop off my luggage, and take a leisurely stroll around the lake. Comfortable Waiting Area: The waiting area felt like a cool hotel lobby, with plenty of comfortable seating. It was a refreshing place to relax before my journey. Friendly Staff: The staff members were exceptionally friendly. They escorted me to the bus stop using a shuttle service, and we boarded the bus promptly. Clean and Luxurious Bus: The bus itself was spotless and well-maintained. The cabin had a touch of luxury, making the journey more enjoyable. In summary, I highly recommend traveling with To Vietnam Travel’s bus service

Tavelling by night was okay, it was an 18h trip from hanoi to hoi an, we had to change bus at 7AM, but overall it was okay. There was a bathroom in the bus, no toilet paper, although after a few hours I preferred to wait just to arrive to my destination. Bus drivers are a bit rough, not kind at all, so just go not expecting any special treatment. I'm a slender woman of 1.73m, the seats were okay for me, but I can definitely see others struggling with the seat size. I will probably take a flight next time, as the price was almost the same as the usual 30$ of Vietjet, but the bus was an acceptable option during new years' as the other options (train, airplane) were terribly expensive.

it’s always a hit or miss with these busses but this one wasn’t too good. the bus was almost 4 hours late and when i got on the bus driver was talking very loudly for basically the entire time, like almost yelling. the bus itself was good though, but nowhere near the great experiences i’ve had before.

Picked up by minivan and taken to big bus on time and big bus left promptly. Clean and comfortable bus with toilet on board. Office staff in Hanoi said the bud was direct but at 7am we were woken up in Hue and told we had to get off the bus and wait an hour for the next bus to take us the rest of the way. This was uncomfortable and unexpected. We then got on the same bus and went to Hoi an, bus arrived roughly 30minutes after expected time so overall a reasonable journey

The bus had three rows of seats/beds and two asiles. Each Seats reclined almost all the way and we're a bit narrow for north american standards. The ride was pretty comfortable however the constant honking that is part of traffic in Vietnam kept me from having a really restful night.

Very Poor service, So much delay from actual time. Seats are not comfortable. My baggage is totally wet with rain water even in their storage. I suggest to skip this bus operator to every person.

Bus VIP 33 Sleeper , Grouptour (Công ty du lịch quốc tế Grouptour), Jun 3, 2023
LD
Drivers don’t cares about customers. No informations provided, no effort to answer questions. They randomly turn on all the lights inside the cabine during the night, we end up believing that they do it on purpose to wake everyone up, at the same time the driver honks non-stop, day and night throughout the journey, which lasts 19 hours, instead of 17,5. Half of seats are broken, does not recline properly. If you want to go from Hanoi to Hoi An, take de plane, or another bus company, or prepare for a bad ride.

Travelling by bus essentials

  • If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
  • VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
  • Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
  • If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
  • Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
  • To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
  • As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
  • Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
  • If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
