Hai Phong to Lao Cai Destination Reviews

MD
The bus was quite comfortable (even though a bit narrow for plus-size people), the temperature was not too cold, and the two stops for toilet breaks and dinner were nice. However: the bus arrived 2 hours late and made a lot of stops, which made the journey last for 12 hrs instead of 6 by car. Clearly is the cheats option, but think twice before purchasing a ticket.

Staff was so unfriendly in the Bus from Hanoi to Sapa! No Communication at all. Bus stopped no Information. Driver yelled at guest- Never experienced such a behaviour. Wifi worked only for 30 minutes, then no wifi at all.
