Tam Coc to Hoi An Destination Reviews

JR
Bus was good and trip to da dang was shorter than expected, BUT none said that once we arrived to da nang we’ve to wait for one hour to go to Hoian in a van. So basically you’re paying for a limousine to da nang and from there they distribute people to different places.

Had to wait for an hour at a roadside office in Danang, was given no information and not treated particularly well by the staff. When the car eventually picked us up an hour later to take us to Hoi An I expressed that I wasn’t happy to have been made to wait and not told why and they didn’t give me an explanation. This was early in the morning, and I would have loved some support.

The night bus itself was very comfortable, but the bus was very late, departing 2h later than planned (they warned us during the departure day) and arriving at 11:00 instead of 8:00 at Hoi An ! We weren't told, but at Hue we had to change bus and wait for 2h for the next one, that did not have enough sits for all the travellers (beware of the mototaxi men that are on the bus and that will try to extort you enormous amounts of money in exchange for taking you in the town center for breakfast)

I wouldn't recommend this! They put those of us on Tam Coc last so we had the shared space with 3 people at the back. I was lucky it was two women I was with as if it was two guys I would have felt unsafe as you're pretty much on top of eachother. Was in the middle space so no space for my stuff and the bed was too short, overall barely slept. Then they took us off the bus in De Nang where we waited almost two hours for a car to come to bring us to Hoi An. Wish I'd just paid for a budget sleeper and had my own space rather than paid extra for a VIP to share a space with strangers.

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.
