Ha Giang to Ninh Binh Destination Reviews

K
Ha giang to Hanoi was not a problem. A bit late but thats nothing to worry about. But I’m Hanoi I was the only one going to Ninh Binh. And the Worker from Daiichi wrote me that I will just switch the bus at the office. But there, after 30min waiting, they told me to jump on a bike for a 9km ride to the other bus. I refused because that’s more then 30min on a bike with my big bags and it also started raining. After that they organised me a Van to the other Van which drives to Ninh Binh. There, nobody spoke english and they wanted 200k at first, although i booked everything already on 12go. After a lot of discussion with a language barrier they put me in a van to Ninh binh and there I had to switch again to another van to my hotel. In conclusion, Ha giang to Hanoi was good. But everything after that was unorganised and stressful.

Even though the recliner did not work properly it was pretty comfortable. The WiFi was weak and the bus was a bit late, but overall very comfortable for a long journey.

The bus does not arrive at 6am but at 3:30am, you would have to let them know to reserve accommodation because at that time it is very difficult if you have not done it in advance.

The bus arrived late, we were not allowed to choose the places we wanted (the best ones were saved for the locals), the whole trip the drivers were shouting and honking, they stopped only once in 9 hours and the bathrooms were really disgusting, and also arrived at dawn 1.30h earlier than planned which meant that we had to wait on the street longer for the homestay reception to open.

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.
