Unfortunately, it was raining a little, but we were given disposable raincoats and could borrow hats to use as umbrellas, so we were able to tour the old town at night without getting wet. The bus driver was very kind.

Excellent team and very well managed smooth execution. I have booked quite a few tours on my vietnam visit and this one by far is most detailed oriented. Not just the tour company rep. but the allotted tour guide will also contact and introduce himself a day before the trip. I got Luca (Linh) as my tour guide and he was very detailed oriented,excellent time management, friendly smiling guy who explained everything in detail. The lunch was a buffet with many options including many for the vegetarians (no halal options but Muslims can eat from vegetarian options). The Transportation was very comfortable,clean. Tours can at times feel rushed because much to do in a short span of time, in case you want to take things slow perhaps staying in Ninh Binh for 2-3 days is recommended in that case.

Thank you for a smooth transaction…I was able to get confirmation immediately and also another confirmation via whatsapp a day before our scheduled trip. Appreciate the effort and reminder!

One of the best transportation mode from Hanoi to Sapa and v.v. Leaves on time and bed are comfortable for the 8 hour travel. Each cabin has bottled water, bananas and snacks, toiletries like toothbrush and comb, and earplugs too. Clean restroom. Lounge in Lao Cai is clean and they provide free welcome snacks. If it’s your first time like us though, you’ll doubt if you’re in the right cabin as no staff will assist you onboard. But it’s easy to find your cabin.

Comfortable sleeper bus with reclining seats, blankets, and a smooth ride. The driver was safe, and two convenient stops allowed passengers to grab snacks or use the restrooms. The journey is a great budget-friendly option for a relaxing trip between Hanoi and Sapa.

It was a fun, easy, and interesting time to learn about Vietnam's traditional culture and legends. I thought it was just a simple puppet show, but I learned more than that and returned home. But honestly, I like Asian music (sounds like Ajaeng?) and songs (the songs also sound like Ajaeng), so I was able to enjoy it, but those who don't like this kind of thing might think it's a bit noisy. I recommend listening to it on YouTube or something before watching it.
