we are very comfortable in our cabin, they provided bottled water for each passenger. we had 2 stop overs. the driver is very good and very safe in driving. it is very sad that the wifi is not working on both our ways to Sapa and coming back to Hanoi. maybe the bus company must take a look at it because 6 hour travel is very boring when you don’t have wifi nowadays.

Our sleeper bus from Hanoi to Sapa was okay. The bus was clean and equipped with blanket to keep the passengers warm. They also provided a complimentary water for us which is great.

We visited several iconic sites in Hanoi, including St. Joseph's Cathedral, the Hanoi Opera House, Hoàn Kiếm Lake, Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum, Tran Quoc Pagoda, and Train Street. Our stop at Hoàn Kiếm Lake was a spontaneous detour—our guide noticed we hadn’t been there before and suggested a quick visit for some photos. He also went out of his way to help us find a clean restroom when needed. Zach, our tour guide, was fantastic. His excellent English made communication effortless, and his friendly, knowledgeable approach to the history of each site really enriched the experience. He also took great photos for us! Thanks to our driver also for always being on time. We’re already looking forward to our next trip to Hanoi!
