Overcharged for the visa. Should only be 30$ not 35$
Pleasant trip no mishaps will use again
1 problem and I think it is on Bookmebus: the boarding point was not the one mentionned on the site... ihad to pay an extra taxi journey to get to the real bus boarding point and luckily I was early to get the bus because it took 15 min.
I driver drived too slow. Just about everyone passed him on the road, including small scooters. There was no heavy traffic, the weather was good, the border crossing was fast. The trip took 8 hours instead of the normal 7 hours.
Pros: 1. Staff in the office are all nice. 2. Bus is on time. Cons: 1. The conductor tried to ask for dollars even we said that Filipinos dont need to pay since we are Visa Free. 2. The bus is old. 3. Too hot on the bus. 4. NO WIFI
We were the only people on the bus for half the journey and one other person joined half way through so definitely felt like a cup service ha ha . All round very impressed though we arrived nearly an hour late on a 3 hour journey though the roads were bad
good
Use the vipvans regularly. This trip the driver was giving gas and the breaking in very inefficient way. Made people motion sick. After talking to driver he drove a little better but overall not a great trip this time. Next time better I hope
We arrived 1 hour later than the specified time.
