Must try! Sleeping on a VIP bus in Vietnam! 🇻🇳

Hello everyone! Today, I would like to share my real experience of sleeping on a VIP Cabin Bus in Vietnam! 😆 This trip, we came for 6 days and 5 nights. We were bored of visiting one city, so we looked for a way to continue on a low budget. And then... 🗣️ "Hey, I want to save money on accommodation. Staying for many days is expensive." 💡 "Then let's just sleep on the bus!!" This idea came to me, and I booked it without hesitation! 🚀 🚌 Bus of choice: VIP Cabin Bus by Viet Nhat ✔️ Reason for choosing: Depart at night, arrive at the destination in the morning, and continue your trip! There are reviews that say it's quite good, suitable for women traveling (this trip was all 3 women!) Price 530฿ (website ticket 489฿ + fee that's so high it makes you cry 😭) 📍 Bus stop: 263 D. Pham Ngū Lão, District 1 This area is a bus stop on the entire street. Every house is a bus stop! Easy to find, just ask for directions, Vietnamese people are very kind 😱 The peak of the trip Got on the wrong bus!!! But I realized it in time, quickly checked the ticket and got off just in time 😂 The bus I booked was delayed for almost half an hour, so I had to be calm... When I got on the bus, the staff gave me a bag to put my shoes + water and then took me to my own bed. 🛏️ The living conditions on the bus Each bed has: ✅ 1 pillow ✅ 1 very thin blanket ✅ Personal TV (but I couldn't watch anything 🤣) ✅ 2-3 USB ports ✅ Personal light + personal curtain Wi-Fi is available but sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. It's okay for a bus. 🚨 Disadvantages you need to know - Vietnam = The city of horns 🚗📢 Sleeping on the bus is like sleeping next to an alarm clock all night. - The road is good, but when you brake, your body will slide 😂 - Very cold! ❄️ The blanket provided is very thin, bring something to protect yourself from the cold! - No matter how good your travel companions are, they can't help 😭 We got hit by the people above "Step on the head" when getting off the bus 1 time - High chance of having the curtains opened because people often sleep in the wrong place 555 (we got it once) - Snoring is there, but not much, considered acceptable ⭐️ Summary of impression scores 🌟 Accuracy: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 (Better than expected!) 💁♀️ Service: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 (Deducted 1 star because I thought there would be more service) 🥶 Coldness: ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ (Getting hit by the iron is startling) 💺 Comfort: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 (Very good for a sleeper bus) 🚀 Summary: Should you try it? ✅ If you want a new experience + save on accommodation → Go for it! ✅ Travel at night, wake up and continue traveling → Very worthwhile ⚠️ But if you are a person who has difficulty sleeping or is extremely sensitive to the cold → You might have to think carefully For us, we are happy with the experience! Even though there were some peaks, it was a super fun trip ❤️ For those who want to try sleeping on a bus in Vietnam, I hope this review will help! ✨ #How to travel #Get discounts without relying on luck #Vietnam travel #Sleeping bus review #New Year, new trip
