Reviews
We left on time, but due to very bad traffic in Haiphong, we arrived 30 minutes late in Cat Hai. The transfer between bus and boat was very smooth and there was no waiting time. But in the end, what we really prefer is to go by boat only from Haiphong to Cat Hai. Olivier
We arrived 30 minutes late due to some mess in Cat Hai waiting for people who were very late. Olivier
Local bus - ferry - local bus, no issues; accepted the on-line ticket, seemed to recognize the name "Baolau" repeated out-loud, they seem to prefer paper tickets, but no issues. Garth
The bus driver in Car Ba kept passing people and cutting through even to bycicles in the Island. I don't think there was such a rush and he could have been more careful and avoided putting other people in danger and us as well. The roads are more dangerous and there is no need to cut the lane. Better to calm down and think of safety first. Ana
All personnel were very attentive and helpful during the trip especially while switching from bus-ferry-bus. They showed us exactly where to go, Ticked sales went smooth. Louise
We were very pleased with all personnel involved. They were helpful and showed us exactly where to go on the bus-ferry-bus. Ticket sales went smooth as well. Louise
Tardó mucho en salir el bus al ferry. Después de un bus un ferry y otro bus llegamos a nuestro destino. Irene
No incidents occurred, and everything was fine. Justin

They didn’t book my tickets, the driver didn’t get any money and I had to pay twice! When contacting the customer service, they didn’t have my name or anything. I have reported as scam. Maria
Je pensais que je réservais un bateau direct jusqu’à Cat Ba, mais c’étaient 2 bus et un ferry. Jerome
