Hassle-Free Bus Travel: 24/7 Support & Flexible Changes
If you’re looking for the fastest way to travel between Hanoi and Sapa, the bus is your best option. The journey takes 5-6 hours, depending on traffic. Morning buses leave Hanoi and arrive in Sapa early afternoon, giving you time for a short trek to your homestay on the same day. After your trek, the return bus will pick you up directly from our office and take you back to Hanoi.
The bus makes two scheduled stops along the way, each lasting 15-30 minutes, where you can use the restroom and buy food. The drivers are experienced, and the route follows a newly built highway, but traffic conditions in Vietnam can still be unpredictable.
If you’d like to be dropped off in Hanoi’s Old Quarter, we recommend the 2:00 PM Limousine bus from Sapa. To catch it, plan to finish your trek earlier that day so you’ll arrive back in time.
Our bus service is designed with your peace of mind in mind: if you encounter any issue on the road, simply reach out to our 24/7 hotline at +84 912 961 056 or +84 378 442 489 (Ms Nhung on WhatsApp, Zalo, text or call).
We pride ourselves on flexibility—should your plans change, we’ll adjust your departure time or date at no extra cost (or with only a minimal fee, depending on circumstances) to ensure your journey goes smoothly.
