Vietnam’s sleeper buses are one of the most popular ways to travel long distances around the country, but I had no idea what to expect on my first trip. I booked a VIP sleeper bus from Sapa to Ninh Binh, which meant fewer bunks, more space, and hopefully a chance to actually get some sleep.

The adventure started before I even got on the bus. I had to figure out the Sapa bus station, find the correct bus, take off my shoes, and immediately got yelled at because I still had dirt on my pants from trekking through the rice terraces.

Once we got moving, I checked out my sleeper bunk, tried to get comfortable, and attempted to sleep through the driving and nonstop honking. Along the way, we stopped at local Vietnamese rest stops, checked out the sleeper bus bathroom, and I even tried some late-night chicken pho.

After about eight hours on the road, I finally arrived in Ninh Binh. So, are Vietnam sleeper buses actually comfortable—or are they torture? And is the VIP sleeper bus worth paying extra for?
