How to buy tickets for bus from Ha Noi to Ha Long?

You can choose one of two ways to purchase tickets:

Buy direct bus tickets

You can go to Nuoc Ngam / My Dinh bus station, or your car’s Hanoi office and buy tickets directly. However, this is quite inconvenient because you will have to move to the bus station yourself and may have to wait a long time, unable to catch a satisfactory or low-priced bus. To avoid that, you can book a car ticket through the reception at your place of residence, or call the car directly to book, so it will be faster and more convenient.

Book tickets online or through a reputable dealer

There are many convenient booking websites such as vexere, 12go.asia, saodieu.vn, … You can access the website, enter the departure point, destination and departure date to choose the desired ride. A very convenient way is that you can contact the Travel Advisor’s Office (Tho Dia Travel) to book a ticket at your request and do not need to pay in advance.
