A: When booking a cabin bus from Sapa to Halong, you may have seen options for "single" and "double" cabins (which classified by several service providers). It's important to clarify that this distinction is based solely on occupancy, not cabin size, as both are identically sized, measuring approximately 90cm x 180cm.
- Single Berth/Cabin: This is a private cabin for one person, who pays one full fare.
- Double Berth/Cabin: This refers to the same standard-sized cabin shared by two people (e.g., a couple). Each person pays a slightly reduced fare. These cabins are compact, typically measuring around 90cm x 180cm, and are designed to fit two adults snugly.

Our Agency Policy: Single Cabins Only
We exclusively sell single-cabin bus tickets. While double cabins are an option on some services, we have found their compact size can be quite tight, particularly for taller or larger passengers. On a long journey like Sapa to Halong route, this can lead to discomfort and potential issues. To ensure your transfer is as comfortable and trouble-free as possible, we guarantee you the full space and privacy of a single cabin.
Our goal is to provide the best possible experience for your journey through Vietnam, and a single cabin booking ensures you have maximum space for a restful trip.
A: If, after considering our explanation about the limited space and potential discomfort in double cabins, you still wish to book one—for example, for a parent sharing with a child or two friends traveling together—we can accommodate your request upon direct inquiry.
To proceed, please contact us directly through this link: Transfer Request, and our team will be happy to assist you.
A: Yes, we prioritize arranging cabins for group bookings to be side by side or in close proximity to each other. However, this is subject to the bus's availability at the time of your reservation.
