Sapa to Cat Ba Island: cabin bus and Cat Ba Express with ferry

One ticket from Sapa to Cat Ba Island. A VIP cabin bus takes you down to Hanoi, where you change to the Cat Ba Express bus for the ride to the coast and the ferry across to the island. We line up both legs so the connection works.

Take the 07:00 bus to arrive on Cat Ba in the evening, or the 22:00 night bus to sleep on the way and reach the island around midday. The whole trip takes about 10 to 12 hours. Tickets are priced per person.
