Clean and Pleasant Transfer to Ha Long Bay
Experience was smooth and great! I booked based on the good reviews after booking through another company and encountering several problems. The driver showed up on time, was pleasant, the van was spacious, clean, and had glass breakers in case of emergency (this is the first time I've seen this in our transports and I really appreciated the detail to safety). Our driver drove us safely to Halong Bay and was so friendly. After experiencing a few transfers in Vietnam where there were grumpy drivers, aggressive drivers, vans where the doors wouldn't open from the inside, and a driver who refused to drive us after showing up, I greatly appreciate the professionalism. Would absolutely book again through this company.

Great Airport Transfer Service
I booked this VTS Service for 2 ways. Pick up from airport to Hanoi Town and also Pick up from Hanoi town to the airport. I am very satisfied with the service. The driver is very on time and professional. They can speak very little English but everything was fine. The price was very reasonable with the nice car pick up. Highly recommend for those who are in hurry and does not have much time to wait for Grab or taxi.

Great Airport Transfer Service
Im really appreciate with the help of this transfer team as they help to send me safely from Hanoi airport to Hanoi city and vice versa. The driver wait me at the designated area punctually as the time stated in my bookings. They greet us well and help us out with our bags to carry inside the car and drive us safely to our destination. Even though one of the driver I met is a little bit more aggressive in driving but still acceptable for me as this might be the driving culture in Hanoi. Close your eyes, believe the driver and enjoy the ride. Overall, is a good and comfort experience. Once again great work to the team and keep up the good work.

Easy booking!
I had just engaged VTS for my recent hanoi trip between 4th jan to 8th jan 2020. Right after I booked, I get a text from Kaylee who sent me a detailed instruction to meet the driver. True enough, it was a breeze from the airport and I had no issues finding the driver. Driver was on time and a good attitude. Journey to the hotel was excellent. Ride was smooth. Engaged them again for the transport to Halong Bay and back to hotel. So far it had been easy and no fuss. Will definitely reccomend to the my friends and do try them out!

Very Polite Service
The driver was on time. He was very courteous and had very good knowledge of which route to take. He dropped us to the right spot on the Airport and helped us till the Airport departure gate.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
PRIVATE TRANSFER BETWEEN HANOI city and HALONG BAY or HALONG CITY: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.
How much does PRIVATE TRANSFER BETWEEN HANOI city and HALONG BAY or HALONG CITY cost?
+
Prices start at $110 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hanoi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does PRIVATE TRANSFER BETWEEN HANOI city and HALONG BAY or HALONG CITY take?
+
Plan for about 3.8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hanoi is not rushed.
Is PRIVATE TRANSFER BETWEEN HANOI city and HALONG BAY or HALONG CITY worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule PRIVATE TRANSFER BETWEEN HANOI city and HALONG BAY or HALONG CITY?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is PRIVATE TRANSFER BETWEEN HANOI city and HALONG BAY or HALONG CITY suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book PRIVATE TRANSFER BETWEEN HANOI city and HALONG BAY or HALONG CITY?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hanoi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hanoi and add a light layer if any part of the 3.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does PRIVATE TRANSFER BETWEEN HANOI city and HALONG BAY or HALONG CITY start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hanoi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hanoi?
+
On Outty we rank every Hanoi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ha Giang Loop 3-Day Small Group - from Hanoi, (Group/Individual) HANOI STREET FOOD TOUR, Incense Village Quang Phu Cau, Hat Village and Hanoi City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hanoi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hanoi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
