Noi Bai airport Hanoi - HAN to Halong Bay transfer review
Thanks Michael !
Mind you Titop island climb needs a bit fitness but halfway point up itself is a treat to watch. Caves/water/hill/limestones/beach/food/cruise cabin - all upto an A+ class experience. Would definitely come back ! ...Read more
The communication between A21 and me was outstanding. Before, during and after pickup and drop off. Everything was clear and the response time was unbelievably quick. I should mention the price is always slightly lower than the service provided by the cruise ships. I have used A21 twice and it’s a 10/10 for me. ...Read more
A21 has been amazing. I found them by chance online looking last minute for transportation. They made the second half of my time in Vietnam when I was crunched for time and still wanting to pack in more a breeze.
I booked a car from Hanoi to Halong last second which was twice as fast as the bus and picked me up at the Hanoi airport right on time and took me straight to my hotel in Halong. In Halong they were able to get me on a boat tour that was amazing and back to Hanoi, which I had the best time on.
From Hanoi I was able to grab one of their luxury buses to Ninh Binh. They pick you up and drop you off right at your hotel.
Everyone you interact with is knowledgeable and speakers multi languages well. Witty and just all around great. You’re able to communicate directly with ease through WhatsApp, and pay via PayPal.
When you totaled up costs of regular buses, the cabs you have to use to get to and from the stations, the wait time which can be hours because of schedules. The longer drive times. Then toss in food, and entrance fees you wind up paying more, especially if you toss in a tour guide. With a lot more footwork work. Even if A21 is 6-8 bucks more it’s absolutely worth it.
This company is awesome. I would highly recommend reaching out to them. Super accommodating when plans change or are last minute too. ...Read more
We stumbled over A21 only a few weeks before or trip to Vietnam. From the first minute, the contact was fast, professional and accurate. Where we were just looking for an airport transport to Hanoi, we rapidly felt comfortable to engage with A21 for most of our transport around Hanoi (from Hanoi to Halong Bay, Halong Nay to Ninh Binh and back to Hanoi).
All trips were handled perfectly: pick up/drop off at hotel, always on time, comfortable cars, close follow up on the day of travel and even during the drives for longer distances, extremely friendly staff and fair pricing.
I can only recommend their services
Dear A21, again Thank you!! ...Read more
We booked multiple trips through A21 including airport pickup and drop off. The A21 crew was incredibly flexible. Our flight from Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi was delayed by an hour. When we arrived, our driver was waiting for us and extremely helpful and happy. We also booked our Halong Bay tour through A21. Overall, the experience was top notch. For our trip to Sapa, we booked a private car with a driver for 3 days and 2 nights. Our driver was professional and accommodating. The prices offered by A21 is competitive and the A21 team is always reachable via WhatsApp. We had to change our plans multiple times prior to landing in Vietnam and A21 was always accommodating. They made our trip to Hanoi and Sapa easy and enjoyable. ...Read more
Hired A21 for Ha long to Hanoi airport, everything was perfect, right on time, highly recommended.
Did a stop on Hanoi for a few mins, changed car, but all on time and a comfortable ride
I booked my trip w A21 and had to cancel it due to some medical conditions. In the midst of my handling all these medical issues, Michael was prompt in his replies and rendered one of the best customer svs that I had encountered thus far. I might have missed this trip, but with this experience, I'm sure , God willing, I will come back to this company:) ...Read more
Being able to use WhatsApp to reply and this WiFi was great.
We used them twice for car service pick up at HPH Cat Bi airport to Halong Bay Hotel and then again from Halong Bay to Hanoi.
Always on time and safe drivers.
Would highly recommend. ...Read more
