We booked a private sedan transfer from Noi Bai International Airport to our hotel, and the experience was very smooth. Mr. Tho was punctual and waiting for us on arrival, which made everything easy after a long flight. He was friendly, helpful, and handled everything professionally. The car was clean and comfortable, and the drive into Hanoi was relaxed and efficient. Communication was clear throughout, which gave us extra peace of mind. Overall, a reliable and hassle-free transfer service—definitely a great option when arriving in Hanoi.

Driver was a no show after informing flight delay and new flight # claims they didn't receive. Had to take a grab.
Response from Host, Sep 2026
Dear customer,
we are so sorry to hear the story. However the feedback was very misleading and wrong. You gave us a wrong flight number (Korean Air 24, from San Francisco to Seoul, not to Hanoi). Once the booking arrived we sent the messages 2 times on Viator app asking for the correct flight number but no reply from you. And 5 hours later than the pickup time given you called us urgently (approximate 23:30) asking where the driver was. It was really impossible. Hope you will be more responsible and be honest about the posts.
Thank you!
The driver was not waiting when we arrived and then took another 30 minutes to find him and get into the car.

Dear customers,
We are sorry to hear this. Upon checking we found out that our driver waited for you patiently at the meeting point (the pillar 10 outside of the arrival lobby). The meeting point instruction was also written clearly in your voucher but you did not read it. We also tried to call you but your phone did not work. Until we got a call from a person at the airport saying that you were waiting inside the arrival lobby, the driver reached to your location right after that. We suggest that you should learn more about how to book online and read the voucher information carefully before giving the misleading feedbacks.
Good luck!
If your flight is delayed :
It has been my experience a couple of times that it has been difficult to find designated driver and even had to ring another pick up when our flights in vietnam were delayed over an hour the car wasnt at the pickup point to pick us up so we had to pay for another car when our first ride had already been paid for on line. In future i will not book and just get driver outside airport. Easier.

Dear, we are sorry to hear that you had to pay for another ride. Honestly, you booked a transfer to pick you up from the airport but you gave no information except your name and pickup time (no flight number, no hotel name for drop off, no contact number...,). At least you need to give us your flight number so that we can know where to meet you (at the domestic or international arrival terminal). Our driver arrived and waited for 1 hour and half but got no message or call from you even our hotline written in your voucher. Our team also sent messages to you several times via the app but no reply. So we hope that you should learn how to book a service next time. Thanks and good luck!

It was very easy to schedule this transportation, communicate with the driver and locate him after picking up our luggage at baggage claim. When our flight was delayed by 3 hours due to a mechanical issue, the driver was still there and ready to drive us when we arrived.
No prior communication on pick up and no driver to meet at the airport. No support when calling or messaging until after I had arranged alternative transportation.

Dear,
we are sorry for the pickup failure. The instruction was clearly written that the meeting point was at the pillar 10 outsie of the arrival lobby. However, you did not go there. Our driver was waiting there almost 1.5 hours but could not see you. Untill we saw your missed call. Once we called back via WhatsApp, you said you were in a taxi. You should give your contact in the booking so that we could reach you for pick up. You booked a service but left no contact. We sent a message via the app but no response from you.
Good luck to you!
I booked a pick up for 5 people could only take 4 no help from company to send another vehicle to airport my daughter and her boyfriend had to get a grab which was another expense I also had a return transfer booked with them which I cancelled because of poor service and incorrect information
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Dear,
We are sorry to hear this. Howver, you should be honest with the posts. Your group has 5 adults and 1 child of 5 years old, plus 5 cabin suitcases and 5 bags. You should book a van but you chose a SUV option to save money. Once you met the driver and the car, the driver could not load all into the car. We suggested a solution that we would arrange an extra car with extra costs but you were very impolite giving bad words to us. You kept saying that you must have an extra car without extra payment and you keep threatening us that you would post a negative review if our team would not offer extra free car. Obviously it was your mistake, not our mistake so we would rather accept a wrong revenge from you rather than obey your unfair requests. This is not a right way to make money. We think that your negative post will not mislead others. The return ride was denied by our team. We hope that you stop doing this way to other operators. It is not very nice anfd totally wrong. You will get the outcomes in the future.
They never showed up to pick us up! She had to get another cab and pay again. This is not what we expect from Viator!

Dear customer,
We are sorry to hear this. However, the story was not true. You booked an airport pickup but you canceled our service last minute. You also asked for a full refund but we said it was impossible under our cancellation policy. You should have accepted that instead of making your own story, It is really dishonest and unfair.
Thank you.
We arrived at Hanoi airport on time. However, due to multiple flight arrivals it took us 1 1/2 hours to clear immigration and then collect our bags, once out of the airport our driver was a no show and we had to arrange a taxi to our hotel.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Dear, we hope that you should be honest with your story. Yes you were disapointed just because you made it disappointing. You booked a flight but just gave your name and landing time (no contact number, no hotel name for the drop-off, no flight number so we cannot know where to wait for you, domestic or international arrival). We sent our messages via the app asking for flight number but no response. The worst thing was that you just called us 2 hour after the flight landed to ask where the driver was. In stead of blaming, you should learn how to be more responsible and how to manage the work. Good luck!
Very good experience. The driver was very professional and car was very clean. The ride was good and we arrived on time without any issues. The driver helped load and unload the luggage and was very helpful.
Great easy pickup. Nice car. Good driver. Will definitely rebook in the future. We had 6 adults, 4 big bags, 2 golf bags, 4 cabin bags. All fit nicely
Prepaid for a noon pickup, but no car by 12:30. Couldn’t contact local company via WhatsApp, but a local woman assisted and got through to them. Had no record of reservation! They did send a driver who had some difficulty locating our hotel. The ride was rather harrowing but we arrived without incident. Not a satisfactory shuttle experience in general.

Dear,
It is a pity that you were not happy with the service. However, you should ask yourselves why it happened instead of giving such a dishonest feedbacks. You booked an airport pickup at 12PM but gave no information except your name (no flight number, no hotel name for drop off, no contact number...). Our team sent you messages several times via the app asking for the information but no replies from you. In Noi Bai airport, there are 2 terminals (domestic and international arrivals). Our driver did not know where to wait for you and he chose to wait at the interantional arrival. You had our WhatsApp contact but you did not send any message. Luckily, you gave our contact to a local woman at the airport and she helped call us. She gave us your contact and we easily found you on WhatsApp then sent you WhatsApp messages. And then and our driver met you 3 minutes after that. We hope you should learn how to book the service online properly.
Thank you!
Some confusion with meeting as the driver had the wrong name - but he contacted us on whatsapp and we were able to find each other. (airport has wifi). The rest of the trip was smooth and we would book again.
Easy to find the driver, but not to communicate with him. The vehicle, an SUV, was dirty outside and a bit shabby inside. But if you’re tired, and you want to avoid the aggressive cabbies at the airport, it’s a reasonable solution.
Smooth pick up, beautiful car, professional driver. He knew the best route to take us. Zero problems, all went well.
seamless experience of booking till drop off... Flight was late but still no issues.. The driver was ready for us and the car was clean neat and had enough space for luggage.
Seamless, straightforward, very easy and efficient. Communication was a breeze. The driver was kind, courteous and professional.
Very poor experience and the driver picked up some parcels in the way to deliver to others . Took a long ride to hotel . Not friendly and professional . I won’t recommend
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Dear,
We are sorry to hear this. However, we hope your review should be honest. You booked a car for your customers but you saved the budget in a wrong way. The group has 5 people and you book our car (MPV/SUV). The car fit 5 people but they brought 6 big suitcases, plus 5 carry-on suitcases and 5 handbags. Obviously, the car could not fit all (You should book a van which is 10 USD more expensive than a car). Your information "the driver picked up some parcels in the way to deliver to others" was totally wrong. Indeed, the car could not fit all, so your customers asked us to arrange an extra car to carry their lugguage and they paid 12 USD extra. They had a international arrival and obviously they would have too much lugguage. You are also an operator and you should know this and should not save in this way.
We hope that you should not do this for your future customers.
Thanks
excellent journey, even when I inputted the correct hotel we got to our destination. Easy trip, we enjoyed
Good service. No problem. They were kind and fast. I hope they get more customers because they did a great job.
I arrived and there was no driver. I contacted them by WhatsApp. And the driver was there within 10 minutes.
Non English speaking driver although ticket said there would be.
No name board held up so we refused to jump into a car that was not clear to be Hanoi Transfer. Many hagglers around the exit terminal.
No answer to my 2 phone calls.
Eventually we were picked up by the driver who held up the name sign.

Dear cusromers,
We are sorry to hear your story. Indeed, You booked for an airport pickup but you gave no flight number, no contact except the landing time 14:30. We sent a message through the app asking you for the flight number so that we could know where to meet you (at the domestic or international terminal). However, we got no response. Our driver waited for you since 14:30 at the international terminal and could not see you. We decided to let him leave after 2.5hours waiting. Approximate 17:00, we got a call from a person saying you were waiting at the airport but no driver. We talked to you and explained that the driver left after 2.5 hours there. You said your flight delayed and kept asking that why the driver did not wait for you. We again explained that you did not give us the flight number so we could not know how long it was delayed. Eventually, we still helped you to look for another car at the airport (because we thought you may have a mistake in giving details in the booking). After 5 minutes, the car arrived but then again complained that the car was not a brand new car as you expected. We again helped to find another car. We think that you should have apologized us for the missed information instead of writing some words in a story with much of missing information. We hope you will learn more about making online reservations.
Good lucks!
Apparently the provider tried to contact us about pickup details while we were still in the air and was upset that we didn't respond. We had to call them on arrival to get someone to the airport. Not impressed.
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Dear customers,
As a professional operator, we always want to bring good services to our customers. We feel said and shocked about what you wrote. Indeed, you booked an airport ride but gave no information except arrival time (no flight number, no contact, no hotel name...). We sent you a message via the app to ask for your flight number and hotel location in Hanoi but we got no resonse from you. Then we left another message saying "if no flight number, the ride could be not successful because we could not know you would land at the domestic or internatipnal terminal' Obviously, it was true and it doesn't mean we were upset. And as a result, you landed at the internarional terminal while our driver were waiting at the domestic. Until then you called us to ask where the driver was. We told you to wait 5 minutes so that we informed the driver to move to your place. You said "not impressed" and we understand that. However, your booking without detailed information was really "impressive". We think that you should learn how to say thanks instead of complaining in some situations. We hope that you should be more careful in giving more details when making any booking so that you will get a sooth service.
Thank you!
The provider made no attempt to communicate prior to the designated pick up time and ultimately was a no-show.
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Hi,
We are sorry to hear this. The problem is not from us but from you or the third party you booked with. We could not pick you up not because of our no-show but because of no information for your booking except your name and pickup time. You booked an airport pickup but gave no flight number, no drop off addrees, no contact. We mentioned clearly that customers need to give us flight number so that we can know where to wait for you at the domestic or international arrival lobby but you gave nothing. Further more, you have the local operator in your voucher but you did not give us a message or call. We hope that you should not do that way in the future.
Thank you!
Easy to organise and great communication. Good for first time visitors! We felt very comfortable with the service.
Driver never showed up or contacted me. No follow up after booking for airport transfer. I ended up booking a ride through grab.

Dear customers,
We are sorry to hear this. We have checked and found out that you booked with VietJet airlines. Your flight number changed and you did not update to us. We tried to connect you via the number but could not because you gave a wrong contact. Our driver arrived on time and waiting 2 hours but could not see you. And your new flight landed 1 hour later since our driver left. You WhatsApp us to say you were at the airport and noboby picked up. We explained the situation and to you we would help to arrange another and it would arrive in 20 minutes. You said you could not wait and took grab. We hope that you should be more careful in case the train or flight changed. You should contact and inform the provider.
Thank you!
As i dont have a lot time to catch the shared shuttle departure time i asked if they can wait for me a bit and they said they cant wait even a bit they depart sharp and then they were late for 40 minutes and they did not let me know this in advance and kept me stressed
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Dear,
We are sorry to hear this. As a professional provider, we always try our best to make the ride smooth. We understand that you felt stressed but we already made the ride successful even the problem was not caused by our team. Your flight changed to a new flight number but you did not update. The new flight landed 2 hours later than the original flight you gave. After waiting 2 hours, our driver left. Once we received the call from you, we already helped to find another car nearby and the ride was successful. Indeed we had the right to refuse the late arrive withour prior notice. We still helped and you should thanks us.
Good luck!
We were delayed in Immigration on arrival late in the evening in Vietnam for 1.5 hours and the driver waited for us. We were so grateful!!
Very trustable easy & Convenient to have my Puck Up. I strongly recommend you to book you transport, mainly, is this your first time visiting Hanoi 😊
Excellent car service. They contacted me the day befor both via email and WhatsApp. Driver arrived on time to our hotel for pickup.
