I live in Hanoi and plan a self-guided trip to visit Bai Dinh Ancient Pagoda/Bai Dinh Pagoda (Ninh Binh) during the Lunar New Year of the Horse 2026. Transportation is now very accessible. Among many limousine companies, I searched on Vexere and found a suitable schedule with XE Vietnam. The round-trip ticket prices are quite reasonable. What I found most impressive is their shuttle service. From their office at 251 Luong Van Thang Street, Hoa Lu Ward to Bai Dinh Pagoda, Tay Hoa Lu Ward, the distance is about 20km. The company enthusiastically provided a shuttle service, even for just one person, covering a total distance of 40km, for only an additional fee of 45,000 VND. My only concern is that the company might lose money. That's the only positive thing about the shuttle service. Happy New Year to XE Vietnam! Best regards.

Way from Ninh Bình to Ha Noi was much better than other one with a company, their name I don’t want to say. No bus change, no driver changes, a company member wrote me himself (instead me running in Hanoi streets and asking local people “can you call the driver …?”. Don’t forget to pay additional money for extra service like pick up and drop off when you want. Get ready to change bus to a car in the end point of the bus. Just take your bags and seat to a car. It’s simple. And I’m appreciate a speed of bus. I’m not sure I’d it legal or not, but 100km/h is much better than 80. Thanks for your attention and sorry for my bad English (your Russian is not better I’m sure). Good luck!

Overall, the trip was nice. The driver contacted us 30 mins before he arrived at the homestay. He was a few minutes late but it’s okay. Then he drove around other homestay to pick other passengers. Then he dropped us at the office, where we all had to get out and transfer to 12 seats limousine. After 2hrs45mins, we reached our destination. It would be nice if the driver gave us more info so we have some kinda clue of what’s going on.

The bus service was punctual and well-organized. I booked the 10 a.m. departure, and the operator called the day before to confirm my booking. The driver then called the following morning sometime between 8 and 9 a.m to arrange pickup. Although the vehicle was listed as a limousine on the booking platform, I was actually picked up in a four-seater car with one other passenger. The driver drove carefully and confidently, and both the driver and the assistant were polite and friendly throughout the journey. Overall, I had no complaints, am happy with their service.

An absolutely perfect experience. The transport service provided door-to-door pick-up and drop-off, always ensuring I arrived and returned right on schedule. Many thanks to the service provider; the support staff were incredibly helpful, and the driver contacted me directly to coordinate the pick-up time. Simply excellent.

The service is excellent, and foreigners don't need to worry about it; they will provide guidance throughout the journey.

I was completely satisfied with the services the bus provided. This is the 4th time I booked this bus in advance and it can be the best bus services I have ever experienced. The driver was so nice and supportive during the trip. Although he picked me up kinda later than the fixed pick-up time, he immediately apologized me for it due to traffic congestion in the peak hour in Hà Nội so I can sympathize with him. He drove safely and we had a comfy convo about traffic in Hà Nội and Ninh Bình. Thank you for the bus!
