After waiting on the street corner for our limo we were so disappointed a non vip van picked us up and drove 40 minutes to be transferred to a 16 seater bus then driven to another mini bus that eventually drove to Tam Coc so very disappointed we paid for a limo and never got it

Three different people spoke to me by WhatsApp message and gave me different informations. Then when I went to the pick-up point, by my surprise a very old and uncomfortable car told us that first we ha Ve to go with him to pick up three more passengers in two different locations and then we will change to the bus I've actually booked. The car was small and uncomfortable and the luggage of all the passengers didn't fit. Then we got stuck in traffic. Completely paralyzed for over 40 minutes, the driver told us it was normal traffic in Hanoi and we asked if an alternate route was available. He told us it was the same everywhere. But, for our huge surprise after 40 minutes the driver decided to take the other route where there wasn't traffic at all and we arrive after 1 hour and 50 to the other car. And of course we arrived later to our final destination.

Great pick up to shuttle. Shuttle was cramped as some passengers bring more than 1 luggage. Drop was wasn't great. They drop me off somewhere else and tell me to walk. I get lost and have to ask for help.
