Poor communication. At no point did I know what was going on.

Perfect pick up and almost on time arrival. They took me to a wrong dock, but I'm sure that if I had checked, they'd bring me at the right place. Very fast driving.

The first bus was fine, but then shortly before our arrival we had to change bus and from there on it just went downhill. the driver drove past our stop even though we communicated to the driver on the first bus where we were staying. One would assume that the drivers would communicate about that. He then proceeded to try and somewhat kick us out somewhere which we refused, we proceeded to tell him our designated location and he said okay. After that we drove to the harbour where all of the cruise ships start. Where again he wanted to kick us off the bus, we told him that this is not where we are staying and it is so much further away from our hotel then when we originally changed buses. He barely even looked at us and just said stop here, stop here. We told him no and even translated it into Vietnamese so we could communicate but he wouldn’t even look at the message. After he took our bags out of the van we didn’t really have another choice than to get an extra taxi to our hotel. Pleasant experience until we had to change buses. Lack of communication and patience.

The driver drive quite aggressively and didn't take the highway, which caused delays

The van came on time and the van is as comfortable as expected. It arrived at the destination basically on time. The bad things are, the driver kept talking on the phone loudly, which was quite annoying, and he drove a little crazy.

It was my second Trip with 12 Go and DMC Saigon Taxi and I can really recomment it. The driver was friendly and on time. He was 10 minutes earlier and helped us with the luggage.

The driver was late to pick us up (we were the first stop on his journey) and also made several stops along the way to pick up packages and drop them off on our journey which resulted in us being over an hour late to our destination vs the arrival time we were told upon booking. This was a stress for us as we had a time constraint for boarding our cruise in Ha Long Bay as did almost everyone else in our limousine.
