Airport pick-up & airport-hotel transfer.
Welcome to Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. Our driver will pick you up at the airport and then send you to the hotel in the city center. The rest of the day is free for you.

► Travel Tips:
When your flight lands at Hanoi Noi Bai Airport (HAN), the following information will be helpful if you need to exchange currency or purchase a local SIM Card. US dollars or credit cards can be used directly in many places in Vietnam, but for convenience, you are recommended to exchange a modest amount of Vietnamese Dong in advance. It is better to tip a waiter or buy some souvenirs in Vietnamese Dong.

1. Currency Exchange
You can withdraw cashes from ATM or exchange the foreign currency at a Currency Exchange Office. There are 4 exchange windows at Terminal 2 – BIDV, Maritime Bank, VietinBank and Techcombank, which are distributed in the passing immigration, baggage claim and customs area on the 1st floor. You can exchange at any of them.

2. Buying Local SIM Card
Vietnam has three major communication operators: Viettel, Vinaphone and Mobifone. Viettel is popular with many tourists due to its wide coverage and stable network signal. A Tourist SIM Card package is priced from VND100,000 to 200,000 (USD4 to 8), valid for 7 to 30 days. According to the itinerary, you are recommended to buy a card package with 2GB data, valid for 15 days, at the price of about USD 7. By the Arrival Gate, you can see some Tourist Information Counters, and you can buy a SIM card here.
