Transport to Hoi An
Had a great experience with Kent Hoang from Da Nang Airport to Hoi An. He was courteous, friendly and spoke very good English. He gave us some pointers on things to do in and around Hoi An. In fact, his wife is a performer in the Hoi An Memories show and that was fantastic. A huge production that was pretty spectacular. Would see it again thanks to Kent.

The best driver and company
The contact person in a office was very helpful and the driver Mr. TU (Kent Hoang) is the best. He is not only a good driver but also helped us in many things such as to find the right food and treated us like he was a tour guide. Thank you very much for the hospitality.

Safe and punctual trip with great staff
My son and I travelled a full day with Kent and a guide. It was a wonderful day. Kent is a very safe driver, has a very friendly personality and speaks very good English and gave us numerous tipps and pointed out sites on the way back after our guide had left us. Also our guide can be fully recommended. His English was very good, he showed us great places and we had very nice and interesting discussions with him.A side plus: we even saw seldom monkeys on the trip!

Great service car!
Great car service, very convenient to contact driver via whats app. Mr. Kent our driver has very good serviced mind, friendly, and arrived on time. Thanks for your service.
We had a fantastic experience with VM Car. Tired of trains and buses, we decided to hire a car to transfer from Hoi An to Phong Nha. Mr Henry, our driver, is courteous, friendly and most importantly a safe and excellent driver. Henry was attentive to everything and his english is great. He told us about the area and made sure we knew what we were passing. What was initially a one off with VM Car company has now become our go to. I can’t recommend them enough. It is so much more comfortable and very affordable than mass transit.

We used service transfer Hoi An to Phong Nha by private car on 24th August for a family of five. We were picked up at 7:30 am and arrived at 6 pm. It is a long trip so wanted to break it up with delightful stops on the way. Our driver Anthony Mai had good English, was very helpful and drove safely. The car was free wifi enabled which helped keep our boys occupied during the trip. The highlight was stop at citadel of Hue. A huge and stunning sight. My boys enjoyed watching the Top Gear Vietnam special whilst travelling across the Hai Van pass.

We spent a day travelling from Hoi An to Phong Nha by private car with driver Tony Nguyen. We’ve had some transfers with other companies throughout our weeks in central of Vietnam, and Tony was by far the sure best driver we’ve had thus far. Tony was amazingly knowledgeable about all the places we were driving through, including places to visit, points of interest, the history and perfect recommendations for places to eat.
He navigating some quite busy highways easily, was also a very safe driver. We were able to stop a few times at pleasant places, and get nice views especially on the Hai Van Pass. Above all, we found Tony to be so truly friendly and willing to help us with advice and information. He made our long trip seem to go by much quicker. We would highly recommend driver Tony and the transport service, and will be request for him when we return to Vietnam in the future!

We booked a car to take us from Hoi An to Phong Nha with various stops along the way – Hai Van Pass (beautiful views), Lang Co Beach and Marble Mountains. Top Nguyen, our driver, also kindly stopped at the Lap An lagoon for us to have a coffee. At Marble Mountain we took an elevator up to Ngu Hanh Son Pagoda (15.000 VND) and were amazed at the wealth of buddhas, pagodas and caves to explore. Many stairs to climb but well worth the effort!
The several stops made the trip very enjoyable and Top Nguyen drove very safely in a very comfortable, air conditioned SUV. The weather was pouring with rain when we arrived at Phong Nha so we didn’t get to say a proper goodbye and thank you to Top for a very happy day.

We hired a SUV from Hoi An to Phong Nha caves. It took 8 hours via the Hai Van pass only stopping for a coffee and later a quick local lunch. They had wanted to give us a tour of Paradise cave as part of the car hire but we just wanted to get to our hotel and meet our friends. Paradise Cave was great but sore legs next day! On the way back we stopped at the Hue Imperial Citadel for 2 hours in 37 degree heat, then went to a beautiful garden restaurant for lunch which thankfully was air conditioned to reduction our body temperature. Then we went directly through the tunnel to Hoi An ancient town. It was very slow through Da Nang city ..it was a Friday night and the finals of the Fireworks competition! So all up that took 10.5 hours. Nick and Loc Nguyen were our drivers and they were very good and obliging. English excellent too. Highly recommended.

My husband and I booked Hoi An to Phong Nha transfer with a variety of must-see destinations on the way and I got a strong impression of Hai Van Pass, the border of Hue, the former imperial capital with an enormous qualities of rich cultural heritage, and Danang, one of the most liveable residential areas Central. Oh là là! It was stunning! Thanks to Vu, we knew about the interesting information about the stops. For me, he is a kind tour guide event though, in actual fact, he is an experienced driver. I highly recommend Vu and VM Car as a good choice for your getaways in the Central.
