Hanoi Airport to Cao Bang?
 
Hello,

What is the best way to travel from Hanoi airport to Cao Bang? We would prefer taking a private transportation or smaller limousine type vehicles that have better seats. I looked for options on Vexere for Limousine. They show good reviews on Vexere but most of them have either have very bad reviews or no reviews at all on google/facebook.

Any recommendations for good limousine companies or private transportation companies?

Thanks.

It is going to cost you a bundle by car :because it has to go back to Hanoi . 5-hour ride on good road by car, 7 by bus..

A friend who recently took a trip mentioned using Grab Taxi for transportation, but his destination was not Cao Bang. When I asked him about it, he said Grab Taxi likely does not operate in Cao Bang.

So your point is don't use Grab to go to Cao Bang?

The real point is that Cao Bang only does not make much sense As a matter of fact, what is missing to comment accurately is where he goes AFTER Cao Bang. Going only up there = missing the fantastic northern mountains in the regions of Ha Giang (Dong Van - The most scenic route in Vietnam - Bac Ha and Sapa)

The main point is that you need a MINIMUM of 2 days : Day 1 : Hanoi-Cao Bang + visit (covered and open-air markets and Victory Monument); Day 2 : grotto and Ban Gioc Waterfalls + return Hanoi
