With the introduction of the Expressway, the distance between the two cities has reduced from 180km to just 130km, which has significantly reduced the travel time to only 2.5 hours.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Distance_from_Hanoi_to_Halong_Bay\"><\/span>Distance from Hanoi to Halong Bay<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin: 10.2pt 0in 10.2pt 0in;\"><strong>Distance from Noi Bai Airport (HAN) to Halong Bay<\/strong>:<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin: 10.2pt 0in 10.2pt 0in;\">Noi Bai International Airport is located approximately 30 km (19 miles) northwest of Hanoi&#8217;s city center, and around 160 km from Halong Bay. This airport is the most popular option for international travelers heading to Halong Bay. You can get to Halong Bay directly from Noi Bai Airport by taking a quick shuttle bus or seaplane transfer. However, there are other options that may be more convenient for foreign visitors, such as Van Don International Airport (50 km away from Halong City) and Cat Bi International Airport (44 km away from the city).<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin: 10.2pt 0in 10.2pt 0in;\"><strong>Distance from Hanoi city center to Halong Bay:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin: 10.2pt 0in 10.2pt 0in;\">The approximate distance between Hanoi city center and Halong Bay is around 130 km and it takes only around 2,5 hours to get to Halong from Hanoi city center with the help of the Expressway. So most travelers spend a day exploring Hanoi before traveling to Halong Bay on the next day.<\/p>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bhayacruises.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/hanoi-to-halong-bay-map.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1381px) 100vw, 1381px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bhayacruises.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/hanoi-to-halong-bay-map.png 1381w, https:\/\/bhayacruises.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/hanoi-to-halong-bay-map-300x233.png 300w, https:\/\/bhayacruises.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/hanoi-to-halong-bay-map-768x597.png 768w, https:\/\/bhayacruises.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/hanoi-to-halong-bay-map-1024x796.png 1024w\" alt=\"hanoi to halong bay map\" width=\"1381\" height=\"1073\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p><em><strong>Disclaimer:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\r\n<p><em>While every effort and care is taken in preparing the content of this site, Bhaya Cruises disclaim all warranties, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, or adequacy of the information in any of the content.

They\u2019re not only more affordable but also have the capacity to accommodate larger luggage, making them ideal for group travelers.<\/p>\r\n<p>There are two main ways to catch a bus from Noi Bai Airport to Halong Bay:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Airport Shuttle Bus: Anbasco Noibai Services operates shuttle buses directly from the airport to Halong Bay. One-way tickets start at 290,000 VND per passenger.<\/li>\r\n<li>Public Bus and Private Service: Another option is to take public bus number 17, which runs daily from 5:10 AM to 10:00 PM, and get off near Gia Lam Bus Station. From there, it\u2019s a short walk to the station where you can buy tickets for private bus services like Dai Phat, Quy Ngoc, and Hai Phuong. Ticket prices range between 100,000 and 200,000 VND per person.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> Most buses operate during daylight hours.

So, how much does a taxi from Hanoi to HaLong Bay cost? For a group of four, the fare typically ranges from 1.3 million to 1.5 million VND. If you&#8217;re traveling with a larger party, a 7-seater taxi is a more economical option, costing around 1.8 million VND for the journey.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Travel by Limousine<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Limousines with 9 seats have become a popular option among both international and local travelers, thanks to their compact size, faster travel times, and limited passenger numbers. Recommended services include Co To Limousine and Tam Bao Anh Limousine, both departing from Pillar 9, Level 1, Terminal A, T1, at Noi Bai Airport. Limousine fares generally fall between 400,000 and 450,000 VND per trip.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_for_Traveling_from_Hanoi_to_Halong_Bay\"><\/span>Tips for Traveling from Hanoi to Halong Bay<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p><em><b>For Independent Travelers and Backpackers:<\/b><\/em><\/p>\r\n<p>If you&#8217;re a solo traveler or on a tight budget, the most cost-effective way to reach Halong Bay from Hanoi is by taking a shuttle bus.
