Share your flight number, arrival time and group size at least 48 hours ahead. We confirm which Ho Chi Minh City airport is on your ticket.
We match names on your passports, e-visas and booking, then send the meeting point and driver details.
You approve the quote; we book the airport agent and vehicle and send written confirmation.
Your agent waits before the immigration hall, guides you through to arrivals and hands you over to your driver.
Book at least 48 hours before your flight. Tan Son Nhat handles a heavy stream of long-haul and regional arrivals, and queues at immigration can build quickly when several wide-body flights land close together, typically late at night and around midday. Fast track is usually noticeably quicker at peak times, though the actual wait depends on the airport’s staffing and which lanes are open.
Need an e-visa? Start one to two weeks before you fly; we can include it in the same booking.
Tan Son Nhat sits inside the city. The international terminal is only about 7 to 8 km from District 1, but traffic decides the journey: 25 to 45 minutes depending on the time of day. The new Terminal 3, opened in 2025, serves domestic flights, so if you connect from Hanoi or Da Nang you may arrive at a different terminal from international passengers.
Long Thanh International Airport (LTH) in Dong Nai province is scheduled to start commercial operations around late 2026 with a limited number of routes, and it is much further from the city. We check the airport and terminal on your ticket before we confirm the car, so your driver waits in the right place.
From there it is a short drive to hotels around Nguyen Hue, Dong Khoi and Ben Thanh. See our pick of District 1 hotels.
Because the airport is so close to the centre, it is tempting to leave late, but rush-hour traffic on the airport roads is unpredictable. We time your hotel pick-up around your flight and the day of the week. At the terminal the agent meets you in the departures hall, helps with check-in and bag drop, and guides you to priority security and exit immigration lanes where they are available.
This works well at the end of a Mekong Delta trip or before an onward flight to Bangkok, Siem Reap or Phu Quoc.
Ho Chi Minh City is often the first or last stop on a north-to-south journey. Book fast track with our Vietnam e-visa service and we check passport, e-visa and booking details together. Travellers from the US, Canada, Australia and India need an e-visa; British passport holders currently enter visa-free for up to 45 days.
