The travel time by bus or limousine is approximately 2 to 2.5 hours. This fast travel time is achieved by utilizing the Phap Van - Cau Gie expressway. The journey usually includes a short 15-minute rest stop for bathroom breaks.

However, please note that the Ninh Binh train station is about 6-8 kilometers away from popular tourist areas like Tam Coc.
