TRAIN

There is a regular train service between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City and most cities in between. Many people like to travel the length of the country this way. Tickets allow passengers to break their journey at the major regional cities like Hue, Danang and Nha Trang. The trip from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City takes between 36 and 48 hours non-stop, depending on which service is used. Passengers can book a sleeping compartment, soft seat, or economy class.

BUS

Vietnam has a regular bus service that connects even the remotest areas of the country. It is very cheap but the emphasis is on economy rather than comfort.

TAXI

In the major cities the easiest method of transport are taxis. Most are relatively new models of car and are air-conditioned. Prices are very cheap and most trips within a city cost between US$2 and US$5. Contrast this with the price of a cyclo trip (about the same), and except for the novelty of the transport, taxis provide a better service. Tourism authorities advise tourists not to take cyclos at night.

HONDA OM

On any street corner in Vietnam, you will find men with motorcycles willing to carry you anywhere. This mode of transport is known as Honda Om or Honda Embrace. It is usually cheap and reliable although the fare should be negotiated before commencing the journey.
