Vietnam, the information guide - Getting around
By Air; Vietnam Airlines (VN). Regular services are also provided between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to Buon Ma Thuot, Dalat, Na San, Phu Quoc, Pleiku, Qui Nhon and Vinh.
By Water; A local network operates between ports. Vietnam Cruise facilities are available.
By Rail; Visitors may use the rail transport system independently or as part of a rail tour. Long-distance trains are more expensive but are faster, more reliable and more comfortable. The main rail route connects Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City and the journey can take between 30 and 40 hours.
By Road; There is a reasonable road network. Traffic drives on the right. Bus: Services are often poor and overcrowded, although long-distance buses are sometimes more modern and air-conditioned. Minibuses often run between tourist hotels in the major towns. Car hire: It is possible to hire chauffeur-driven cars. Self-drive car hire is non-existent.
Urban; There are local bus services in Ho Chi Minh City and in Hanoi. It is also possible to travel by taxi, motorbike or cyclo (cycle rickshaw; motorised version also exists).
