There is an extensive network of buses in Vietnam, with modern air-conditioned services running along Highway One between the main cities, including Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Dalat.

You can purchase a bike in the bigger cities, but if you’re planning a long-distance trip, you may want to bring your own. Visitors to the north of Vietnam shouldn’t miss a boat trip around the islands of Halong Bay, and you can also take day trips along the Mekong Delta.
