- When you travel to Ho Chi Minh City, do not damage your good impression about Viet Nam by being scammed by taxi driver at the airport. You may plan a good itinerary for a wonderful holiday and as a local Vietnamese, I make this video to give you some Tips to avoid any bad things from Taxi Problem.
There are many ways to go to the center of Sai Gon ( Ho Chi Minh City) such as a airport bus, taxi or grab taxi. However, many tourists get confused by some fake taxis at the airport which look quite similar to reliable ones, that makes everything worse if you jump on the wrong one.
Just watch this video for your safe arrival in Ho Chi Minh to start your amazing tour in Viet Nam.

Hello .. After the covid wave gets over here, flights starts from Bangalore I will be there .. hope I may get guidance and help from you to cover your lovely country and back with memories for long time..
I am coming to Vietnam in March for three weeks to play golf, I need a ride to golf courses but don't want to use the private limosine cars or taxis, I think they are too expensive. Any suggestions?
If you want to save a ton of dinero, just take airport bus 109. It costs less than $2 bucks to Pham Ngu Lao and Ben Thanh Market.
Is there a land trip from Ho Chi Minh city to Vientiane , Laos?
How close dose the bus get to walking street area?
Hi. Is sim card store open at the airport at around 1 am?
What's the easiest way to get to District 5 from the airport? Is there a bus that goes there?
Never ... never take a taxi at any airports in any countries because you will get scam. Period. They are for rich people/tourists. Use trains or buses if you want to save a few bucks.
Very helpful, but I'm wondering: do I ask the taxi driver how much the ride will cost before I get in? Is there a set price? Or do I ask them to turn on the meter (I've see this recommended in other places)? Do many taxi drivers speak enough English to understand if I ask "how much" or "turn on the meter, please" in English? I'm trying to learn some Vietnamese, Khmer, and Thai for my trip, but finding pronunciation very difficult so not sure I will be able to learn much before I arrive. Also, should I tip taxi drivers like I would in the US? If so, how much is appropriate?
There are many taxi driver wearing white shirt at arrival hall. Do not take any of them. Just turn left and go directly to taxi stand at Pole 1. They are reliable ones and meter fee. Usually, it costs about less then 15$ to the center and you can give them few bucks as well. Tipping is more common in Viet Nam now. Cheers
do shops,taxis and buses accept debit/credit cards?
Thx mate
Is there and access for wheelchair
Where to get a grab taxi at the airport? Is there a certain location?
Taking grab taxi in the late night from Airport to Hotel is safe ?
Super!!
Thanks for sharing and hope you and your friends have a good holiday in our homeland
i need a video about how to avoid robbery , no kidding
2017 i got robbed in saigon , but lucky i dint put any money in my bag
simon I will do that, mate. I feel bad when hearing some story like yours. How many time have you been to Viet Nam?
Thanks for this very helpful video! One question - to use Grab, do you need to use a Vietnamese phone or Vietnamese SIM card? Or can you use a phone from the U.S.?
You can use either or. As long as your US SIM provider allows you to roam within SE Asia. But to be very honest, purchasing a Vietnam SIM for $8-10 will save you the headache for once you return home and you see the roaming charges on your cell phone bill. Right now, majority of the SIMs will give you unlimted data for a month.
@@tmackly I know a guy that thought he could use his USA cell in SE Asia at regular rates... WRONG!!!!
Scam happen in every countries around the World. That Including the United States, Europe, and many countries around the World. But in United States, Europe, and many country around the World. Thieves and robbers don't scam but they pull out weapons and threaten your life. How safe is your country compare to Vietnam?
How about in the middle of the night about 1:30 AM? Arrival VISA open 24/7? I am guessing the airport is open 24/7?
Thank you for a detailed and helpful video!
For sure the airport is always open. You just get a taxi at pole 1. Or book Grab if you have the app.
Grab Taxi is very popular in Viet Nam
It takes until 4:48 until it gets to the point of the video....
hi...is yellow bus 109 available in airport going to district 1?
It's better to get a taxi bro
How about Hanoi airport?
Hi there, is it easy to use grab car to travel around Ho Chi Minh city? Many thanks..
Yes/ it is very easy to take A GRAB
My expected time of arrival in Ho Chi Minh airport is 1:30am and I'm afraid to travel to the City at that time even in a legitimate taxi. Can I stay in the airport and wait till 5:00am?
What do you mean, bro?
can u be my tour guide if i come to vietnam? how can i contact u?
You can contact me as well. +84937281428 (Whatsapp ). Cheers
Can I pay the fare for the bus by card?
No/ you can not/ better by cash
My first trip to Saigon and vietnam. I took the taxi from the airport. Where you make the queue. I knew the price was around 200000 dong. I was watching the meter and just before arrive to my hotel i had a look outside. When i look again the meter the price was 500000 dongs. The taxi scammer shouting at me when i asked him why it was so expensive. I was so tired by my trip that i paid him but it didn’t hapened a second time as i used grab after that. Theses taxi scamers doing this since many years but the vietnamese government do nothing. What a shame! I live 20 years in thailand and it’s never hapened to me there. There is many scammers in vietnam so be aware. Thailand is so much better in every points. Vietnam👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
I saw police brutality. I don’t know what happened but I saw the victim push an officer and then the officers when haywire
It sometimes happened like that, when did you go to Viet Nam?
just take grab. price is determined on the app, no scam.
