Transport Methods
Grab A Cab
Catch A Flight
Set Sail
The most convenient way to get from A to B is to take a taxi. Using apps like Grab and inDrive are a popular choice when in Vietnam.
When it came to island hopping I quickly found that 12GO Asia was perfect. The app allows you to book ferries and speedboats to get from one island to another.
Long distance travel was made much easier when I was able to catch a flight. The app I used was Skyscanner and they offered several different airlines with various flight times.
