# About VietnamTransportGuide.com

## Quick Facts

- Last checked: 2026-10-09

## What VietnamTransportGuide.com covers

Getting around Vietnam by train, sleeper bus, limousine van, plane and boat, and across its borders with Cambodia, Laos and China: which services run, when they leave, what they cost for October 2026 departures, and exactly where you board, from the station on a railway ticket to the street office a night bus leaves from.

It is based in Hanoi.

## Report a changed timetable, fare or pickup

A bus office that has moved, a fare that has gone up, a boat that no longer sails: if you have just travelled a route and a page is wrong, email **contact@vietnamtransportguide.com** with the page, what it says, what you found and when you travelled. A photo of a posted timetable or fare board helps.

## Where to check on the day

**Is my train running, and at what time?** The railway's timetable at dsvn.vn and its hotlines, 1900 0109 in Hanoi and 1900 1520 in Ho Chi Minh City.

**Which airport terminal?** Your booking, and the airport's own departures board.

**Do I need a visa?** Vietnam's e-visa site, evisa.gov.vn, and for the neighbours the pages on the Cambodia, Laos and China borders.

**Which office does my bus leave from?** Your ticket; the company's office address is printed on it.

## Common questions about this guide

### Is this an official government or railway site?

No. It has no connection to any Vietnamese government agency, the railway or any transport company. Where a fact comes from one of them, the page lists it under its sources.

### Can you change or refund a booking?

No. A booking made through a link on this site is handled by the booking site that sent your confirmation, or by the company you booked with; they are the ones who can change or refund it.

### Do bus companies or airlines pay to be listed?

No. There is no paid placement, and no company has a say in what a page says about it.

### Can I quote a page?

A short quote with a link back is fine. Republishing a page wholesale is not; the terms page has the detail.
