Good to know in Hanoi
  • Check which terminal your ticket uses: the four stations are far apart.
  • Some services from the mountains have dropped passengers on the western outskirts. Confirm the final stop when you book.
  • Noi Bai Airport has its own direct buses to several destinations, so you may not need to go into the city first.
