Nimble motorcycle taxis, which surpass buses in speed and mobility, comprise one of the most popular modes of transportation in Vietnam, where they are known as "xe ôm". You can can get a ride simply by hailing passing operators, or by finding drivers who gather at public places such as schools, markets, hospitals, and bus and train stations. Inter-District trips should cost around VND50,000, more or less, depending on how far you are going and your negotiating ability with the xe om driver.
