DIFFERENT WAYS TO GO TO MONG CAI

1/ GO TO BUS STATION BY YOURSELF

This is the best option for you if you would like to save money. You can take a taxi to My Dinh, Giap Bat, and Nuoc Ngam bus station to book ticket. Bus timetable is very flexible. Purchasing bus ticket by yourself, it means you have to arrange verything you do by yourself: taxis, contact driver, finding the right bus among hundreds buses in station... It is not very easy when you dont speak the language and local people here dont speak English too.
!!! Warning:
- At bus stations, there are many gangster men who are willing to cheat you to get you on terrible or wrong bus, you have no idea where you are going to as you can not communnicate to local people. Till you realise it, you are far away from the big city.
- There are a lot of buses, neither do you know them, nor do they know you. If there is anything happens to your belongings, you have noone to ask for help.
- During festivals time in Vietnam (Independent holiday, King ceremony holiday, New Year holiday...), local people often plan their holiday in advance. Bus tickets to Halong Bay mostly fully booked very soon. Therefore it is difficult for you to purchase ticket by yourself if you have a narrow plan.

2/ HANOI TO MONG CAI BY MOTORBIKE

You can rent motorbike in any travel agencies in Hanoi to slowly driving to Mong Cai city and back . For a good quality for motorbike, it costs about 10 USD per day which can be for 2 people sit on. You should drive slowly to enjoy landscapes and stop for photos shooting on the way.
Note: You should give your passport to agency, read the contact carefully and choose good motobike, furthermore you should check careful with their mechanic service conection in case your motobike is broken on the way.
!!! Warning: You should be carefully before renting because roads to Mong Cai are very dangerous with traffic jam, bad road.

3/ HANOI TO MONG CAI BY TOURIST BUS

You can book and join a tourist bus from companies who organise tours to Mong Cai but you have to leave early in the morning around 7.30 - 8.30 am. Because tour from Hanoi to Mong Cai tour companies always give priority to people who book a package tour than people only book bus ticket. Therefore, sometimes you can book - sometimes you can not. And it can be cancelled in a short advance when they cant collect enough customers to make their tour run.

4/ HANOI TO MONG CAI BY PRIVATE CAR

This option seems to be the most convenient one for you if you have a group of at leasts 3 - 4 people join with you. If not it is kind of very expensive to go alone or too small group.
