Vietnam Overland Transport Tips & Discount

We've lived in Vietnam since 2023 and overland travel is how we actually get around. If you're planning hops between cities, a sleeper bus, private minivan, or overnight train is often more comfortable (and more fun) than a short domestic flight, plus you skip paying for a hotel that night.

On buses, we always upgrade to the 2-row layout so the bed is actually usable. Minivans are our pick for couples or small families when we want extra space and easier toilet stops. Trains are our favorite overall: 4-berth cabins, private 2-bed rooms, or the occasional luxury option with a connected queen bed for a special trip.

Use the booking button above with code TWOPEASABROAD for money off buses, vans, and trains across Vietnam. Flights still win if you only care about speed, but we'd take the scenic overnight most of the time 🚂
