There is no shuttle bus from the airport to city center, whereas, public bus is available outside the airport’s area. So that, taxi and private car must be the best convenience transfer from Ho Chi Minh airport (former Saigon airport) to city center.
Airport taxi can be easily taken outside arrival hall at rate around 8 US$/taxi to dist 1. However, its quality is indeed not good condition, old and dirty looking. To save fuel, taxi driver normally not turn on air-conditioner that brings hot atmosphere in car. Luckily, taxi drivers are quite nice enough but sometimes they have to fighting each other to get customers as too much taxi operating at the airport. Because of taxi cost not fix but following meter, so you may be paid more expense by dishonest drivers running around rather than short way to your hotel.
Private car service offered fix price that will make your peace of mind, especially landing in evening. Multiple choice from executive to stretched limousine, 24hours English Speaking support, high standard fleets and helpful driver will make your arrival unforgettably.
