🛵 Getting Around Haiphong & Useful Info 🗺️

🚖 By Motorbike Taxi (Xe Ôm)

Zip through the streets of Haiphong the local way! Xe ôm (motorbike taxis) are everywhere in the city center and are perfect for quick trips 🚦. Though much of central Haiphong is walkable, hopping on a xe ôm saves time — and adds a bit of fun to your journey 🏍️.

🚕 By Taxi

Prefer comfort? Taxis are easy to flag down across the city. Two reliable services are:

  • Haiphong Taxi 📞 0225 383 8383

  • Mai Linh Taxi 📞 0225 383 3833

⚠️ Keep in mind: Haiphong is more spread out than you might expect, so fares can add up quickly if you’re covering long distances. Always ask for the meter to be turned on or agree on a price in advance!
