Getting Around Vietnam
You can catch a bus from Hanoi's My Dinh Bus station to Ha Long Bay (Bai Chay) for 100,000VD. It takes about 4 hours.
Ha Long Bay to Hue
It would seem there is no direct route here, and we must go back to Hanoi in order to make and overnight journey to Hue. From Hanoi you can take the sleeper train (850,000VD) or a sleeper bus (560,000VD). The train takes about 13 hours and times can be found here. The bus takes 12 hours, departing at 6pm and arriving 6am. The train looks as though (via reading blogs) it is considerably more comfortable and clean, but is it worth an extra £8.40?
*Also, prices for the bus vary, it may be even cheaper!

Hue to Da Nang
Take the local bus from the bus station, no need to book, just turn up. The journey takes 2-3 hours, and costs 40-70,000VD depending on class.
Da Nang to Hoi An
This is a short hour long bus journey from the local bus station in Da Nang and costs 40,000VD.
Hoi An to NHA Trang
Information is a bit scarce here, as it seems most people go back to Da Nang and get a train from there. You can however catch an overnight bus (departs 19.00 arrives 07.00) via Sinh costing 300,000VD.
NHA Trang to Da Lat
It is about a 3-4 hour bus ride from NHA Trang to Da Lat and it costs 145,000VD. This usually includes hotel pick up.
Da Lat to Ho Chi Minh City
This is quite a long bus ride, taking 7-8 hours, but it's quite cheap at 80,000 VD.
