Car rental in Vietnam

Wow... really??? Intl' driver licences are not accepted at all? Not even from neighbour countries?

Any info on the rates/day? I am planning a visit to Ho Chi Min City in October and I might need a car for 10/12 - 10/16...

How does this work, you're renting a car w/ a driver for days, 24 hours / day? Are you paying the driver or to the company you are renting from?
Also, if the payment is made to the company, how many tips should one give to the driver, and should he give daily tips?

Tell me something about tipping in Vietnam pls..

Hi norfolkjon
I have some advice for you when traveling alone

1. Consider and learn self-defense skills. For example, some basic defense moves that can help you get rid of the harasser.

2. Learn about where you will come to know what exciting things waiting for you there, things to note for the visitors.

3. Should not put a room on the ground floor and the easy way out through the window.

4. Do not open the door to people you do not know or can not determine the identity.

5. Familiar and friendly attitude, open to the reception of the hotel and ask them to confirm your arrival and departure. Give them emergency telephone numbers of family and friends.

6. Trust your intuition when to somewhere, seems to avoid dangerous places.

7. Dress like the locals, at least a little discreet and mannered. If you are a woman be aware of how women dress of the local and imitate them.

8. So walk with someone you trust. If you feel stress or anxiety it is best to try to close a certain tourist or a pedestrian to look it seems you can not go alone.

9. Do not drink or drink at least a limited way only.
