If you are a foreigner, then here are some things you have to keep in mind.

Official

In Vietnam, there are two kinds of Taxi systems that operate around Vietnam, and it’s important that foreigners are wary of these in order to prevent any form of issue, and also to make the entire experience worthwhile. The “official” system is the better preferred, with low rates and transparent calculations, as well as is able to provide quality services to its clients.

Unofficial

This is the kind of taxis you ought to avoid whenever you travel around Vietnam. This is because these people are usually individuals, who have little respect to traffic rules, especially those that have to do with speed.

Over-all, the quality of these Taxis to airport are rather poor, and would not do anything to contribute to a better travel experience in Vietnam.
