The cost of traveling within Vietnam for three days stood at a total of $200, while a travel agency gave a trip price in Hanoi for three days. Let us examine the transportation situation in Hanoi first. The public transport is well developed in Hanoi and will encompass subways, buses, taxis, etc., all being very much accessible. For tourists, renting a motorcycle is more suitable, easy, and economical. Of course, do prepare for a trusty quality helmet before the journey.
Now for the attractions in Hanoi. Free to the public: Hoan Kiem Lake, the Ho Chi Minh mausoleum, the Thirty-Six Monuments, etc. Such paid attractions as the Jinlian Tower, West Lake Scenic Area, and others are rather cheap too.Thus, in a three-day stay in Hanoi, accommodation and meals are the two major expenses.
