Does Grab work in Ho Chi Minh?

Yeah, Grab’s totally a thing in Ho Chi Minh. Used it loads myself, like all the time when I was there last summer, visiting my sister, Anh. Super handy. Got me everywhere, from District 1, which is where, like, all the tourist stuff is, right? To, like, District 7, where Anh lives, way out there. Totally different vibe. Remember one time, needed to get to Tan Son Nhat, the airport? Grab was there. Think I even used GrabBike once, which was… interesting. Hot, though. Sweaty. But quick. Remember thinking, gotta get a banh mi after this ride. District 3 has awesome banh mi, by the way. Grab works pretty much everywhere in the city, think I even used it once at, like, 2 AM, haha. Crazy late. Always available. Pretty sure it’s 24/7. Makes things so easy. So much easier than, like, regular taxis, you know? Ugh, those are a nightmare to haggle with.

• Grab works in Ho Chi Minh City (and lots of other Vietnamese cities).
• Available basically 24/7.
• Can use it to get to the airport (Tan Son Nhat).
• GrabBike is an option (but can be hot).
• Easier than flagging down regular taxis.
• Operates in Hanoi, Da Nang, Da Lat, Nha Trang, etc. This is where all the tourists go, its crazy!
• District 1 is the main tourist area in HCMC.
• District 7 is more residential.
• District 3 has good banh mi. Just sayin’.

Can you get a Grab from Danang airport to Hoi An?

Yes, you can Grab a ride!

Think of it: Da Nang airport to Hoi An is like hopping from, say, Newark to… well, a way cooler Hoboken. Grab’s there, a chariot awaiting your command.

The damage? Expect a breezy 250,000 – 400,000 VND in a car. Cheap! Motorbike? Cheaper still, if you fancy wind-whipped hair and a brush with destiny (helmet included, maybe).

Booking? The Grab app, your trusty steed, does the trick. Post-arrival booking is typical.

Pre-booking? Only if you’re that important, or if it’s Tet. Otherwise, chill, you’ll get a ride.

• The VND vs. USD thing: Don’t sweat the small stuff. Seriously, it’s like worrying about pennies when you’re about to find a twenty.

• Da Nang Airport (DAD): You know, the place with planes. Obvious, right? But sometimes you gotta spell it out.

• Hoi An’s ancient town: Picture it: yellow walls, lanterns…Instagram gold. You’ll see what I mean.

• Peak times: Everyone else also wants a Grab then. Be smart.

• Grab, the app: You’ve heard of it? If not… are you living under a rock? (I’m kidding! Mostly.)

Is it possible to order food using Grab taxi?

Grab? Food? Like peanut butter and… durian? A surprisingly delightful combination. You absolutely can order food through Grab. They didn’t become a Southeast Asian titan by just driving people around. Think of it as a personal concierge service… but, you know, cheaper.

• Food delivery: Their GrabFood service is basically your stomach’s new best friend.
• Groceries: Need milk at 2 AM? GrabMart. Seriously.
• Ride-hailing: The OG Grab experience. From scooters to fancy cars. Your chariot awaits.

They basically conquer a new market segment every Tuesday. Who knows what they’ll deliver next? My firstborn? (Just kidding… mostly). They dominate across eight countries. I once saw someone order a single banana via Grab. Commitment. I admire that. Though, personally, I’d go for the whole bunch. More potassium. My doctor says I need more potassium. And maybe less durian. But I love durian. It’s a complex relationship.

Grab’s reach: Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Myanmar. They practically own Southeast Asia. I’m half-convinced they’ll start delivering oxygen next. “GrabAir”? Has a ring to it.

What is the local delivery app in Vietnam?

Hot. Hanoi. August 2023. Sweltering. Needed pho. Badly. Grab. Everywhere. Green shirts. Whizzing by. Phone dead. 1%. Panic. Found a convenience store. Charged enough. Ordered. Beef pho. Extra chili. Delivered. Fast. Like, crazy fast. Saved me. Grab is king here. No question. Saw a Loship rider too. Not as many. Now, ShopeeFood ads everywhere. Think they’re pushing hard. Baemin too. Orange. But Grab. Still dominates.

• Grab: Dominant. Ubiquitous. See them constantly.
• ShopeeFood: Growing. Lots of promotions.
• Baemin: Orange. Around, but not as much as Grab.
• Loship: Saw one. Maybe they do other stuff too?

Got my pho. Life is good. Traffic is nuts. Motorbikes. Millions. Grab navigates it best. They just know. Hanoi traffic is another beast. Crazy hot. Need more pho.
