Travel Tips

Take the train. Get a A/C sleeping compartment and enjoy the ride. You will see a lot of beautiful scenery. Book your tickets early or you might not get a berth.

I would by my ticket in advance from Nha Trang to SaiGon; so you make sure you can leave when you chose too.

The bus is a very uncomfortable trip and you wont enjoy being on it for that length of time.

Cheers.

The safest way by a long shot is to travel by train.

The train takes around 33hrs from Saigon to Hanoi (if all goes to plan!).

You should take a train from Hanoi. Hanoi-Nha Trang (pretty take time 15hrs? but you can enjoy on the way) then stop in Nha Trang. From Nha Trang take a bus to Saigon (4-5hrs) or you can stop in Phan Thiet, Mui ne (2hrs from Nha Trang) by bus. That's way cheap and you can see many things along form Hanoi-Saigon
Shouldn't take bus from Hanoi-Nha trang as a bit unsafe
Enjoy your trip!
