No problem, but you will be approached many times by xe om (motorcycle taxi) drivers as well as a few cyclo (cycle rickshaw) guys. You don't want to use a cyclo (yes, they do look interesting), but you'd be asking for trouble since the price they quote is not the price they will demand! If you get tired and want a cab, use Vinasun or Mai Linh only.
