Transport - How to get in/out of Mui Ne

Rent a car, minibus or bus

This is the most comfortable transportation method to come to Mui Ne. A good trick is to rent a mini-bus at almost the same cost as a car and to share it with friends. The prices varies but should be around 140 USD for a round trip for a 4 seats car and 190 USD for a round trip with a mini-bus. Note that in reality, you pay per trip!
