As one of the most important bus stations of Ho Chi Minh City, Mien Tay has buses that run to provinces in Mekong Delta such as Long An, Ca Mau, Can Tho, to name a few. The bus station has been in use since 1972.
Unlike bus stations in Hanoi, the transporting companies in the South are established with higher quality buses and more professional services. However, it is advisable to take extra caution since pick-pocketing remains prevalent. If you suspect that the drivers are not in the best shape, get off the bus and wait for the next one.
