    Anyone knows how much it costs by taxi from Hanoi airport to downtown? And is that easy to get a taxi there since I am travelling alone... Thanks!

    Taxi is really easy but I would not recommend (rip off).
    They normally have mini vans outside the Airport that go downtown (about 45mn) they usually take around 6 ppl and the cost is around 2 USD
    per person.

    Taxi is 10-15 usd, or at least that was the price 2 years ago (probably higher now). The taxi queque is organized but the cabs from the airport don't use the meter. There is a set price. Personally, I would use the taxi. It's about 45-60 mins to the Opera House through what appear to be the most random some back roads.
