An interesting television program named "Camera Giau Kin" (Hidden camera) shows some examples of how foreign (in fact also national) tourists may be cheated by taxi drivers or "xe ôm" (rental motobiker) in Ha Noi, Vietnam.
You might not understand Vietnamese, but watching this video you can still understand the situations with their clear graphic illustration. The 'foreigners' in the video in fact are very fluent at Vietnamese but they pretend as new comers. All of the random taxi drivers and 'xe ôm' riders in this video took them around further than the actually necessary distance.
At the end of the video, they suggest tourists using Xich Lô (Cyclo) for affordable rates and convenience while sightseeing the city. In reality, I don't trust either. There are always good and bad drivers in every type of vehicles. So tourists should always need to watch out.
C'mon, it's not that bad. We do 'watch out' everytime we travel, rite?
