하노이에서 닌빈 당일치기로 가려고 하는데 기차랑 버스 중에 고민이에요. 기차는 닌빈역에서 내리는데 짱안이나 땀꼭까지는 또 이동해야 한다고 들었고, 버스는 바로 근처까지 간다고 하더라고요. 실제로 다녀오신 분들은 뭘 추천하세요? 시간도 시간인데 편한 게 제일 중요해요. 그리고 닌빈역에서 짱안까지는 그랩이 잘 잡히나요?

We booked 2 nights at a homestay in Ta Van in early December and the host just told me there is no heater in the rooms. I knew it would be chilly but I did not realise how cold mountain nights get up there. Has anyone stayed in a Sapa homestay in December without heating? Are we talking a bit fresh or actually freezing? The host says they give extra...

Okay I need to vent and also learn. Landed in Hanoi after a red eye, exhausted, and a friendly guy at arrivals said taxi to Old Quarter, fixed price. I said yes before my brain was fully on. The meter was covered with a cloth, which should have been my sign to get out, but I just sat there. 900k later I am standing outside my hotel feeling like an...

Doing Hanoi to Hue next week and I keep going back and forth. The sleeper bus is cheaper and the VIP cabins look genuinely comfortable in photos. The overnight train is the classic choice but I have heard mixed things about actually sleeping on it. Has anyone done both on this route? Which one did you arrive feeling more human on? And is the train really worth it just for...

On passe deux jours à Sapa et on veut faire une journée de trek. J'hésite entre Cat Cat, qui est juste à côté mais dont on dit qu'il est très touristique, et Lao Chai / Ta Van, qui a l'air plus authentique mais aussi plus long. Pour des marcheurs moyens, c'est faisable sans guide ou il vaut mieux en prendre un ? Et niveau difficulté, ça se compare à quoi...

We only have one free day in HCMC and want to see the Mekong Delta. Every tour company pushes My Tho, but I have read that Ben Tre is quieter and more local. The problem is most Ben Tre tours seem to be private and cost a lot more. Is the difference actually noticeable, or are both just the same coconut candy and sampan ride in the end? Has anyone...

Planning a Saturday trip to Trang An from Hanoi and I am slightly worried about the crowds. Do the boats actually sell out on weekends, or is it just a longer queue? We cannot do a weekday, so Saturday it is. Also, can you even book the boat in advance, or do you just show up and buy a ticket at the dock? Our hotel mentioned a private boat option,...

On sera à Sapa début novembre et on veut monter au Fansipan. J'ai vu qu'on pouvait acheter les billets du téléphérique en ligne à l'avance, mais je ne sais pas si ça vaut le coup ou si on peut juste les prendre sur place le jour même. Il y a une grosse différence de prix entre en ligne et au guichet ? Et en novembre, il y a du monde...

Landing in Hanoi next week and trying to figure out the SIM situation. The airport kiosks seem to charge around 300 to 350k for a tourist SIM with data. People keep saying you can get the same thing for 100 to 150k at a Viettel shop in town. Is that actually true, or is it one of those tips from 2019 that does not work anymore? We mostly need data...

Solo backpacker here, doing HCMC to Da Nang and I am weirdly tempted by the train instead of a one hour flight. The Hai Van Pass bit sounds unreal. But seventeen hours is a long time to be romantic about scenery. Is the soft sleeper actually comfortable enough to sleep, or do you arrive destroyed? Would you book the four berth cabin or pay extra for the two berth? Also...

    My thoughts on Nha Trang I'm just leaving Nha Trang after 4 days here. 4 weeks in Vietnam. I've loved every bit, except for Nha Trang. It's full of Russians, the signs are often in Russian.I never had a thing about Russians before this, but by golly, I've been bruised by them on the street, as they just push past you, no manners in giving (even a fraction), when pushing...
