Greetings to all, We recently concluded a marvelous trip through Vietnam and Cambodia, lasting from April 17th until May 6th. As is my usual practice, I relied on extensive reading of the forum rather than posting questions, and successfully gathered all the necessary information! Consider this post a way of giving back for the incredible assistance provided by the forum’s experts and regular contributors; thank you sincerely for sharing your...
Hello everyone, just sharing some details. Feel free to append or correct these points if necessary. I recently visited Vietnam and initially purchased an eSIM from Airalo, though the connectivity proved inconsistent at times. I subsequently bought a physical SIM card right at the airport (having flown in and out of Vietnam several times) just before the immigration checkpoints upon arrival. The cost was 350,000 VND for a plan offering...

I am departing for Hà Giang tomorrow for a slow-paced 10- or 11-day trip. I've recently heard that local buses from Hà Giang only travel to cities in different provinces. I'm sincerely hoping this isn't strictly true and that some very local means of transport is available. While I don't mind spending a few hours on a motorbike, a distance of 100km is too much for me. Since I am...
I am planning a wedding ceremony in Hoi An, with a very small guest list of approximately 15 people (immediate family only). I am aiming to minimize the cost as much as possible, so does anyone have budget-friendly suggestions or recommendations? Thank you in advance!
My wife is currently experiencing an infection and noticeable sores around one of her teeth. I urgently require recommendations for a trustworthy dental clinic in both Da Nang and Nha Trang. She previously had an issue with this specific tooth two years ago and visited a nearby hotel dental office for an examination, which unfortunately was not effective. We are currently located in Da Nang, will move to Nha Trang...

Hi everyone, We are currently thinking about flipping our trip's itinerary to begin in the central region (Hue/Hoi An) around August 17th and then gradually make our way north until September 6th. This decision is largely influenced by the average rainfall data we observed on WeatherSpark. I understand that the weather is often highly unpredictable, but given that we plan to do the Ha Giang to Cao Bang loop as...

Hey everyone, I'm new to Vietnam and currently in Hanoi. The street vendors are super friendly, but I feel like I'm constantly being approached to buy things. I don't want to be disrespectful, but sometimes I just want to walk around without feeling pressured. Is it okay to just politely say 'no' and keep walking, or is there a better way to handle it? Any advice is appreciated! I feel...
We will be visiting Ho Chi Minh City in October and are hoping to book a boat trip on the Mekong River. My husband has some difficulty with movement (relying on a cane) and poor flexibility, so we are seeking a tour that incorporates a slightly bigger vessel for a portion of the journey. Regrettably, I doubt he would manage the grotto section of any tour. Ideally, we are looking...

My thoughts on Nha Trang I’m just leaving Nha Trang after 4 days here.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...+2
