🛵🚗Saigon/ Ho Chi Minh City 🏍


🍲Food 🥖

Day 1: Phở Quỳnh , food stall in front of the Saigon Skydeck

Day 2: Ate Bình Mi at the stall nearby Phạm Ngu Lao street, mixed rice at the stall along the street, Highland Coffee

Day 4: MCD, Trưng Nguyễn Coffee , Phở 24 , Chill Skybar

Day 5: Hotel breakfast , Lotteria, Com Tam Cali Restaurant , Apartment Cafe-Partea


⭕️Basically, we manage to follow our plan. We only didn’t get to go to Ben Thant Market because we don’t feel like buying anything~But it is said that there is a very nice coffee there. It’s either 9x or 7x stalls, the boss can understand many languages~


⭕️ The expenses for this trip is slightly higher because we need to think of our parents too. The elderly cannot walk too long so we take Grab for those destination that is 1.5km and above. You can save a lot if you can walk far~


⭕️ There’s really a lot of motor and car. They will horn non-stop~I think there’s no traffic rules here in Vietnam 🙈 So, sometimes it’s even faster to walk to your destination than using transport. 😆 You can only pay attention at cars if you want to cross your road because motor will avoid you themselves🙈


⭕️ Found Chill Skybar and Air 360 Skybar,but we choose Chill Skybar ultimately~ It’s better to book in advance or else you will get kick out by them. They will continuously kick you out. (The feeling is like you didn’t spend much so they kick you out 😒 the waiter will kick you out non-stop. I saw these bunch of foreigners get kicked out from behind to front, from front to back) However, the experience overall is still very good, the view is nice❤️


⭕️ We went to 137 for massage and miumiu spa that is rated as top 1. Even my dad said it’s good~ Remember to book in advance for miumiu spa or else it will be full~ The massage in Vietnam is different from Thailand’s. I prefer the massage in Vietnam🌝Both of these massage service includes tips so you won’t need to pay any tips already~ Before we go, I saw the Vietnamese wrote that the massage girl and massage guy here depends on tips to earn, some of the massage shop will state that the price is excluding tips. Thus, do enough research before choosing where to massage


⭕️ Bui Vien Street is very happening at night. It’s almost the same as Phuket and Bangla street. You can see a lot of tourists sitting at the road side on the way there. It is recommended to drink during happy hour if you feel like drinking because the price will be cheaper🤣


⭕️ The whole journey is quite smooth, we meet a lot of honest people❤️ Only when my sister and I went to visit Reunification Palace, my day bought an ice cream with a dishonest guy on the motor. He sell RM6 for one ice cream and the price is after bargaining~If the price is not reasonable, you can choose to just walk away


⭕️ Must try Trưng Nguyễn Coffee‼️ For those who can’t take the bitter taste of coffee can choose to add condensed milk. It is really smooth 😍 You can buy your souvenirs here ❤️ Highland Coffee is normal here😐


🏝🏖 Muine🍺


🦀Food🐟

Day 2: Boke Mr. Crab seafood restaurant , the fried ice cream stall in front of Mr.Crab

Day 3: Breakfast in the hotel, the juices along the road side (very pure and cheap), Đồng Vui Foodcourt , Mr.Crab seafood restaurant(we went twice)

Day 4: Breakfast in the hotel


⭐️My sister and I saw the photo of the two mushroom in IG so we didn’t even think much and booked Lotus Village Resort~ The two mushroom is not cheap of course If you want a budget trip, you can choose backpackers accommodation~当然两颗蘑菇的价格不便宜🌝 要budget的旅行的你,可以选择backpackers住宿哦~


⭐️ Additional expenses 15USD*2 nights,as we booked 2 person room but there’s 5 of us so we need to pay another 15USD/per person per night(You will get another towel, clothes and shoes with this price and breakfast so it’s quite reasonable)25USD for additional mattress,but the bed is big enough so it’s ok to sleep 3 person 😁


⭐️ There’s not much Grab here so you will need to take taxi if you want to go far. The taxi follows meter so don’t need to worry about anything ~


⭐️ It’s a must to try the seafood at Boke’s Mr. Crab, you will regret if you did not go‼️

It’s really cheap、It’s really cheap、It’s really cheap‼️

Very fresh、Very fresh、Very fresh‼️

Boke is just a street beside Lotus, so it is 30 seconds walking distance to reach the must-try Mr. Crab seafood restaurant. AND 1 bottle of alcohol only costs 10000 VND(around RM2) Drink until you get crazy😝 Choose the seafood yourself, remember to ask what kind of flavour can you cook. It is free to cook for you 🙋🏻 The handsome waiter here knows how to speak a little bit of Chinese~


⭐️ A lot of western visit Dong Vui Foodcourt,there’s more western food here ~ I do not recommend to try the seafood here. The grilled seafood does not match our taste (You will like this place if you like dry seafood) We are not really satisfied with the meals here so we went back to Mr. Crab to eat🤣


⭐️ You can rent a motor if you know how to rike ~ You can manage your time for the 4 destinations for half-day tour. You can purchase the package if you don’t know how to do it ~ (You will need to rush by the abang if you purchase the package, I haven’t even finish taking photo 😭)

I did not do enough research for the prices of the package. I signed this half day tour package at the hotel (8 USD per person, quite sad) Recommend you guys to ask the stalls along the street, it is cheaper~


⭐️White Sand Dunes,recommend to pay ATV to go in and out as it is too far to walk ~ 200000VND per person(The people ask us to bargain when I do research but it is only 200k VND so we do not even need to bargain 😆)It is ok when we go but when we return, then brought us to play the 90 degree speeding to the sand ATV 😨 People only play once but the driver brought us to play 3 times going down for 90 degree ATV for my sister and I. I grab super hard behind ~Really really tight😨 I scare I fly out😨 very stimulate⭐️ Recommended‼️


⭐️ A Fairy Stream without any fairy. I have some comment for this attractions 🙋🏻Actually the stream will get deeper for a lot of people when they walk towards the end so a lot of people will stop walking. I saw one tourist standing along there ~ After we talk with the tourist only we realize if you “swim” there, there will be a waterfall 😧 If you like adventure, you can bring extra towel but don’t need to bring clothes. It is the last stop so the jeep driver will send you home ~ (Don’t know whether there’s fairy at the waterfall or not? Hahahaha)


📍Conclusion

🖇 It is known that Vietnam is a budget and high quality trip. If you do enough research, everything will be fine❤️

🖇 Keep asking “how much”

🖇 When you pay, remember to calculate properly how many “0” is there. I almost use 100000 as 10000 because the colours and size is almost the same

🖇 The fruits are really cheap

🖇 Sending Postcard will be slightly expensive. One post card is 10500VND(around RM2) Germany need to pay extra 3000VND

🖇 I’m quite regret because I forget to try egg coffee😐


I hope this itinerary can help you, remember to like and share to your friends or travel buddies if you like this article ❤️
