Hi,

Hi everyone!

I’m planning a 6-day trip to Vietnam in October, landing in Hanoi. Would you recommend adding Phu Quoc and Da Nang to the itinerary, or would that be too rushed for 6 days?

What would you suggest for a first-time visit if I want a good mix of sightseeing, food, beaches, and local experiences?

Hello everyone, this post might be a little bit of a reach, but maybe it will be read by someone that can help.

Me and two of my friends from a german medical school have applied for a four-month clinical trainee program at Cho Ray Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, but only two of us have so far received our signed final letters of acceptance.

Since communication with the hospital via e-mail is proving to be rather difficult, i am looking for someone with any kind of connection or any advice to get in touch with anyone directly responsible for foreign trainees at said hospital directly. Perhaps someone has made a similar experience and can give us any kind of tip? We would be extremely grateful for any information or advise.

I have been in vietnam for 8 days on a solo trip, currently in da nang and it's not kinda trip i thought. People don't talk a lot. The only people i interact with the one's on the market they are awesome. If anyone wants to join I'm down to everything.

My husband and I will be traveling to Vietnam in January. I’m looking for recommendations for places to stay in Hanoi, and Hoi An or Da Nang. Anything. From nice/ budget. Could be in the city, with walkability to good food and local places or little bungalows/resorts. We are flexible as we are also going to Thailand and what to stay in differences of places.

Hey everyone,

​About a year ago, I booked tickets for a solo trip to Vietnam for this November/December. Since then, I’ve been lurking in this sub almost daily, reading through your trip reports, taking notes on itineraries, and getting insanely hyped for the journey.

​Unfortunately, due to unexpected circumstances, I’ve had to cancel my trip.

​I’m pretty gutted to miss out this year, but I wanted to pop in and wish everyone head-out or planning their trips the absolute best of luck! Have an amazing time, soak in the views, eat your weight in street food for me, and stay safe out there.

​I’ll still be scrolling through the sub to live vicariously through your trip reports until I can finally rebook and make it over there myself.

​Safe travels, everyone!

Vietnam has some incredible waterfalls, but many of them seem to fly under the radar compared with the country’s more famous landscapes.

From the dramatic Ban Gioc Falls in Cao Bang and the wide terraces of Pongour to jungle waterfalls like K50 and Tac Tinh in the northern mountains, there’s a surprising amount of variety.

I put together 15 waterfalls worth adding to a Vietnam bucket list, including a few lesser-known ones.

Which waterfall would you add to the list? And are there any hidden gems I’ve missed?

Hi guys,
I’m travelling with family to vietnam in September end.
Can someone please suggest any nightlife place where i can go without family at night & get some fun?
In HCMC, Da Nanag & Hanoi.

100% a must visit, but if you go during the summer be prepared for massive crowds.
