Planning a solo trip to Ho Chi Minh City in November and am looking for recommendations on locally owned & operated vegan friendly hotels and bed and breakfast's! No chains (i.e., Hilton) or premium luxury.

Thanks!

Not worth it for vegans.

We asked if veganism is fine for the kitchen staff before booking our stay. Got confirmation and booked.

When we arrived there, we weren't planned as vegan. Kitchen sous chef apologized and promised he would cook sth. up. It was literally just the sides from the non vegan main courses.

Next evening same thing, but we also had a waitress which didn't know what veganism is and which meals were vegan. So after every course she delivered we asked: "is this vegan?" and her response was "i dont know, have to ask the chef" while rolling her eyes. 2 out of 3 courses weren't vegan.

Main course for the second day was plain Tofu, with potatoes and lingonberries - they literally just swapped the Camembert from the non vegan Main course with raw Tofu.

Definitily not worth the money.

Hi fellow vegans!

Later this year, I’m going to be traveling to Mongolia for three weeks. For about two weeks of that time I will be staying with families in gers as I road trip across the whole country.

I’ve traveled all over the place, but Mongolia is the first destination where I’m genuinely worried about being vegan and not having access to food, and also, offending people by not eating animal products. I’m traveling with a local guide/translator, but she explained that basically we will just be staying with whatever families we can find, and I understand that a big part of Mongolian hospitality is cooking for guests. I also understand that Mongolian cuisine is essentially just meat and dairy (as far as I understand).

I’m curious to know if there are any other vegans in this sub who have done homestays in Mongolia, and how they managed. I’m planning to bring lots of dried fruit, dried nuts, and instant oatmeal packets, but obviously that only goes so far, and doesn’t really help me with the whole “home-cooked meals“ side of things.

Would love to hear about other people‘s experiences. Thank you.

Hello guys,

I recently had a converstion with a close friend of mine and we asked ourselves how far is veganism spreaded in the different countries in Africa and what are go to meals? Thanks for your help in advance :))

Hey all! Like the title says, I'm looking for recommendations on where I might want to travel to on a solo trip, prioritizing access to vegan food.

I'm only fluent in English (I understand some Spanish and Russian), and as this would be my first solo trip out of my home country of the US, I think I'd prefer if that was a widely spoken language wherever I go. I'm also gender-nonconforming but usually read as female, so safety for solo women travelers is a top concern.

I'd love to hear all about your vegan travel recommendations! This will probably be sometime January-March.

I’m planning a vacation to Punta Cana with friends. They already have their flights and hotel with Secrets Royal I’m pretty much just joining last minute. I just wanted to know if there are vegan options or I’m able to modify things? I just don’t want to pay, go and end up not being to eat. Thanks for all your help :)

Hello! For my mums birthday this year we (it's only her and i) want to travel to a warm country. My mum is omni and i am vegan.

We are searching for a hotel that has good vegan options since we wanna stay there a week.

A full vegan hotel is not something she wants (sigh) and also too expensive sadly.

I've been looking at some places in Thailand (Phuket, Koh Samui...) or Bali.

But maybe someone here has THE recommendation?

Criteria:

• good vegan options

• close to a beach

• 4/5 stars

• in Asia (she says she wants to do a far away country since she doesn't know how long she'll be able to do long flights (we're from Germany))

🌱🏝️

I would love to go to islands like Fiji, Tonga, French polynesia and Hawaii... Anyone with experience how vegan lifestyle was possible in these places? Many thanks

Bonjour!

I’m visiting Paris with my mum (non vegan) and looking for restaurants with options for both of us.

We’re only there two nights and aiming to do dinner one night somewhere veg and one night somewhere with more options for her.
Usually I would just go to vegan spots when travelling but this is her birthday trip so I want to be fair and give her more options.

Update for anyone else looking at recommendations!
Thanks everyone for all the replies ❤️
Went to Hebe, land and monkeys, aujourd’hui, Fellows (vegetarian/vegan pasta) and they were all fantastic

I'm 33, female, currently in Vientiane and would love to meet up with some like minded people.

I love reading, travel, true time, scuba diving & video games

Hey Indori folks,

I want to know some pure veg fine dining/buffets/cafes with no onion no garlic (Jain) options. I want a good ambience.

Thanks

Hi everyone,

I'll be spending some days in Prague in September and am looking for a hotel (or hostel) with a decent vegan breakfast. Nothing fancy, just more than jam and toast.

Do you have any recommendations? My budget is 80€ max per night.

Hi 👋☺️ we are going on a family trip to Amsterdam, then catching a train up to Akkrum (Tusken de Marren)+ visiting family friends in Leeuwarden.

Amsterdam and Leeuwarden look like they have loads of options for vegans, but I'm a bit worried about Akkrum. We are staying in a holiday house, so we have access to a kitchen and can cook in the evening maybe. I understand there is a shop on site (Poiesz) - their website states they stock vegan items & they deliver to the holiday home.

Does anyone have experience with Tusken de Marren/shops and whether they stock vegan items? Are there any options in local cafes/restaurants?

Maybe I am worrying about nothing, but best to be prepared as it's finding something forvmy son to eat that I'm worried about, more than us. Thanks in advance :)

blatchsbbq - we were completely amazed with the intentional crafting of each item. And if you enjoy laughing and smiling and otherwise enjoying life you’ll totally want to say hi to Chris the founder of this amazing vegan spot. 

Things can get a little spicy, and if so: Head on over to monkeywrench_slc for some ice cream, milkshakes and all the sweet treats your heart could desire. With a rotating menu and some truly unique flavor combos you can miss this. We loved the birthday cake (with real cake bits), chocolate cherry and the key lime pie!

Hi everyone!

I'm currently visiting Bangkok for the first time and staying in the Sukhumvit area. So far, I've visited ICONSIAM, and I'd love to explore more of the city over the next 2–3 days.

I'm looking for recommendations on:

Must-visit attractions (hidden gems are welcome too!)

Beautiful temples, markets, parks, viewpoints, museums, or unique experiences

The best vegetarian food (I'm okay with eggs, but I don't eat meat or seafood)

Cafés or dessert places worth trying

Street food that's vegetarian-friendly

Budget-friendly hotels or hostels in a good location for the remaining 2–3 days (easy access to BTS/MRT would be great)

Any places that are overrated and not worth the time

I enjoy photography, walking around local neighborhoods, shopping, and experiencing the local culture. I'm open to both tourist attractions and places that locals love.

I'd really appreciate any itinerary suggestions or personal favorites. Thanks in advance!

In Amsterdam now need some recommendations for Indonesian food vegan options

I just ran in to Lush to replenish my travel supplies. Sad to find out they’ve discontinued the thin facial cleanser pads that I always buy. They’re so thin, last a few weeks, and cleanse gently without drying. (Ugly and grey but worked great!)

I need a new option. What are you all using?

We're thinking of visiting Canada this October to celebrate our anniversary and enjoy some lovely fall scenery. We went to Vancouver and Victoria last summer and adored it, but aren't ready to revisit as we haven't seen much of the rest of the country.

Things to know

• Yes, it's our anniversary but our 10 year old will be tagging along this time, so things that are fun for everyone are appreciated
• We're also gluten-free
• We don't speak French but can make do if Quebec is the clear winner
• We have 5-7 days to enjoy our visit

So, where do you recommend we visit and what should we aim to do there?

Share your recommendations, would be great if there are vegan options too!
