We traveled from 05/19/12 to 05/29/12. The flight with a connection in Dubai and a transfer from the airport to the hotel took more than 13 hours! We flew FlyDubai - a budget airline with paid meals, drinks and entertainment. The hotel is located on a spit between the river and the ocean. Every time you go to the city, you have to take a small boat. They go quite often, so there is no inconvenience in this regard.

A mid-range hotel, about like an inexpensive five in Egypt.

The food is also good, just a little spicy.

Every day we went to the city for fruits, seafood, etc.

Everywhere you need to bargain, we dropped prices at least twice.

In general, we liked everything. But there are still so many interesting places in the world that we are unlikely to ever come here.

I, personally, didn’t see anything cool in this in this review, except for sick, disgusting xenophobia and rudeness. I think this citizen should go to Sochi for the time being and yell and bullshit there. It's too early to travel around the world.

Dear comrades. For the umpteenth time I read a review about Vietnam and Phan Thiet and a terrible longing overwhelms me. That's why I ask people who have been to Thailand: "Is it worth it to rumble to Vietnam after that?" Let me explain. All I heard about the holiday was: "Cool, food is cheap, pearls too, awesome buddha statue (concrete), nature!" Hmmm ... I beat my head on the table, crying, because the departure and the issuance of a ticket are already "on the ointment". People!!! Fly to Thailand, settle even in Pattaya, but on Jomtien. Reviews about Vietnam are boring and one-sidedly uninteresting. And to Cambodia from Pattaya the same is much closer and cheaper.

If you were in Saigon for only one night, then there is nothing to say that there is nothing to see there. There is a chic park that you can’t get around in 1 day. And in it: a very beautiful ORCHID park. Lots of fun and entertainment. Yes, and a lot of other stuff. You just had to look for cafes with inexpensive, but very decent food (moreover, the European menu). And it's not difficult to find ... you just need to raise your ass and walk. In English, many understand, and if someone does not understand, then he will immediately call the "understandable". Many menus in cafes are generally painted in Russian - you need to ask! We really enjoyed our vacation!

Lord, dear, if you endure the road so hard, then why did you have to go so far? Or do you not know how far you have to go? It is very convenient to travel between cities by plane! I returned from another trip to Vietnam for a couple of days, took 3 domestic flights so as not to waste time on taxis or buses. For example, the cost of Ho Chi Minh City-Nha Trang is $ 37! It's not expensive and very convenient! And why look for Thai massage in Vietnam? Go to Tai and get everything there. I did a massage in Vietnam and enjoyed it! But that doesn't mean my life hasn't been better! :)))rnSo Svetlana wrote about the park in Saigon. There are a lot of them!!! The new Dai Nam Park is a huge area, very interesting! And there are many interesting things in all of Vietnam, but with your negative attitude, you are unlikely to appreciate them... Good luck! :)

In August 2011 I was with my wife in Saigon for 10 days - a wonderful city, good people (maybe even a little naive). Food is a topic for a separate review - but if in a nutshell, we only visited restaurants with aquariums with live seafood - THE FOOD is SIMPLY INCREDIBLE, I liked the local cuisine very much!
In general, it all depends on the mood!
