Answer 4

There are many places near Saigon that you may want to see. Many tourists I talk to love the Mekong river tours. Basically, you take a day trip along the river and see Viet farm and village life. Since my wife and I own farm property along the river, It would not be my first choice since I live it every time I am there, but there must be about a million different shades of green along the river.

Probably the closest "beautiful" place would be Vung Tau, It's about a 2 or 3 hour trip by bus or even shorter by ferry. It is a beach resort and has spectacular scenery. In addition to pagodas, architecture and natural beauty, it has some of the best restaurants around. Tommy's Bar serves excellent "western" style food as well as Vietnamese. On my last trip in November, we ate at a brand new place that was once a magificent French villa. The new owners spent a lot of money restoring the place and the atmosphere (as well as the food) was great.

Dalat and Nha Trang are a bit further, the former being a mountain resort and the other similar to Vung Tau.

If you like nature, visit Cat Tien National Park, It is a jewel among many jewels.

One other suggestion would be to fly to either Ha Tien or Phu Quoc on the southern Vn/Cambodia border. It is very much like Ha Long bay but much closer to Saigon. A RT air ticket will cost about a hundred dollars usd. The two hour ferry ride between them was about $6 last time I went.

Enjoy !

Answer 5

Yes, it is ideal to start a visit to Vietnam with Ho Chi Minh City where you can see the War Museum and visit the place where the Americans had heel of a time fighting a gorilla war and were eventually miserably defeated! Do visit a place called Cuchi and experience the bunkers (still intact) originally used by the tiny (small build) Vietnamese soldiers! By the way people in Vietnam are pretty young , most of the elders having been perished in the war! Though they may be economically impoverished, the people are friendly and you will definitely adore and admire the Vietnamese beauty! By the way, Vietnamese airlines fly to most cities around the world now and their service is reportedly 'above average'!

Answer 6

Here's the reply I gave to a similar question before:

"Vietnam. It will be my second visit in recent years. We will be there for three weeks later this year and plan to visit:

1. Ho Chi Minh City (the former Saigon): The largest city and the most dynamic economic area of Vietnam. On our agenda: The Reunification Hall (the Old Independence Palace) where the last American-backed regime surrendered to liberation forces on April 30, 1975. Ben Thanh Market: Easily the largest market place in the world. Cholon: Vietnam's Chinatown. Museum of War Remnants: displays of war crimes committed by the American side.

2. Cu Chi Tunnels: The tunnel system that sheltered ressitance fighters during the war against the Americans. Not far from Saigon.

3. Mui Ne Resort: A seaside resort area full of beautiful and luxurious hotels/bungalos. Near the city of Phan Thiet and just 160 miles North of Saigon.

4. Vinpearl Resort: Another 150 miles up the coast from Mui Ne. Near the City of Nha Trang. The diving capital of Vietnam. Even better than in Thailand.

5. Hoian: An old mideaval harbor town once thriving with traders from other countries and hosted several international settlements. There are now several famous tailor shops in the area: you can have suits, shirts and dresses made exactly to your measurements and in any style of your choice for a fraction of what you pay for an off the rack item in the US. They'll even ship the items home for you or you can pick them up at the shop within a couple of days. Hoian has been designated a Unesco Heritage Site. North of Nha Trang but South of Hue.

6. Hue: The old Imperial City locating about half way between Hanoi and Saigon, also not far from the coast. We'll visit the old Imperial Palace and the tombs of the Nguyen Emperors nearby.

7. Halong Bay: The beautiful bay in Northern Vietnam, full of natural wonders. Also a Unesco world heritage site.

8. Sapa: the hill town with a great local market where you can buy local craft products from colorfully-garbed inhabitants who are members of Vietnam's mountain minorities. We have also arranged for a visit to a minority village.

9. Dienbienphu: In the Northwest of Northern Vietnam about 200 miles from Hanoi. Now a modern town but it was a frontier village in 1954 and site of the greatest battle wage by the Vietnamese against the French occupiers. The French were thouroughly whipped and sued for peace in Geneva. They left Northern Vietnam by May of 1955 and Southern Vietnam a year later.

10. Hanoi: The ancient capital of Vietnam, much older than Hue. A beautiful city on the Red River and with several beautiful lakes. We'll visit the Ho Chi Minh Musoleum (where Vietnam first president's enbalmed remains can be seen), the Museum of Military History, the original/mideaval "36 streets" where even more traditional craft and modern products can be purchased at great prices (the women in our group will go beserk over this shopping opportunity). Also the Temple of Literature: the 900-year-old university, the first Vietnamese institution of higher learning.

We are looking forward to meeting the friendly, hospitable and beautiful Vietnamese people again and have the opportunity to sample the best food this side of heaven: fresh, flavorful and low in fat. The cost there for everything is so reasonable for what you get people are going to Vietnam for their vacaction more and more every day. $35/night for a nice hotel room, $1 to $3 for a great meal, $1 for a long taxi drive...The facilities are so clean and well maintained, often very new ...great values for your money. "

Must Eats: Pho (of course), Cha Gio (Fried Rolls), Nem Cuon (Spring Rolls), Cha Ca (Fish Patties), Canh Chua (Fish Chowder), Bun Cha (Vermicelli and Pork), Thit Bo Bay Mon (Seven-Course Beef) ..many more...
