by buddytan
Hello
i think you should travel to Nha Trang for 2night flight to Hoian for 3 night 2night in Saigon.
Day 1: Arrival day overnight in Saigon. Day 2: Enjoy Saigon. Day 3: Morning flight to Nhatrang enjoy relax on beach overnight in Nhatrang. Day 4: enjoy Nhatrang, then you can take train or continue flight to Hoian stay for 3 nights, my recomendation you should stay in Hoian instead of Muine, because Hoian is great beach and great foods, great shopping place, pretty pleasure place for honey moon trip. you should book through travel agent in vietnam
let try out to drop few lines for Viet Vision Travel . they take good care of you and affordable
Enjoy have great time

ATMs Everywhere
by neurochic
Before I went to Saigon, I was worried about carrying large amounts of money on myself. No need to worry, ATMs are everywhere. All you need is an ATM card. When I was shopping in the Ben Thanh market I had no cash on me one day, but no need to worry, the lady selling the clothes directed me to the nearest ATM which was a block down. There are many banks available as well and many are even open on Saturdays. I had no trouble cashing in my travelers cheques either. If the bank is closed, you can also cash your cheques either at your hotel front desk or at the Sinh Cafe. I do advise however that before you come that you have a stash of $1 US bills. They are a good means to bargain and tip people. You will find that if you carry large US bills people will all of a sudden have no change for you. Deal in small US currency whenever possible.
Take some time...
by mnhaus
Take some time to atleast learn some basic phrases in Vietnamese. It helps with bargaining and the locals are usually impressed you took time to do it. Even if you murder the pronounciation, they will help you out.
What to bring and what to leave behind
by wagstaff
Bring one small bag with essentials only. If you need another bag to take home accumulated souvenirs etc you can buy this very cheaply in Ho Chi Minh City Take only 2 days worth of clothing with you. Clothes are extremely cheap in Ho Chi Minh City Only bring essential medicines. All other items can be bought in Ho Chi Minh City, including most intenational brands (e.g. toothpaste, soap, shampoo etc). Film and photo processing are of a high standard. Same day film processing and print is the norm. Bring a Mobile Phone. Phone calls outside Vietnam are very expensive, but domestic calls and text messages are very cheap. Text messaging is a cheap way of keeping contact overseas. Make sure the phone you bring is a GSM phone.
I asked the motorbike driver...

I asked the motorbike driver to take me to the animal market. But I guess he didn't take me to the worst one,because this wasn't that bad. It was bad,but not awful. Then he said that there was at least 3 more markets in Saigon,but he didn't want to take me there.
