I just take the overcharge or my overpaying as a form of penalty for not speaking Tieng Viet.

But as long I enjoy my trip, who has the right to call me a fool.

We make a donation of VND5m to do some charity in Vietnam. Does it make me a fool?

I feel a small gesture to help some in Vietnam as a form to thank them for a wonderful memory.

I touched down HCM after a 7 hours flight delay from Hanoi during a Vietnam public holiday period on 4 Sep 2010. It was my worst flight delay. My date was waiting for me patiently in hcm because we had to fly to Phu Quoc island tomorrow. I just had 2 bowls of hot hu tiu soup costing 10k per bowl after I checked in to my hotel. Shortly my date came to my room and we discussed the plan tomorrow. Of course we make love that nite and make my expensive flight from Hanoi worth it.

My date came to the hotel early and we took a cab to airport. The flight to Phu Quoc departed on time and we arrived on time after 45 mins journey on Air Mekong and cost only 550k per person. The view during the landing was magnificent and there was several island close by that looked virgin. Vietnam is a big country with many islands.

Upon arrival, we saw a placard holding my name and the resort hotel had despatched a free transport to the resort. Just a short 25mins we reached the resort named Thanh Kieu Resort, 100C/14 Tran Hung Dao Street, Duong Dong, Phu Quoc Island. Can find this resort in any online bookings. There was a special offer of SGD 19 per day when I booked. On the way, my first impression was this is a huge place very flat with virtually not many buildings and beautiful. Along the road Tran Hung Dao, we passed some nice looking resort such as Blue Lagoon which is 4-star. Heard from some friends the resort is very nice. That nite, we rented a motorbike from the store outside at 165k per day. We used that to travel around for the next few days. Places you may want to check out.

The Seafood Night Market – not too far from the resort, you can have fresh daily harvest of nice local seafood at very reasonable price. We ate at this place for 3 consecutive nites drinking Saigon beer. Cannot remember clearly each dinner what exactly we ate but we had fish, lobster and many types of shell fish and each meal cost less than 500k.

The Bai Sao beach – this is the other beach that face the other side of the sea. Have to travel quite far and not easy to find.

[Hurricane88]

The Duong Dong Beach – this is the beach near to my resort and along Tran Hung Dao.

Island Hopping – boat cruise which I passed because my date wasn’t keen to go.

Traffic is very light and you can ride freely and enjoy the sea breeze. Wind blew almost 24 hours non-stop and so no fans at most food stores except in the rooms. At nite the temperature drop to a nice 25 degrees and rain

Nice , will try to do some as well on my next trip . Lol I look it this way , if the company is good , money spent is well spent. Of course there will be times where you meet the wrong company then it sucks.

For those intending to go out on your own , the self help DIY site will be helpful.

Using the name of an established clubbing district in Hong Kong for a club in Saigon is never a good idea.

I didnt like it. Layout is odd, sort of a skinny L shape where you enter the club on the side of the longer leg. Pricing level similar to Fuse or Velvet.

Last event photographed by the PiS crew and uploaded on their website was 7 Sept. 2013, so you can view to get an idea of the crowd.

Bro, 1 more question, does the clubs in HCM allow customer to bring in their own liquor and pay for corkage & mixers?
