The reason for u not doing so is because you are not there yet into Vietnam and you believe your bx can do the job ...

At least is a lesson learnt for you ....

My bx use to plan for our trip to nha trang, mui ne, dalat, phan tiet, every things go smoothly except for this PQ trip, wa lau nightmare

agreed that the road to the ferry terminal at Phu Quoc is one of the worst road...which we can't find anymore in Sinkie or Malai roads...

when return, in order not to go back the same road again to the terminal, I decided to take plane flying back to HCM with my bx, leaving my bx family member taking ferry back bo bian, scare car sick again

After hearing your story, really felt sad for u. There are many hotel abt 30min from the airport. The most cost u usd$40 per twin room. 40*4=usd160 only. They are also near to the beach and near the night market.

My advice, if u & bx/gf have not go to that place b4, dun ask her to plan. I'm a person who can take long distance bus, but i still advise u to fly to PQ better. The comfortness of flying wont cause a couple to quarrel over tiredness of trip

If u are the one paying the huge amount, and if u plan wrongly, u can't blame anyone else

ya 2 months ago around April 13 somethings .... supposed to attend another brother's vnam wedding at village, but due to mild food poisoning, got stuck at Mui Ne....took train there and came back by bus



as for the resort name, can't recall now as it is in vnam name, my "local tour guide" prefer non-Ang Mo resort area

I remembered she paid around USD 18 or so, big room with hot shower, one big and one small bed, .....

[Honey Boon]

yes, my flight there around 500k per pax (on Vietnam Airlines) but booked a month earlier by my "local tour guide", but I told her to book one way as I was not sure how long I want to stay there ... big mistake.... should have booked two ways

during the x'mas period, return trips double the price...(on Mekong Airway) as double the price for 2 persons....

but really enjoy eating all the nice and fresh seafood especially the flower crab, is like 200k dong per kg... just steam and eat with salt/lemon

Danang first, then go nearby Hoi and Hue An

then Dalat

Year end may be Hanoi and nearby halong bay and sapa

so more or less can cover all the major places in vietnam liao

There are many hotel/resort along the beach area. After I arrived by coach, I just walk along the Nguyen Dinh Chieu street, go in each hotel and ask the price. Mui Ne is populated with a lot of Russian tourists......

[Honey Boon]

haha, I tot I mentioned that the other day ..... bring her to one of the McDonald at the west .... ... they sure feel bored before the 1st half end

[Honey Boon]
