General Tips: Honking hell
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: Ho CHi Minh is a honking hell... zillions of motorbikes all over, as well as cars and ciclos... mad traffic and pollution... and noise, in particular. It's definitely not a beautiful city to visit, but on the other hand it's very little touristy. It's just pure local chaos.

    Fondest Memory: I hate Ho Chi Minh... it drives me mad... I really longed for some silence, which was impossible to attain... and then again I love it, just because it's so authentic and not artificial. It's definitely not geared for tourism, nor for making a living there... Ho CHi Minh is pure non-sense...

     Nice start to Saigon. You had to travel all that way to sample caffe' italiano! I am surprised there was no shisha lounge too. Ciao!
