Packing Lists: Bring the DEET
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]


  • Toiletries & Medical Supplies: Essential! I don't usually get bitten by mosquitos, but this time....wow. Bring some repellant with DEET and use it.

    Clothing & Shoes: Pack light!!!
  • Tip Rating:

  • Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: After my second visit to HCMC I'd strongly suggest to pack light - clothes and most other things can be purchased in HCMC for just a few dollars. Only exception to that would be rather tall/large people, as asian sizes are a tad smaller. It's still quite inexpensive though to get clothing tailor-made to your size within a day or two.
    As with any tropical climate, wear breathable material - I can't imagine surviving a walk around HCMC in polyester!
    Bring some sort of rain protection depending on the season.
