Tam Ky Travel Guide: 1 reviews and 5 photos

Seems like a small City

But once you visit the downtown area's of the city , it becomes a reality picture , that this once sleepy town , has definitely gotten bigger over the last few years. While at the Beach nearby kids will approach you to sit in there parents cabana area , where you can eat and drink and watch the sunset or just hang out ....

Travelers place for good deals

Because this city is not on the tourist maps , and no real lodgings are posted on any tourist sites. You can find Hotels and motels here at a great price often from as low as 8.00 per night to as high as 40.00 USD per night. And with the beach only a few Km away it makes it a great restful location . and still located with in 1 hour of HOI-AN and close to My Son Temples. There is also direct Train service here on most trains.

A bargain for shopping as well as eating out?

As food price in the larger cities rise , they pretty much stay the same here with a bowl of PHO for mostly 8,000 vnd unlike the lager cities that charge 50,000 vnd and there are plenty of roadside places to eat for very little money , but mind you this is a small town and most money is done in Vietnamese . But they have most major banks and a few atm's . And a few hospitals. And if you have time get your teeth worked on here , the dentist on Phan chu trinh street can give you a root canal for under 20 usd , and a great teeth cleaning for about 5.00 usd.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:You will not have those nagging people following you to make you by souvenirs .
  • Cons:most shops tent to charge you more because you are a foreigner
  • In a nutshell:An Interesting place to be ; Without being overcharged like the rest of the tourist areas.
