Hi bros, back from my maiden trip to hcm. Had a great time and no problems. On arrival at the airport got two SIM cards one with unlimited data for the month.cost was cheap , 280000dong. Bought the taxi into town at the same counter. 150000.
Stayed at Caravelle, it's undergoing renovations so ground floor rather cramped. Go my girl in every night no problems. Just tip the bell hop.nearly forgot, had to pay bribe at the airport to customs for binging in 2ipads. He wanted 60usd for each one but compromised at 20usd with money under the folder at the desk.
We went lots of clubs and disco every night . Had a grand dinner at the top of highest tower in hcm city.
I find the people friendly and taxi driver tip him 2000 dong for trip to airport on return he treat me like king!
Definitly a great chat with bro hurricane gave me an insight to the customs and ways of the viets.
Will be making another trip there soon as a I return from trip to oz.
Thanks to all bros for input and hope we can cheong there next trip.
