"theres not much to do here" Man I've been living in Da Nang over a year now and Im NEVER bored. There's always something to do... Hai Van pass is right there... you have secret beaches all around the penisula... Hoi An is 35 minutes away... surfing.. paragliding... table tennis... best sea food in the world... delicious nước mía every damn corner... best burgers in Asia... I can keep going... c'mon now 🥴😂
Haha fair enough. This city can be very vibrant indeed. I think if you compare it with the old part of Hoi An it seem a little like that if you just pass through like he did 🤭
But from October to january its not the best weather or sea conditions unfortunately.
@@kevod09 go a little down south and it will fry your eggs over cooked if you leave it outside mid day for 20 mins lol. Binh Dinh Nha Trang Ninh thuan ect .
Will be there in 2 days and have been coming to Danang since 2018. Super friendly people, one of the best beaches in the world, certainly the most affordable, excellent tourist infrastructure at bargain prices, great bars, restaurants, hotels, scenic beauty and you can rent a motorbike and drive to Hoi An in 30 minutes. AWESOME!!!
Awesome! I’m glad to hear you’re making your way over here too 🤩 have an amazing time 🌞
Hope ur having a good day. I’m on the beach today also
@@Chai_Travelu living here?
I am down in Hoi An now for the next couple of weeks. If you make it down here go to 7 Bridges Taproom and I'll buy you a beer!@@kingalpha4203
Wonderful video. Thank you so much.
You’re welcome Yasin :) always a pleasure 🏆 have a beautiful evening
@@Chai_Travel Thank you. You too, have a wonderful evening. 😀
Good work, keep it up!!!!!
Thanks, will do! :D
We are in Da Nang currently and love it! We've been full-time traveling with our 2 kids and we are considering Da Nang as one of our home bases after travelingto 11 countries in 1 year! Easy airport access, clean, safe, nice beach and affordable! Simply Amazing!❤😊🇻🇳
Lovely! Have the best time you guys 😍 stay in touch
Some great interviews here and such a beautiful location Chai. Wayne was at this location and that more touristy town a month or so ago and loves both places. No doubt you and Ilona are enjoying it there just as much. Re the interviews plenty of interesting points and variety in conversation there. The Russian guy was very open with his opinion regarding the war and it's justification or otherwise. I'm surprised at that and hopefully it flies under the radar and he stays safe. Well done again mate These types of vlogs are always excellent. 🤩
Thanks Steven 😁 I’ve noticed Wayne was in Vietnam too! Nice guy he is 😃
I feel for all the Russians too who are in a similar situation. Some nasty things are going on right now 😕
Anyway we keep on rocking 😊 have a beautiful evening
Brother, what nice video... looking forward to travelling to SE Asia and spending some time in Vietnam.
Thanks for saying hi 😁 I hope you’re able to go soon :) cheers brother
Thumbs up 👍 Champ
Woohoo! Thanks again mate 🏆
I really enjoy Da Nang under sun. It makes me feel happy and freshing
Haha yes! Me too!
Danang looks impressive, much talked about , look forward to your views on it 😃👏🏆👍👋🙏
Thanks mate 😁 I can already tell you we love Da Nang, haha. It changed so much since last times. Two different worlds, in the good way in my opinion 😃🏆 thanks mate
it's really great -- it's big enough to have all kinds of "comfort" things like cinemas and shopping malls, enough foreigners to have Western food if you are missing it BUT it's small enough to not be so overcrowded and overwhelming like Saigon or dirty like Hanoi. Also there's a lot of history and cool museums and sites to see. And it's cheaper than either of the other big cities. Oh yeah and the beaches are wonderful.
I am preparing to spend December to mid-February there and can't wait. Also looking for changes as the last time I was there was December 2019
Very good Video! Especially there on that beautiful beach boardwalk! I've been to Da Nang many times when traveling in Vietnam, and had a very strange (to me) experience when walking out of the airport the first time. I remember having the "feeling" of relief, of having arrived "home". I passed it off as relief from traveling for a bit. But I've never had that feeling before, even after arriving at my real home after traveling. Do admit I feel very comfortable in Da Nang, going again next month!
Nice mate :) I’m glad you’re able to go again 🤩 have a great time and merry Christmas
Going to visit Da Nang soon
Good on you 😍 I’m sure you’ll love it 😁
Your video is great, everyone needs to have knowledge about where they want to travel, me too before traveling anywhere I often go to TH-cam to learn,thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your kind words 🏆😃
I hope you made it up Sơn tra mountain! Lovely escape right in the city with endangered (and beautiful) monkeys. Good for a hot day as its fresh up there.
Nice one mate! We made it up there 😃 thanks for the tip and hopefully see you in the next one 😁
Those are really interesting videos. I really love that. And I hope that it will be translated into Vietnamese or English subtitles
Ey mate, thanks 😃 the subtitles are also available in Vietnamese. You’ll just need to turn on the subtitles and select Vietnamese in settings. There are over 15 different languages available 😊 are you able to find it?
Is it a good time to visit this month in Da Nang? Planning to go there next week.
It's always a good time to go to Da Nang in my opinion ;) expect to have some rain and strong wind. Ask around whenever you there what to do and where to go and you'll have the best time :D
Like your work. The art museum there is free and great! ( plus dry on a rainy day and cool on a hot one) I only spent 1 day there so don't know much else.
Thanks 😁 I’m glad you do so. Thanks for the tip 😃 we moved away already but I have to make my way back again at some stage
Im going there again soon, I like VN and VN ppl
Nice one mate. It’s such a nice place and I’m sure you’ll love it again 😁 thanks for watching 🏆
i was in Da Nang dec 2019. beautiful long beach, it is a big city. but..... i like more smaller towns.....
Nice one :) I'm glad you enjoyed it. We're on the same page :D
As in the movie “Apocalypse Now” where “Charlie don’t surf”, and back during the war, Da Nang beach was called China Beach. There’s not much of old Da Nang left, it has changed and built up so much. Still, there is a lot to see and do in the nearby mountains and country, despite what the pretty Italian tourist said. Thank you for your video. 🫡
Thank YOU for your comment and watching 🫡
You gotta speak to people who've been around for a bit longer than just one night or one week... haha. But yeah, Da Nang's great ;-)
Haha! Yeah fair enough ;) I spoke with someone who lived there for a few years but, I leave that for another episode where I only interview people who live and love to live in Vietnam:)
Insurance will not cover you for a motorbike crash unless you have a local motorbike license or (perhaps) you have an internatioal motorbike licence. The later would involve you holding a full motorbike license in your home country and the former would involve you passing a local motorbike test. Many people have discovered this the hard way. Insurance companies look for any out. Not having a motorbike license is sure to VOID your insurance claim for a motorbike crash. Read the terms carefully.
Good Idea!
Ich bevorzuge Sầm Sơn (Thanh Hoa) gefällt mir und wäre eine Alternative zum auswandern. I ❤ 🇻🇳
Very interesting interview! Ive heard that Danang and other coastal cities have rat problem, i wanted to see how big of an issue is it? Can they really get to the apartments?? Many cities in the US and Europe have rats too, but not in the houses 😮. Can we get more information on thus issue please 🙏
Ey mate, thanks! I guess it’s getting better and better. But like every big Asian city there are rats ;)
I know some cases that rats and mice also living in sealings and walls in European countries ;)
Danang's a bit wet and chilly for me in the winter 😅plus the typhoons hit pretty hard there 😬Great food though!
Nice one mate. I didn’t know about the typhoons! Good to know :) October till February seems to be the worst what I’ve just found online. Thanks
@@Chai_Travel Yup, from the Philippines whipped up in the East Sea 😅
Danang is cool
Going back soon :D
❤😊😊
the funny thing is vietnam has been a long time friend of the soviets....so naturally ukraine and russia are friends with vietnam. Naturally we vietnamese dont like war, we're tired of that shit....but we try to stay neutral on the issue and not meddle in it. Unlike some other nations we all know
I would like a change from Thailand, can you recommend, 3 cities in Vietnam, for beaches & city life
Da nang, nha trang, Vung tau. Vung tau near HCM city ( Saigon 100km)
Yeah I agree 😁 especially Da Nang. It’s easy to fly in and out. The beautiful beaches and Hoi An is close by. Check out different parts in Hanoi to see what suits you best :) I’m sure you’d love Hue too 😁
We love Da Nang. Funnily enough though the beach side of the city we've never even visited.
Gotta live it up on the city side eating and hitting the markets with the locals 🇻🇳
Nice! Haha yeah i never reality like city beaches though this one is pretty attractive to us :D So white and clean + not overcrowded at all :D Cheers
Bãi biển ở Đà Nẵng rất rất đẹp
Hello, your information about da nang is great. I would like to vacation there with my family for 3 weeks. in March/April. Please tell me what it looks like with mosquitoes, since I'm traveling with children I wanted to ask about your experience. is it very bad?
Is it a place to vacation with children?
have you taken any vaccinations?
can you use tap water to brush your teeth?
Did you also tolerate the raw salad while eating?
Sorry for the many questions, but I'm now also a father and a bit worried about my children.
Thank you and best regards
emil
Hi hi, I think Vietnan over all is a very safe country. We don’t have children of our own though talking to a lot of parents who are traveling in SEA. Safety is not any of their concerns. Though I'd watch out a bit more after dark and busy tourist areas and the traffic can be quite scary. But I would highly recommend coming over to Vietnam. Especially Da Nang is child friendly and a safe place :)
thanks ;-) @@Chai_Travel
Wow at the Russian guy. He doesn’t want to die in Ukraine as Putin makes him go fight. We have problems in the US but that guy put it all in perspective.
I compare danang to just roxas boulevard in manila
How does the humidity and heat in Da Nang compare with places such as Koh Samui, Siem Reap and Penang? Is it tolerable, especially for retirement age people?
Depends on the time of the year. There can be very strong winds and rain but, most time of the year it’s very nice. At the beach the weather is always nicer in hot climates I reckon:)
@@Chai_Travel I'm thinking of day to day life as an expat and retiree who presumably don't spend all their time hanging around the beaches even in Danang or Nha Trang.
I understand:) at the beach I mean near the water. Let’s say Siam Reap has a different climate because it’s not near any beach. I think Da Nang would be a perfect place to retire. Koh Samui too 😁
@@Chai_Travel Are there any interviews or videos of retired American or Canadian couples in either place?
One can assume that Da Nang is far more relaxing and calm compared to a congested, noisy place like Saigon.
I love Da Nang :)
@@Chai_Travel And how do you compare it to Hanoi or other places like Siem Reap, Koh Samui or Nha Trang??
Dalat has a European look because of the French.
I had the same experience in HCM city which the first lady said. When I took taxi from the airport to downtown area, I had been rubbered or stolen $300 dollar from taxi driver. They have many cheating ways. I am a single traveler, even I know that was a trap on taxi, for personnel safety ,I can do nothing.
Ow noo. I’m so sorry to hear that. Hopefully this would never happen to you anymore.
I watch your videos a lot and your question regarding a message to pass on to the world is really repetitive (same with the answers). Better to drop that question in my opinion.
Thanks for watching again and I appreciate your feedback mate. I see why it’s getting maybe a bit boring for you after seeing so many of them. Unfortunately I do really like that question so I’ll keep on asking it but, what I can do is cutting out some of the answers which keep on repeating. Thanks again mate. I does mean a lot 😃🏆 cheers!
I personally found Da Nang a little boring personally, I much preferred HCMC and Hoi An
Thanks for your input. I had the same feeling 13years ago. It changed a lot though. How long ago did you visit? :)
@@Chai_Travel in March this year :) the only interesting parts were Lady Buddha, the dragon bridge and marble mountain 🤭 which we did in one day so then we were like... OK what now 😂
Saigon has got tap dancing rats for your enjoyment.
I’m not too sure if I’d like to watch that 😅
I feel bad that you actually made that Russian man the thumbnail for this video after he said he was nervous to talk about his opinion of the war on camera. It was good to have his take, but maybe you should be a little more sensitive to his fears and not make him feel any more scared of being recognized?
Hi hi, thanks for your concern. First I have to say he’s such a brave man to be part of this video. We’ve chatted after we stopped filming to talk a bit more and I had his full consent. He has he’s own reasons for sharing this with us. I’m sorry if you got offended by anyway by this video
@@Chai_Travel No no, I wasn’t offended in any way - in fact I found it interesting and have been enjoying your channel.
After you responded that he had the freedom to say what he said since he was in Vietnam, he said - “kind of, because a judge can even send you to jail if you come back to Russia” (so saying he could still get in big trouble)
So I just felt sorry for the guy about being pictured on the thumbnail since he said it was dangerous stuff. But as long as you got consent for the thumbnail too, then that’s much better to know.
Aaah gotcha mate :) thank you. I always try to be good that way. Thanks for watching and interacting 🤗
Of course he’s there so he won’t get drafted, it’s also the reason for the uptick in Russians in Thailand the last couple of years. During the Vietnam war, a lot of draft dodgers moved to Canada.
This was not very informative.
This is not the greatest feedback either ;) what would you implement or change?
Stop lying😅
About?
Da Nang is insanely boring. 💯
:p I think you where looking in the wrong spots. Or, maybe it’s not your cup of tea? What’s your favorite “not boring” place to be?
Yea, it’s not the place for Metallica concerts or club scenes, but it has it’s place for a very large segment of visitors and investors to grow it’s tourist economy. Older, retired, and family vacationers and expats bring in the real money.
I understand why Russians left their country. They do not want to be forced to fight a silly putin war.
Yes, it’s so sad how much power one guy can have 😕
@@Chai_Travel I also believe they planned the plane crash for wagner boss. Rip. They do not care others are onboard
Or in a silly Zelensky war backed by western central bankers through taxpayers, me being one.
@@generalnguyenngocloan1700 So you are justifying the invasion of a dictator? Who was a shady communist agent in the past. Step outside of the FOX News circle jerk, and look at things through an unbiased and logical pair of lens. Russia can't just invade another neighboring nation without consequences. What kind of message is that sending to China, North Korea etc. whom have eyes on Taiwan and South Korea. Republicans are quick and loud to be against one tyrannical government (China) but quiet when it comes to another, Russia. Pick a ground and stand on it.
South Vietnam fell because Congress cut off funding. Americans were complaining about how expensive it was then to supply the ARVN, just as how you are complaining now. VNCH and their dependents still bitter about that. The irony of your profile name and icon.
It’s ok for the Ukrainians to be forced to fight tho 😏😏😏
You should have been there during the 1960's and 1970's. Glad to see this nation has made a recovery.😎🪖✝
