- How to travel Vietnam on $10 a day. Learn how to travel Vietnam on a budget. Vietnam is one of the best countries in Asia to travel cheaply, and this is how you do it with almost no money. We travel around Vietnam eating food, staying in hostels (AND HOTELS), going on tours, and more...Of course, occasionally you will have to spend more to go on a tour, but you make up for it on other days when you'll spend much less than your allotted $10. Lets go to Vietnam and see how we can stretch our dollar and stay longer. Please subscribe to see more videos on how to travel Southeast Asia and beyond.

$1 accommodation, crazy! Really been digging the split screen that you have been adding in the latest vids, nice one bro :D
Thanks man, I just decided out of nowhere to try it, and try a few new things I haven’t really seen much on TH-cam vlogs to make them different. And now people are saying they like it and they’re gonna do it too haha
I am currently in Thailand getting ready to go to Vietnam, so this videos helps me a lot! Safe travels to you :D
heyyy, i remember watching this when it first came out and it really helped me to plan my solo trip around south east asia... had the best time of my life and now cannot wait till my next trip travelling! 😀
one of the best vlogger !
Hey Alexander, I really enjoyed this episode...very informative, interesting and filled with valuable info. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. You've inspired me... this is now on my to-do list !
I always try to inspire and influence travel so great! Thanks for the comment as always
Got the travel bug again and stoked to be able to watch your vids for some tips. Cheers legend
Vietnam looks beautiful! Thanks for another video! Always super educational.
ashley ronsen thanks for watching my videos!
Thank you Alex for this informative video. All the best to you Alex 😊
When travel to Vietnam in a budget it is a very good idea to bring a hammock. In some small towns (NOT Ho chi Minh city, NOT Ha Noi, NOT Da Nang, NOT the big city, in some small towns if you ask them nicely, and if they are nice enough they will let you use your hammock at their place for FREE.
Yey. We will be featuring vietnam in one of our future vlogs. Looks awesome there. Im an asian too and i too love travelling around asia. It is super cheap, fun, interesting and worth remembering. That is why we started vlogging about it to atleast give a glimpse of asian culture in the eyes of the world.
Brilliant video, thanks!
We are looking at going on a holiday in Vietnam and this was really helpful. 😊
Thanks for the tips brah!
Hi my friend.Thank you to Vietnam and share Vietnam to the world
Thanks for the insight into getting a hotel once you're there, seems like the best option especially in low season. Thanks for posting
Thanks for watching
Thanks for sharing .I love South East Asia.The people ,food , transport, accomodation everything is simply amazing.
Me too, I could spend many years in SEA
Awesome can’t wait to go
Java in Indonesia was pretty cheap too! Life is cheap so more budget for the awesome activities like climbing the volcanoes 😊
Thanks for this breakdown. It's emboldening me!
Glad to help! ✊🏻
thanks for the info! traveling to vietnam next year on a really tight budget. cheers from peru!
Cheers!
Planning on traveling to Vietnam. 💕the vids.
Thanks for watching my videos! ✊🏻
To your question: INDIA! We also lived on 10$ a day there, often less.... We're going to Vietnam next year, I'm really excited ;)
Can’t wait to travel india, thanks for the response!
I am going to India in 6 months for 6 months, do you have any tips?
cheapest for me was Egypt by a landslide, I once bought 3 falafel sandwiches and a coke for 50cents. In another town I found a man selling containers of kosherie and rice-pudding for 50 cents a pop, two of those and you're set for the day!
Can’t wait to go to Egypt. Soon
@@AlexanderTravelbum amazing value for your money if you aren't being scammed (kinda happens a lot unfortunately) also found 1-2eur accommodation in places
As an Egyptian, I would say Indonesia felt way cheaper than Egypt, but my opinion my be bias since I don't really live in Egypt on budget, but yea generally Egypt is definitely quite cheap.
Thank you for telling us how to get to the amazing view spot tho ✌
I loved Cambodia for a bargain. I can’t believe how reasonable it was. And I saw some amazing things.
Thank you love these tips ill be in Vietnam early next month ❣
You’re welcome!
I can't wait to go to Vietnam.
thanks my friend for info
Goooood informations.
Come ! We welcome you !
Can’t wait to go back to Hanoi
I have been in Vietnam for the last 4 years and travelled extensively around the country and surprisingly more than most locals I talk to.
I find Agoda the best of the hotel booking apps but often it can be cheaper to find hotels you like on the app then go in on arrival or book direct online with hotel. but very occasionally agoda is cheaper than going into the hotel asking the price when it might be some big sale or some reason, that the hotel would not match agoda in Can Tho last month.
I did two bikes trips around the mekong and west coast Vietnam in March. the first trip for 10 nights every hotel was cheaper to book direct via email or messenger than online booking apps.
Very good
Hi,Mr.Alexander
You and i have same values about trip.i like your movies.
I am not good at english.
But i will look your movie.
Thank you, thanks for watching my videos
Awesome video! Cheapest place I’ve been was Thailand. Mexico was pretty cheap too if you’re in the less touristy areas
Awesome, I really want to travel Mexico more. Any suggestions? I want to make a trip soon and have no idea where to start other than Mexico City
Alexander Travelbum I haven’t been to Mexico City but I’m sure thatd be a great start. I was in a smaller town where a friend of mine lives. But I’ve also been to Cancun and if you can get past the touristy aspect of it, it’s got some incredible sights like chichen itza or all the crazy cool cenotes
Alexander Travelbum u still interested?
Cheapest place I've been is China. Thanks for the video, planning a trip there.
I like that ppl mostly try to go on a very low budget in these countries. I find the opposite thing relaxing: go for 4 and 5 star hotels, because it's the only place you will afford such a luxury. P.S. Always fly domestic, it's very cheap.
Poem Mountain, guys - look it up!
Never been to that side of Asia (only Europe and Turkey). I found Turkey to be extremely affordable (and is even more so now than when I went in early 2020 right before COVID). A giant glass of fresh squeezed pomegranate juice was about $2. I stayed in a five star hotel for less than $100 a night in a nice neighborhood in Istanbul. Food is ridiculously cheap. You can have a massive kabob feast for two for less than $10. The only part of Turkey that I found was more in line with western prices was Cappadocia.
Guatemala, El Salvador ...perhaps you must visit these insanely adventurous cheaper places too
Thanks for the nice video with very good information. I am planning a motorcycle trip in Vietnam from South to North. Do you know if there are signs with "points of interest" along the road (waterfalls, caves, temples, national parks, etc.) like in Thailand or should I better prepare them myself?
@Vietnam Travel - Incredible Asia Journeys Thanks for the information.
His Voice reminds me so much og Leo in that movie
Awesome! I'm Vietnamese and I really happy with your experience in Viet Nam. I love traveling so hope connect with you on Facebook and We can share about the traveling experience!
Thanks! Yeah let’s connect
Hii
Belize Honduras region pretty cheap and amazing!
Bali and Vietnam
Thank you, advertise scenery vietnam
Cool intro, short and to the point. Maybe add some text with the tips, some people (me all the time) sometimes scroll through the video - hover over the timeline and the small frame pops up - to go to further tips. Its a good video, keep it up!!
Hey Alex, I came across your vlogs and I really enjoyed it ... am an aspiring solo traveler ( I liked to call myself that sounds cool 😁) . I would love to connect and maybe tag along on one of your adventures ..
Hey thank you, you going anywhere soon?
Yes am planning for either turkey or Vietnam 🇹🇷 doing a lot of planning thank to your vlogs
Your travels is great, I want to do like you but if I am successful with my videos, I will go travel like you too.
Hey when you ever have a spare moment can you recommend any effective anti mosquito spray as am always bitten to shreds that i bought here in uk ....thanks do much for Vietnam travel ideas....want to get going in January Lynn x
Ah I wish I could, I’ve never been a big mosquito magnet, but I do know the ones that actually work have “deet” in them. So always look for that on the label
Thanks v much enjoying your tips xx

Avon, Skin so soft. Its lotion work great for me and good for skin too.
I lived in Mexico for almost a decade. Originally my budged was 400 per Mo, and was living well. At the end I was llving on half that, paid the rent and food, had to hustle for anything else. Great society!
Liberia, similar to Vietnam when I went
Where are you going next
So Alex, I m going to vietnam next month...could you tell me how to get to this view of halong bay 😀?
Safety for laptops while in room ? What about a Gym,(weights) work out accomidations?
hey! what bus companies did you catch rides from/ how did you go about finding them? im currently planning a bit for my trip to Vietnam and any websites for buses or trains average about 40$ which just seems way to high. LOVE your videos btw :)
Just get them when you’re there! They are sold at hostels, hotels, small shops, really everywhere. Booking ahead online might cost you more because only tourists do that. If you buy when there then you might get local price or close to it. Thanks for watching!
Alex Travelbum alright that’s kinda what I thought! thanks for responding man! 💛
In 2017,i took a sleeping bus from HaNoi to SaPa was 230.000~10USD,as i still remember ,The name is Hải Hà-Hải Vân bus company ,can check it out on google,normally,just give them a call to check the price and seat available few hours before or in the last minutes than let them known where i am for them to pick me up.when i finnished to travel SaPa ,i wanted to go to Cat Ba island-Hai Phong .there are 3 incredible beaches there. I called a sleeping bus to arrange again,they picked me up at Sapa market at 10.30pm than heading to Hai Phong , i slept on that bus well,i paid 220.000VND~ least than 10usd.when the bus arriving HaiPhong, the bus driver woke me up to ask me and droped me where i wanted.than i took a express boat to forward Catba Island at 7am .good experiences.when finished CatBa island,i took a furry to go to HaLong bay at 9am,only 1 route per day at 9am every day. I paid 70.000VND~3USD. Omg 😱😱😱 it was very very amazing scenery during the time when i stepped up on the top of furry for looking scenery around there. Love that feeling.
Cheapest place I have been to is Mexico 🇲🇽 and not Cancun or Tulum but Mexico City the capital as its mostly for business and for historical sites really good food and cheap accommodation and travel to other areas within the country ❤

Do you have any tips? I am going forum Six months
Wowza
Hi Alex. I'm going today to hanoi, thanks for the tips! Can you tell me where or how did you find the 25$ tour to halong bay? Cheers ;)
You can booking at any hotel with that price,just ask them. normally,almost the tour company will colect customers from these hotel as agency, it is a 5 hours tour on a boat to travel around Halong bay and visit some amazing caves.
You can travel in Kenya for cheap!
Hi.. Which month is better to go to Vietnam?
Bạn làm video số 1
step one: pay for a ticket to get to vietnam
Just wanted to let you know that now the e visa costs only 25 dollars from the government website isnt that great! Nice video btw :)
Awesome, thank you 🙏🏻
What’s the website? There’s so many and idk if it’ll be a scam
0:25 Have you ever wen't there sliding? Lol i wen't there and i lost my shoe
Haha that sucks, I didn’t go sliding there. But I’ve done it recently somewhere else and lost two flipflips
which exact months are off season?
Alex is Vietnam safe place to visit ?
Nice breakfast for a hostel
Cheap countries: Laos, Cambodia, Thailand being the more expensive :) Love Vietnam coming back again in January 2019
I never hear much about the Vietnamese train system, did you use it at all on your travels?
The busses you mean? I used them a lot and they were very good. I like how they have individual seats sleeper style so you can be comfortable and have your own space
@@AlexanderTravelbum no sorry I do actually mean train as in railway, supposedly there's a sleeper train from Saigon to Hanoi with numerous stops along the way
if u go for the sleeper cabin and dont get the top bunks it's pretty great ..coach and top bunks are pretty bad. Imo the sleeper busses are better for some reason
Hello..am going indonesia for a month how much could u live on a day on a budget in dollars...hope u can help
Where to get that Halong Bay boat ride for $25.00 USD?
vietnamese people is very friendly
Yes they are
do sleeper buses have wifi?
Kolkata,India.......The cheapest city in the world....trust me...
Ask me anything about traveling Vietnam! ------>
Alex, do you travel with USD or with the local currency?
How many days you spend in Vietnam??
@@JoshThom it's ideal to get the local currency (Dong) for the best exchange rate. You can get it changed for about 22000 for a dollar. VND is accepted everywhere there, Dollar not so much
Hi Alex, which exact tour did you take at halong bay for $25.-?
I have to ask-- IS agoda paying you to pimp their site? For me agoda is a below average for getting the best price
Can you book the sleeper buses online?
I believe you can, but I would book them at stores all over, easily found in main cities offering bus tickets. And to make it easy, it is possible to book at your hostel or hotel, or ask where to go to get them
Cambodia!
Yes! 🇰🇭
Awesome video! How did you find the 1-day tour for $25? Are there other cheaper tours around Vietnam that you recommend?
Thank you! I just booked the tour once I got to Halong. But they will be trying to sell you tours from the moment you get there, and even before. But don't go for the first choices. I waited and waited til I found the cheapest option. The further I went into town, the less expensive it was, and I haggled the price
Hi.. thank you for the awesome video.. i plan to visit halong bay but still confuse how to get there from hanoi airport do they have direct bus to halong or i should go to city first, and where i can get the tour, a wholeday tour only for $25, on the spot at the bay or somewhere else? thank you..
Ekklesia Arti
some people on youtube can find it for $15 U.S.D cover everything
The Best places are the places out of the tourist area, for good and cheap eating stay away from the tourist area. Eat local.
Anyone else plan on traveling Southeast Asia/ the world starting September 2020?
well this didn't age well.
@@xGSxAmAZyn nope, 2021 hopefully but greece/turkey instead
Go to Belarus. I'm sure it's cheap there.
Which month of the year did you go?
April, May
USA
I'm vietnamese and I assure all the things from him are true. But 10$ is lowest standard, for me I will spend 20$ 25$ per day, it depends. Vietnam is a cheap country, hope you guys can enjoy it
nepal
Portugal was soooo cheap went to Lisbon and it was crazy cheap
Cheap countries/cities that I've been to in Europe: Poland, Prague, Budapest.
Kyiv,Lviv,Odesa by far cheaper than those.
You can try Bangladesh. I think you will not find cheaper than Bangladesh.
I am making plans for Bangladesh in 2 months. Any tips, places to go other than Dhaka would be greatly appreciated
@@AlexanderTravelbum you need to bergain here as well regarding the prices. you can go to cox's bazar and saint martin island, saint martin is awsome. you can explore bandarban... hill tracking and water falls are great there, can explore sylhet and sundarbans, these all contains natural beauty. few historicals sites are available here as well. you can write me as well when you will be here, i am from bangladesh.
one more thing, regarding alchohol these place is a little bit strict.. best of luck.
thailand , laos and cambodia
Agoda app? Is that how you spell it?
Yes, Agoda
Vietnam or Krabi Thailand more cheaper?
Vietnam
1 week is enough for solo travel?
1 week in Vietnam? Should do 2-3
Great video! My husband and i are looking to go in February. If you dont really like street food, are restaurants expensive?
Good you’ll love it! No, for the most part even restaurants won’t be expensive. Some may be in the middle of tourist areas but still not expensive for most
@@AlexanderTravelbum thanks!!! Will definitely be watching more of your videos before we go!!!
You stay hostel name
The cheapest and the most beautiful country i went to is the cheapest and most beautiful country on the planet but because i got attack and robbed, it was also the most expensive but i got the live like a rock star for a few weeks before the event. Yes, i'm talking about Venezuela, the year air lines stopped landing there. Too bad it's so dangerous. I don't know how you can tell people how to travel a country for really cheap went it's you first time there yourself. I don't get it. Also, as a Canadian, what will happen if i present myself on a road border without visa? They should sell me one, not turning me back ? Can i get one in Cambodia for Vietnam ? Should i skip Thailand because it's a saturated country and many say it's now over price and also skip Cambodia because it's poor on nice beaches and just go to Vietnam ? I travel with home made scooter, i'm never on foot and can easily be outside beaten tracks anywhere. I love deserted beaches because all over tanning is the only way for me and of course, i am not a monk and like also fun with girls. I have three months. Of course, if i find paradise, i will spend the 3 months there instead of traveling all over those countries. Nice deserted beach, a cheap hotel and a few girls to take good care of me. i stay there !! Why looking elsewhere. What is the country between Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam i have the most chances to find my paradise? Thanks
