Our First Time in Saigon Vietnam 🇻🇳 Shocked by Ho Chi Minh City! 😲
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มิ.ย. 2024
- It's our first time in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam! We were previously in the North of Vietnam but didn't have time to get to the south. Today we're exploring Saigon District 1 and 2 including some tourist hot spots. We also get a bit off of the tourist beaten path in the trendy District 2, Saigon.
We start things off in one of the main squares of Saigon that has the statue of Ho Chi Minh and is right next to City Hall (People's Committee Building). After walking around and trying to cross the street we make our way to the Saigon Central Post Office.
We then head almost next door to My Banh Mi where we have some absolutely delicious Banh Mi Sandwiches.
Because the main cathedral is right next door we head there. Unfortunately Notre Dame Cathedral of Saigon is under construction so you can't see much of it and can't go inside.
After visiting Ho Chi Minh City Book Street we go back to District 2 where we're staying.
District 2 is much more quiet than District 1, and seems to be the trendy and ex-pat area. We take a walk through the quiet streets and also grab a delicious Coconut coffee. Afterwards we take a walk around the trendy area.

Xin chào các bạn đã trở lại- Hello guys, welcome back!
@@jacko6064 🤗
Very interesting video! Me and my wife plan to travel to Vietnam in the near future and we watched this video together. Greetings from Croatia!
i would like to invite you two go drink some cup of Vietnam Coffee when you two come to Vietnam, i am a Vietnamese live near Ha Noi city
@@longta8852 Xin chào for your invitation! That's very kind of you.
@@darioshub hehe. Do you have facebook acount? I love and admire Croatia football team.
I can't wait to go back to Vietnam this August to visit Phu Quoc island, Dalat, Hue, Ha Long Bay and eat , eat, eat all the food!!!!! Let's go!!
That sounds like an epic trip right there! - Trevor
many foreigners are crazy about Vietnam foods, especially street foods like you, hehe
Go on the food tour in each of the city if you're not familiar with the food. "Chase and Shelbs" showed a great video from the waterpark in Phu Quoc (also amazing food tour in HCMC and great restaurant in Hue), "2Passports 1Dream" had a great video from Da Lat, "Alright Anton!" shows great drone footage from Hue and Ninh Binh, etc. If you go to Hoi An, "Steph and Shelbs" found an awesome food tour there and MomDuty used "Jack Tran Tours" for doing stuff around the area that looked so cool. And in Hanoi, MomDuty and "Flora and Note" had awesome food guides there. If you're adventurous, go caving in Phong Nha, do the mud bath and canyoning in Nha Trang, etc.
Beautiful there 😊
It is hard not to be in love with VIETNAM and the lovely people :-) agree ?
🥰🥰🥰🥰😘🤝
the girls there are beautiful
Hello friends, thank you very much for your pleasant experiences in Vietnam, I am the owner of Bin cafe, very happy to receive positive feedbacks about coconut coffee, wish you all good health and more good experiences in your travel ❤❤❤
Hello 👋 We luv your coffee and already can't wait to come back someday. District 2 is so much fun. We stayed just right down the alley road by your coffee shop - Trevor
I lived in district 2/Thao Dien for 3 years from 2019 to 2022......literally had my tears when I saw you guys walking down that area...so many memories and I miss it so much
We luv District 2! The whole city is great but it's super nice / trendy there. Did you move out of the city? - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers ya…..we relocated to India last summer because of work
Saigon was the first place I rode a motorbike!! I drove out to the Cu Chi tunnels and it was awesome. The traffic is crazy but you just have to literally go with the flow!! Some random family sheltered us when we got caught in a downpour out in the countryside. They were so so kind.
Happy Travels
Such a wild incredible city. We really like this place! - Trevor
Just like food there, helmets in Commie Vietnam don't pass safety tests, unfortunately. That's one of the reasons traffic deaths there top the list in the region.
I love Vietnam, I’ve always wanted to go Vietnam. I was thinking of going this year!🥰🥰
You should!
Thank you for sharing this interesting video of HoChiMinh city. I was born here. Now I live in Canada 🇨🇦. I am Vietnamese who moved to Canada 30 years ago. I miss Vietnam 🇻🇳.
Welcome back to Vietnam 🎉❤. It’s great to see you both again visiting Vietnam. Hope you will have memorable trips . 🤞🫶💕
Please call it Saigon!! It is a beautiful name and also it is easy to say as well!!!
We were already so excited for our trip to Vietnam in a few weeks but now we're even more excited after watching your video! Can't wait to try the coconut coffee, it looks delicious!
You guys will absolutely luv it! - Anna
Cam on 2 ban rất nhiều đã đen explore my country. From Canada. ❤😊❤
Good to see you coming back. Enjoy your time in Vietnam.
Chào mừng 2 bạn quay lại Việt Nam. Chúc những điều tốt đẹp nhất đến với 2 bạn! 😋😘
My late grandfather was an executive at the Saigon Post Office in the 1930's.

Try cơm tấm bà ghiền (broken rice with porkchop), bò lá lốt (grilled beef inside the betel leaves), $100 phở and bánh mì, spicy beef noodle, and more. Go to Phú Quốc Island and explore these caves between the central-North... There is so much more to explore, guys. Have fun!
Thanks for watching! - Anna
Cơm tấm Ba (3) Ghiền, không phải "bà"!

🤙
Wow its like Europe and Asia here. Very nice. Amazing video and details too. Wish u guys luck on ur trip.
Good morning Anna and Trevor, from one of your original fans and a fellow Canadian🇨🇦. A belated Happy New Year!!
Your video's are fabulous; you're great at filming, editing and your topics are always interesting and frequently educational. I'm happy to see you back in Vietnam. I love the idea of a book street and the narrow streets remind me of streets throughout Italy. See you next week, much love! xoxo
🥰 Thanks so much! That means the world to us and there's certainly no better street than book street - Anna
Nice. Glad you guys are open to stay in Vietnam for an extended time. I was born in Saigon and left as a toddler to the states. Been in the states for over 40 years now. Would love to go back and visit Vietnam.
You guys should check out Max McFarlin's videos. He has been living in Saigon for over 3 years I think. He actually speaks good southern Vietnamese now.
Excellent travels. Can’t wait to experience ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you🥰
🤗
Nice video. Great info. Looks so nice there. Looking forward to more.
Lots more on the way Karen! - Trevor
Thank you so much for taking me back to Vietnam 🇻🇳🙏❤️.. can't wait for the next one 😍🌺❤️.
Our pleasure Vicki! - Anna
Wonderful video I ever saw about my beautiful Saigon. Many youtubers but you are the best. I like it very much. Great job. Thanks.

You guys are the best. Thank you for coming to Vietnam. Please stay longer stay forever ☺️

Can't wait to visit Vietnam!
Hi Guys. Loved the intro to Saigon, Incedible city. Look forward to the next vid. Thx
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice video and beautiful nature 😍
🤙
Great to see you guys in Ho Chih Minh City! Yes, that place has the most hectic traffic I had ever seen. I was there in 2009. Scooters everywhere and people even rode on the sidewalks if they were impatient! I almost got hit while looking at fruit in a market! Couldn't get away from them! Hopefully you can try some 333 beers! 🍺
Welcome to Vietnam Nice to meet You two
Getting The New Day 😘☺
Your video quality is so good.
Glad you think so!
Welcome to Vietnam, thank you for sharing Vietnam with everyone. Wish you have a wonderful travel experience. From Việt Nam
I love coffee, so this is like coffee paradise
It really is a coffee lovers dream! - Trevor

Sabrina 🇫🇷🇬🇧
I am Việt Nam. Thanks for you talk about lovely Sai Gon. Hon Ngoc Vien Dong. Good luck to you.
Tip for crossing street in Vietnam:
Many tourist foreigners scared of traffic in VN . Don’t worry about it! The rule to win this fear is keep routin slowly walking when you across the streams of motobike! motor-bykers knows how to avoid you themself in chaos-order! remmember do not run and stop suddently , accident immidiatly ! Don’t be affraid off and do it if you want to be safety in the crazy- traffic in Vietnam.
Great advice! Thanks - Anna
Just came back from Saigon really love the country
You guys amazing thanks for visit our country from Canada Ontario ❤
😀
Cảm ơn hai bạn đã đến VN😍😍.Thăm thủ đô Hà Nội.Hiện lại trải nghiệm ở tp HCM.Hai người đã trải nghiệm phòng ngủ tàu vũ trụ chưa rất thú vị
❤🇻🇳
I like your VIDEO, Thank you very much you come back to Viet Nam.
i am glad to learn different perspective on my own country which i normally don't notice, thanks.
Chào các bạn 🙋 tôi tên An sinh ra và lớn lên ở Sài gòn đây 😂 chào mừng bạn đến thành phố tôi đang sống .
Tôi lướt youtube thì vô tình thấy video của bạn và bấm vào xem đây 😂
You two are so adorbs !!!!! TY !!!
Awe thanks! - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers YW!
Awesome video 👍
Thank Anna , and Travor for visit our city
Chào mừng 2 bạn quay trở lại đất nước xinh đẹp của chúng tôi .
We loved Ho Chi Minh City when we visited a few years ago! It's so nice to watch your video and see all the familiar places. The hardest part is crossing the street there. Hope you went to the Cafe Apartment on Nguyen Hue Street! We've been in Da Nang for January, but heading back to Bangkok tomorrow. Cheers :)
It's good fun crossing the road lol
Wow when I saw your video popped up I thought it was an old video from last year, so refreshing to see you guys in Vietnam again . The expats stay in district 2 and 7, district 7 was a planned urban area with lots of parks, almost like Irvine California, give it a visit if you still in Vietnam.
Woohoo.. so happy to be back and we're glad the video is showing up for you. We heard a lot about District 7 as well. Saigon is incredible! - Trevor
好看👍
👍
First Time in Saigon Vietnam , i am happy you guys like sai gon . enjoy there
🤙
Cảm ơn các bạn đã cho xem video tuyệt vời về Sài Gòn!
You guys are different to others. You have discovered Vietnam instead of eating and drinking actually. I appreciate 🥳
🤗
Wow you guys know how to make video , love them all . What month was it in Saigon ? Thank you
Travel is a wonderful experience, for sure! Enjoy your time there.
Re: religion... just because a large percentage do not have a religion, does not mean they are atheists, they just do not go to church or practice the Buddhist way, etc. They just don't do anything. Some are atheists, certainly, but not all. Happy to know that there are more and more Christians there.
Your video quality seems going better now.
Loved book street! If you liked I Must Betray You, try The Fountains of Silence. Amazing! Can't wait to see the food tour next time.
Good to know! 🤗 - Anna
Hey guys! Sorry, I’m a few videos behind, but I really want to be able to pay attention to your videos when I watch them. I’m trying to find a place to go this year and I was exploring Thailand as an idea…but oh man Vietnam looks amazing. I actually think that coffee sold me lol 😬 I want that so bad!
No worries Matty haha. It tough to pick between the two really. Both countries are amazing! 🤙 - Trevor
You guys are lovely people with great personalities. 😇
😊 thank you
I like it ..will be try
🤙
Congrats to Vietnam. I herd it closed [ not sure ] there was a funky McDonalds next to that post office. Delicious Banh Mi [ pork for me ] Absolutely love breweries, almost no 1 films them in Vietnam and never could understand why. Great job and great video.
We so dig this city! - Trevor
I can't wait to go back!! I was there in November and very excited to return in April!! If you get the chance have the green rice ice cream or any ice cream flavor! The ice cream is amazing just like the Vietnamese people!!
I missed everything about this city. I really enjoyed your vid.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Chào mừng hai bạn đã đến trải nhiệm .ở miền bắc cũng như miền Nam .Việt nam 💖💖💖

Welcome to my city! I am a Viet-American and also a travel/food TH-camr. I was born there and relocated to the US a while ago. Your vlogs are so great with relaxing presentation. I'm your newest follower, haha. Have a wonderful time in Saigon! Check out my Vietnam videos when you have time to relax. I was in Vietnam last year and travelled from North to South filming the whole thing. Hope you enjoy it. Cheers!
We were supposed to be in Ho Chi Minh City next week, but we hit a glitch. So very disappointed. But we hope to visit sometime. Will enjoy your videos.
Thanks for watching! - Anna
