Thank you so much.. I like your videos.. And I'm.coming to Vietnam in June and wanted to meet you and explore the Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam with you.
For those who want to travel to Vietnam, life here is very comfortable and easy to adapt, so don't worry. All you need to install these apps her had recommended!

Hello there! Thank you for your tips. Very very helpful. Will be traveling to Hue for a conference soon. May I ask if grabpay PH in peso can be used for grab car or taxi? Thank you so much
Hello! I really like your channel, it's super informative! Next year I'll go to Vietnam as an exchange student and I have a choice to choose USSH in Hanoi or in Ho Chi Minh, can you please recommend which city is more comfortable to live for a student? And do you have any recommendations since I know very little about living in Vietnam, maybe some things which is forbidden, cultural stuff and so on
Hi. i'm not vietamiese, but all of my vietnamiese friends said me : vietnamiese people of the south are more open mind than vietnamiese of the north. So it seems more easy to make friends in HCM than in Hanoi. I visited HCM 2 time, and vietnamiese people from HCM are very friendly.
There is a Russian youtuber that used to live in Vietnam and even got married to a Filipino women there called Dimitri West. They have tons of videos on Vietnam.
Thanks so much, darling. I am brazilian and your information about PC covid helped a lot. I have seen you answered it is not more necessary. It is so good. Could you make a video about visa on arrive on internacional airport ? I subscrived me in your Chanel. Very cool!😍
Thanks for sharing this video I am planning to visit Vietnam in January can you please tell me about the weather condition in January is it hot or cold or rainy
Thank you so much for your great clip. Do you know if the VN gov't still requires the covid app or test for covid if we come in from the States as of 07/2023? does anybody know? Thanks. Kim
Hi Ena. My mom and I will be first time travellers in Vietnam this April. Do we need to buy a Vietnam sim with phone # before we can use the Grab Car App in Vietnam? Thanks in advance
Hi thank you for the video and all the information provided. I have a question, I am travelling to Vietnam next month, it is required to download the pc-covid and make the health declaration? I tried to do it but it asks for city, district, Ward/Commune etc but I don't know because I haven't booked anything yet. Thank you!
Excellent video! By any chance, do you know the operating hours of the airport shuttle or bus #86 to go from Hanoi airport to the city center? I am going to reach there at 4:30 am so want to know how long I will have to wait if I want to take the bus and not spend on taxi.
Hi we are traveling to Vietnam on the 28th of January for the 1st time, so I just wanna know if I need to buy sim card for me to install the mai linh/vinasun apps? Thanks you im your new subscriber.
Hi can you answer me maybe if g pay is a widely soread payment option? Im in trouble and wont have a physical card so i need to know if that will work. Cam on ☺️
Hello, Another great video ! Some questions: 1) Is Health Declaration still required to enter in Vietnam ? If so, how can I fill this form ? 2) Can I link a Visa/Debit Card on Grab/Gojek apps instead use cash to pay the rides ? 3) Do Taxis in Vietnam work with METER or there is a fix price for each ride ? Thank you so much for your help.
Thank you for the video. For the Grab food delivery or Grab car ride I assume I can use credit card to pay? No difference in terms of using cash vs credit card? For the grab food delivery I just need to pay the total no need to pay extra for tips? Thanks
Yes correct! you can used debit/credit card. If your card is local Vietnamese bank, there are rewards or cashback of course, but mainly there's no price diff paying cash or card. you may give a tip, it's up to u but it not that usual in VN.
m trying to use it but it suspended me the moment I created my account and then won't let me use it till I verify and it rejects my verification what do I do?
Hi Ena, thanks a lot for the informative video. Do you happen to know any muslim friendly street foods (no pork no lard) around Hanoi City? A muslim girl is doing her solo travel this January. Thanks in advance! ❤️
its still okay to visit Da Nang until May, but in Hanoi there's a slight chance of rain. i do agree with hoàng, it's really hot when it's summer especially here in Ho Chi Minh City.
Well It depends each season has different kind of weather and activities. If you go in May "summer time" the weather could be hot from the North to the south except Da Lat-the weather is really cool and temperature is normally under 23°c . From my point of view, I highly recommend Da Nang or Da lat if you want to visit this month.
Hi, we are going to Dalat next month. Are there selling tourist sim card at the airport? What kind of adapter plug they are using? How much is bike renting/day? Tqvm
Yes they're selling sim in airport and also on phone shops, with the plug im not sure what it is called but you can check my recent vietnam hotel room tour, i share it there.
Do you have to pay in cash or cc when using GRAB? I remember there was once in vietnam? or cambodia? i cant remember.. Settlement have to be in cash some how..
Can you do a video on Nha Trang? They got very cheap grilled lobsters on the beaches. Also, they have a theme park on a private island called Vinpearl Land. You should check out a thai vlogger called Backpaeger.
I've been there once, it's a nice place, great for tourism, although i wasn't sure about seafood prices, but thanks for the tip! I bet anything with Vin on it's name is a pricey place... yea i'll check your recos Backpaeger, i'll stalk that channel hehehe
@@enafrancia If you want to try food locals eat in Saigon then you might want to watch this Vietnamese youtube - PM Food Travel (He has English subs). It would be interesting to watch you try the more authentic Vietnamese food then the ones for upper class/expats. The food will be more 'weird' and 'risky' since its for the locals. th-cam.com/video/nf4ssWbI2Uo/w-d-xo.html

Hello,
Another great video !
Some questions:
1) Is Health Declaration still required to enter in Vietnam ? If so, how can I fill this form ?
2) Can I link a Visa/Debit Card on Grab/Gojek apps instead use cash to pay the rides ?
3) Do Taxis in Vietnam work with METER or there is a fix price for each ride ?
Thank you so much for your help.
1) no more health declaration
2) yes but not recommended because currency exchange is very low
3) taxis work with METER
Going to da nang for 12 days with my wife for our honeymoon. Just wondering how much spending money you think we should bring
Thank you for the video. For the Grab food delivery or Grab car ride I assume I can use credit card to pay? No difference in terms of using cash vs credit card? For the grab food delivery I just need to pay the total no need to pay extra for tips? Thanks

Second question, what is the amount you will pay to renew it
Cốc Cốc used to be Vietnamese Google of Vietnam.
i haven't actually use it much, but really interesting app
Hey thanks for sharing - 1 Question please - is May too hot to visit Hanoi and Da Nang? Or should we visit instead in September/October?
Summer is hot and humid everywhere in vietnam. However, May is better than Sept/Oct, less rain. Best to go in dry season from Dec- April
its still okay to visit Da Nang until May, but in Hanoi there's a slight chance of rain. i do agree with hoàng, it's really hot when it's summer especially here in Ho Chi Minh City.
Well It depends each season has different kind of weather and activities.
