I read that they are having the raid now in Vietnam but not sure whether it is a good time to go in Oct and Nov. Like some countries such as china, in this instance, alway have raid during Aug to Oct.
Cause I have never been to Vietnam before, I am not sure where to do exchange although I read that it is better to change in the market. Since, Vietnam is better, I guess I will follow the norm.
As for the cost, to cheong in "wetnam" for S$600 a night, I feel it is abit on the high side. Just my opinion.
Once again, thanks!!!
Well i do think that price is roughly the guide if you do not know nuts and no seniors are willing to bring you around and fall prey to those fellows out to fleece you , if cannot afford , then please stay in SG and wank your way home.
Wanna go travel wanna play just pay , want cheap don't wanna pay for seniors , don't go out . This probably applies to everywhere you go , no limited to merely HCMC. Just think who will wanna entertain some unknown fellow from SG without any contact number neither a face to relate to and brings the newbie around places spoiling his own market?
Bro iSaigon, I don't know where u got the impression that I don't want pay or want cheap. Basically I guess it is ur own imaginative. I never ask anyone to entertain and I don't need too. I can find my own way there. I am just asking for some opinion. For $600 dollar I guess I would rater go to other places like China who is my opinion. Think u smart? Good luck than...

dude this is the point he is making...if u think u can find your way around...which a guarantee you wont, then what u find on your own, then you will be paying those prices mention, and for someone who has NEVER been to vietnam, you certainly are sure about what can be done here and what the price should be. If u want gals that are 10 to fuck then surely they will be more expenise to fuck than girls that are 5. The fact is in some people mind 600 a days is reasonable if they want top quality and so when u say 600 isnt worth it, then yes whether its right or not, there is a case to call u cheap. The next point is whilst u didnt want anyone to entertain u..you are comming here asking for advice, so wouldnt it be smart to swallow some humble pie and be a little less annoying...and yes if you rather go to china..please do so, given what i have seen and heard about china cheongsters, i prefer they didnt come here.
Finally if you are teh "smart" one, you would have read jerkface reoprt where he included price for food and cheong in his report.
What's with D12? Don't mind sharing? Will be going on 22-25 August, so pardon my newbie question. First time alone also, keen for some adventure.
Would be helpful if bro can enlighten me on whether in between district, example D1 and D2, the distance is akin to like Yishun and Sembawang, or like Jurong to Changi. Will be useful for planning.
Thanks for any help.
no one seems to point it out for u, d12 is very far outside of the city away from most cheong choices in the otehr districts, yes i know some cheong options in d12, mostly cafe with hj/bj and massage, but these places are very far from each other asnd in what would be in locations that could be viewed as villages, unless u know ur way around and have a bike and know vietnamese you will be overwhelmed
roughly how much is tough to answer...to me i only need 100k to survive per day...but if you plan disco (maybe 3-5mil), need a gal overnight (3mil), go another disco (another 3 to 5mil), go supper (500k-1mil) then you need 10mil per day which is SGD 600 or USD 480 per day...include taxi, hotel stay, etc...
i call bullshit u use 100k a dayhs, ur hotel is already 2-300k, when u go coffee at mifa it costs u min 50k include gal tips, ur xe om driver..min 50k again, local priice per meal 16-25k...so unless u live under tarp and only go cafe and have 2 meals a day...id like u to breakdown ur 100k..xao wa vua phai thoi ong
And to put it in perspective I AM CHEAP...i live here and inclusive of EVERYTHING i use 6-8mill a month

$600 which includes meals,transport,2 disco trips,and a gal for overnite..i feel its quite reasonable unless the 2 disco trip is just a few pints of beer and not bott of liquor.
if i am not wrong,u mention abt wanting to go discos here..
although i am just a bit familiar with the disco scene here,i give u some advice on the prices.
a bott of normal liquor e.g Martell,Hennessy,Chivas etc will cost u abt 2 mills Vnd unless u getting their 1+1 or 2+1 offer.a can of mixer is about 80k-90k Vnd.a plate of fruit platter is about 200k-300k.Shisha is 300k-400k.all the price is before 10% service charge and 10% government charge.so from here u can do ur own calculation.
dude this is the point he is making...if u think u can find your way around...which a guarantee you wont, then what u find on your own, then you will be paying those prices mention, and for someone who has NEVER been to vietnam, you certainly are sure about what can be done here and what the price should be.

I did not say isn't worth it. If u put in 10 than it is another ball game all together. However, from what I read from the last few post, it is really high side base on my opinion.
Anyway, I asking for opinion not here to make enemy. Please ignore my post If u think what I say doesn't sound nice. The word also doesn't sound nice to a newbie like me too.
I will leave the forum of Vietnam for now and stand behind far far away and see. Thanks for those who have help me to answer any question! Hehe. Good luck guy.
As mentioned, it is difficult to say what is enough for a day... it depends a lot on individual... btw it is crazy to ask an open ended question like this.... u will definitely have various answers and arguments.
Anyway, "Hello Vietnam" for all.....

Haha, it is not with "D12" but the fact that he is alone in none popular tourist areas. Personally for me, anything within the river and won't take more than an hour is walkable but when you have to cross the bridge, take xe om/ cab sua...

Bro , I think S$600 is more than enough for the whole trip exclude airfare. Stay in a small hotel which can accommodate 3 pples , same room rental. Everyday buy roti fm roadside stall cost 30k for 2, 2 meal 60k. Drink plain big bottle water cost 12k, each day 3 bottles. Drink beer buy fm street vendor very cheap, dun know how much for I dun drink beer. For bonking, going down stairs wait outside hotel for packer Ang Mo maybe can even get free bonk (share bed with Ang Mo). So very cheap, so dun tell me cannot be done OK. I just came fm there. Bro H88, Bro Jerkface and urself can witness my present there. Can be done , only want or not !!!!

only a local resident can see thru my intended error..very difficult to answer question that is what i dun know...i always ask newbies...tell me what you want then i can answer exactly...
yes...100k per day is impossible...i need to pay hotel and my transport and food...but maddog is right...sgd 600 is definitely enough for me for 5d4n...
