The manager there is generally expecting 100k tip. If you are intending to tip him less than 100k, suggest that you do not waste money and tip him at all because the tip amount does not meet his expectation.

Unless you are looking for a very specific type of girl or girl that offer special service, i think it is ok not to tip the manager. This is because all the girl working there generally got certain standard.

For those not tipping, You can politely reject his request by saying you will tip him later if you are happy with the service.

Given that it is so easy to find sex in VN ..HCM especially, not sure this debate abt happy levels even matters...

How is the custom queue for arrival ? The last time I go on Aug , I almost queue for 2 hours just to get out of the airport . And the counter I go is the most slow. Damn i see my left and right counter , 5 people go thru already then our counter then go thru 1 person.

Never really dare to go thru the” express queue “. But if now still the same then maybe I will try contact the tiktok “express queue “

Heard from my friends said very long queue...need at least 45 min to 1 hour...

There were news recently that hcm hosted a group of businesses to invest in city and was highlighted that queue at immigration long...also Port Cat Lai traffic jam affected shipment...mentioned the hcm roads always flooded...

The hcm no longer attractive to investors...

I suggest you dun bother with express lane by paying...the express lane was setup for first class passengers who had paid high ticket costs...dun get into unlawful bribes and get u-turn after paying fines......")

If cannot wait long at immigration suggest you skip hcm...

The custom queue is terrible, daily.
if you wanna see short queue, only fly in or out hcm during late night weekdays only.
other times its long queue in and out of there. 30-45min wait if you're lucky...

They really only try this on with foreigners. In reality it's not expected. Just tip if you want to be a well liked guy and plan to return a lot.

Otherwise, only thing you need to pay is the ticket price and the tip for the girl. Anything else is totally unnecessary.

It’s S$40 for the express queue/fast track pass. Just buy through Klook or one of the many travel services beforehand. The normal line usually abt 1+ hour for me but yah, 2 hours quite possible. Anyway now most places also got long queue lah so I’ve gotten used to it.

Hello fellow samsters, I just booked a trip to HCM next week for 4d3n and its my first time there. Been chionging Thailand for the last 18years and totally clueless about how HCM works. About time to explore new pastuers.

Spent some time to read up as much info as I could but I would appreciate some tips so I can avoid being on the chopping board too much and waste unnessacary time.

Would appreciate tips on these areas:
FL/PR bars - are there any bars or clubs where I can go solo and find FLs or PRs there? How is the market practice for ST and LT over in HCM? Couldn't find any ktv or bars with open lounge area with such settings so far too. From google reviews, Catwalk seem to have open lounge with companions is that accurate?

Streets - 3 main streets being Japan street(mostly massage parlors with full svc), BuiVien street(bars with girls charging LDs but cannot tabao mostly), Pastuer street(no clue about this street), small street behind Saigon Center(pricey side, avoid)

Barbershop - any recommendations that gives a proper man haircut?
Hair salon - do the girls here also provide extras or strictly clean joints?

Massage shops - seems like {illegal non-sponsor - edited by mod} have been well known and a bigger establishment, and other notable places I can try too?

Bars with life band - any bars with live band that I can sit and chill that is also popular amongst locals?

Clubs - I remember years ago some clubs only allow locals to enter and drugs are an issue in these places, is this still the same situation now? I wish to visit one of those clubs with the hot Djs dancing just like what I see in tiktok videos ...but those videos always dont mention the club names -.-

Questions i still have:
- Which place does "C" refers too?
- Samsters mentioning 19-25yo at 2.5-3mil, where do I go to find such girls offering their services?
- Gaito - is this a website directory where okt post their girls for outcall?
- Does the beer gartens have PRs working or purely just dancers to hype up the place? Interested in visiting District K/The Gangs
- Are most hotels in D1 girl friendly? I would be staying in Sotetsu in D1

Many thanks in advance

@osamalee

mod will remove your thread if you continue to mention illegal non-sponsor for massage...

I suggest you support the legal sponsor in the sticky for hcm...they will send to your room...
