Tips and tricks
Be sure to try the famous Banh mi, a baguette sandwich with ham and vegetables. In street stalls, the prices may vary from 10,000 to 15,000 VND.
Thieves can approach you on motorbikes: it is a common situation in Vietnam. Walking along the sidewalk, do not carry a bag on your shoulder or hold a smartphone in your hands. All of these things can be stolen in a second!
Before going to local markets, make sure that you’re wearing regular clothes: the Vietnamese can identify tourists quite easily. If you choose a traditional conical hat as a part of your outfit, get ready for excessively high prices and long bargaining.
Be sure to check out Maison Marou chocolate shop, as they sell the best chocolate in the city. And there is a cafe as well: feel free to enjoy a lovely cup of coffee with a dessert!
Shopping lovers can head to the main shopping centres of Ho Chi Minh City, i.e. Saigon Centre and Vincom Dong Khoi, where many Western brands are represented. For luxury brands, head to Takashimaya Ho Chi Minh City.
Gourmet dinner can be arranged at EON 51 Heli Bar located in Bitexco Financial Tower. This is a perfect place to enjoy Asian cuisine while admiring panoramic views of the city!
If you want to try something more authentic, check out Lotteria lunchroom offering tasty Vietnamese fast food.
