Hi me and the wife have just got to halong bay and intend to go to either of the 3 islands ,, and would just like to hear from anyone who may have recently been ? We just did 8 days on cat ba and loved the place and were paying 10$ per night which was good for us but few the booking sights online are showing just the top end places so would be great to hear anyone's experiences thanks a lot Kev

Hi I am travelling to Vietnam next week and am in need of advise! I am going with my boyfriend for 3 weeks, most of our hotels (other than 4 nights) and flights are booked but I was wondering how much we would need for spending money. We are flying to HCMC, heading through the Mekong to Phu Quoc and then flying up to Hanoi and either doing Ninh Binh/Tam Coc region OR Ba Be National park. Any advise on which one to go to?? We are also doing Halong bay and staying on Cat Ba island for 2 nights. We are not big spenders - ie. we are not big drinkers at all and plan on eating street food but will go for meals in restaurants as well. We would like to rent mopeds ETC and would like to go to cu chi tunnels when in HCMC and things like that. I am estimating to spend around £800-£1000 for the both of us on spending money - does this sound about right? Thanks for any advise!!

We are planning a trip to Vietnam. We are 2 Adults and a Child (age 5). Can you please suggest itinerary. We prefer to stay in clear, safe accommodation – 3 star is ok. We would like to see Historical Monuments, Beaches, local culture and a little local Shopping. Please suggest Itinerary for One week Trip (7 days). Any other info would be helpful Thanks
