New years celebrations!
We landed in saigon after a night in Manila and what a warm welcome it was. Saigon is incredibly steamy and takes time to get used to the heat!
We stayed in a fantastic place recommended by Leanna (thank you!), right in the centre of the city with a rooftop bar/restaurant. Great for chilling out in the heat of the day. We will definitely recommend it to anyoneDuc Vuong Hoteland their motto is “We Are Family”!! Love it!

Vietnamese Cuisine
The food in Saigon was fantastic, Pho, bbq meats and more. We ate and ate. Oh my! Whilst wandering through the backstreets we were also treated to have pics and food with locals celebrating the new year. Rice wine was handed around (very potent) and some sort of dried fish, along with the most horrible tasting ‘sweets’. Locals posed with us and great fun was had!
