Détails concrets...si cela peut vous servir !
Voulant profiter de l'exemption de visa pour un séjour de moins de 16 jours sur place, je suis partie du 3 au 18 décembre en me consacrant à Hué, Hoi an, delta du mekong et Saigon.
vol Viet Nam airlines : Paris/Hanoi/Hué puis Danang/Saigon et Saigon/Paris : 730 euros, acheté 4 mois avant le départ. Aller de nuit avec Viet Nam airlines, on peut s'enregistrer 24h avant le vol mais sur le site Air france ! Ce qui permet de choisir son siége et éditer sa carte d'embarquement. Pour le retour j'avais un vol VN mais assuré par AF donc là aussi pré enregistrement possible sur le site AF mais pas de possibilité de choisir son siége si tout le vol a été acheté sous le code de viet nam airlines. En se présentant bien 3h avant le décollage , pas de soucis pour choisir son siège.
A l'arrivée à Hanoi, et malgré ce que l'on vous dit en France, il faut récupérer son bagage que l'on confie à une hôtesse VN pour le ré enregistrer pour une correspondance et ensuite changer de terminal (on passe de l'international au national) en prenant un bus.
le temps : je n'ai eu que de la pluie ! Je n'ai vu du ciel bleu que la matinée du 17, veille de mon retour, avec beaucoup de pluie à Hué, ciel gris et pluie plus éparses à Hoi an, pluie et ciel trés gris dans le delta. A saigon : pluie fine, averses fréquentes, avec châleur et humidité constante.
argent : à l'arrivée j'ai changer à Hué : 1euros : 24 000vn
J'ai réglé mes hôtels et les restaurants (hors les boui boui des marchés et dans la rue), ainsi que mes excursions en dollars.
4 jours à Hué : hôtel Thanh Noi (30$/nt en single avec petits dej) bien avec beau jardin, piscine, dans la citadelle. Il y a un cyber café juste derriére le restaurant de l'hôtel. Endroit de séjour parfait car à pied on peut tout visiter, on y trouve des petits restaurants dans chaque rue et trés peu de touristes, certaines ruelles font penser que l'on est à la campagne ! Commençant par visiter la citadelle j'ai acheté le billet à 360 000 vn permettant de visiter ensuite les tombeaux ce que j'ai fait le lendemain lors d'une excursion organisée qui ne comprenait pas les entrées aux sites.
L'hôtel m'a proposé un transfert de Hué à Hoi an de 8h à 14h pour 12$ avec un bus qui s'arrête en route pour des visites en passant par le col des nuages.
2 jours Hoi An : hôtel An Huy (30$ en single sans petit dej) : trés bien situé dans le quartier français donc sans va et vient de la foule, insister pour avoir la (seule)chambre avec terrasse, vous aurez une vue sur les jolis toits et des meubles en bois typiques ainsi qu'un beau parquet. Pour profiter de la ville, commencer par un bon petit dej au marché (à 4 minutes de l'hôtel) puis baladez vous devant les étals du marché avant qu'il y ai trop de monde et que les maisons si jolies de cette ville se transforment, une fois ouvertes, en boutiques, bars et restaurants bruyants.
Excellent restaurant en face de l'hôtel : le Brother Café dans une villa coloniale au bord de l 'eau où vous faites un festin pour
16 $ et goûtez à des spécialités mises en scène avec talent telle la salade de papaye. Transfert en taxi privé pour Danang (45mn de route) pour 12$, commandé par l'hôtel.
vol Danang Saigon : 1h10, à l'arrivée voulant prendre un bus pour filer sur can tho dans le delta du mekong, j'avais entendu parler du bus 119 qui fait l'aéroport-le terminal de bus mais en 1h10. J'ai opté cependant pour un taxi : 40 mn pour 7euros.
Au terminal j'ai demandé au taxi de me déposer devant le guichet de FUJA, la compagnie de bus oranges aux employés habillés en orange (face à l'entrée de la gare, le guichet est l'un des premiers sur la droite). En 3h j'arrivais à Cantho.
Je suis restée1nuit à l'hôtel 31b prés des quais pour 10$ la nuit, chambre exigue mais propre et salle de bain correcte. Sur les quais on vous aborde pour vous proposer le lendemain un tour en bateau au marché de cai rang. J'ai rencontré un couple et à 3, nous avons négocié pour 30$ 4h de balade en petit bateau à moteur. Le marché de la ville est sympa à voir avec des poissons étranges dans les paniers, des anguilles et autres crustacés.
Ben Tre : il y a un bus direct de can tho à ben tre à 13heures !
Y être avant car il se rempli rapidement de passagers et marchandises et c'est un mini bus dont le billet s'achéte aux comptoirs presque face à la sortie auprés de dames en bleue.
Le trajet dure 3h...
Ben tre : 1 nuit hôtel Hung Vuong (25$ sans petit dej) : trés bien, au bord de l 'eau avec restau pour prendre petit dej (en sus) ainsi qu'une agence de voyage Nambo tour où je vous suggére de réserver votre tour car ici personne en vous aborde pour une excursion !!! Marché à 10mn à pied ainsi que le marché de nuit animé et nombreux restau dans les rues proches.
De Ben tre, nombreux bus pour saigon : 2h de routes
Saigon : 6nuits Little Saigon Boutique hotel (45$ sans petit dej): trés bien placé dans une ruelle de la rue Le Loi, à 6 mn du marché Ben thanh, à5mn du quartier colonial, bref super emplacement et si en plus vous avez une des chambres avec balcon vue sur la tour symbole de la ville, c'est le must ! La ville étant encombrée, je partais en taxi vers 7h pour me rendre dans les quartiers que je voulais visiter : pagode de l 'empereur de jade, cholon, jardin botanique (ne pas manquer le musée d'histoire à côté). Les taxis sont peu chers et je prenais mon temps pour rentrer à pied, le nez en l'air pour découvrir des 1e étages souvent de type "coloniaux" alors que les rez de chaussés étaient plus modernes et adaptés aux besoins du propriétaire.
Une journée à vung Tau : descendez la rue pasteur, au bout traversez la route puis traverser le pont et au bout descendre à gauche, suivre le trottoir et vous arrivez au port. En achetant le ticket la veille cela m'a permis d'apprendre que les bateaux de 8h et 9h étaient annulés donc départ 10h retour 16 heures.
Quitter la moiteur de la ville fait du bien l'air y est doux mais rien d'extraordinaire durant cette journée, à l'arrivée j'ai pris un taxi (j'en ai eu pour moins de 10 euros)pour monter au phare (vue superbe), puis aller voir le plus grand christ du monde, et enfin il m'a déposé à la villa Doumer d'où je suis rentrée en ville à pied avec poisson grillé pour déjeuner dans la rue des poissonniers. 1h30 de trajet vers saigon par trajet.
Si vous aimez le canard laqué laissez vous tenter par un bon repas au 116 pasteur dong (en rentrant de l'excursion par exemple) à cette adresse qui ne sert que du canard !
Voilà, je concluerais en disant qu'il est trés facile de voyager au viet nam, contrairement à ce que j'avais entendu les gens sont souriants (même les hôtesses Vn !), gentils et prévenants, je leur tire mon chapeau d'être arrivé à devenir si moderne et avancer si vite après tant d'années de déboires et d'horreurs. La vie locale commence tôt le matin et les imiter permet de ne pas se sentir "noyer"dans la population ou les touristes !
Merci à Asia7 qui m'a aidé dans l'élaboration de ce projet de voyage en répondant à mes questions parfois si futiles !!!
Bon Vent et bonne découverte !

Hi, I’ve read that these two volcanoes are super popular and that there are *tons* of people for sunrise, especially in July. I’m looking for firsthand accounts from anyone who’s done it later, around 9–10 a.m.
Thanks for your help!

Has anyone traveled with the Laos travel agency ADV ?
I’m planning a trip to Laos and have received several quotes. Among them, this agency’s seem very reasonable, and so far, the interactions have been positive.
I’ve found a few positive reviews online, but I’d love to hear from travelers who’ve actually booked with them: how’s the organization, guide quality, accommodations, on-the-ground responsiveness, etc.
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
First stop on our discovery of the peninsula: Amphawa. It’s our first night in Thailand (we arrived at Suvarnabhumi at 8:50 AM).
Our initial plan was to explore the area before heading further south. The Mae Klong Railway Market is tempting... but what else is there to do????
We’ll be there on a Wednesday, and from what I’ve read on the forum, some say there’s absolutely nothing to do during the week—no floating market, barely any shops open, no restaurants, etc.
Others, though, say the place is actually more charming without the weekend crowds.
Could you share your thoughts? Missing the floating market is one thing, but if it’s really a ghost town on Wednesdays, I might just drop our bags somewhere else.
Amphawa seemed like a good first stop, just 1.5 hours from the airport, but I’d still like to settle somewhere a bit lively for our first evening.
We’ll be there at the end of October.
Thanks!
Hi,
I wanted to visit the plantations in the morning with GetYourGuide or by just showing up.
How much time should I really plan for?
I’d like to catch either the 3 PM or 5 PM bus back to KL.
Thanks
Hi,
I wanted to get some info about the cable car and the bridge—I see lots of different options...
How much time should we allow for these two activities? If we arrive around 4 PM, will we have enough time to visit without rushing?
Thanks
Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Hi,
On September 1st, we're heading to Kalimantan for six weeks, probably from Pontianak to the Derawan Islands.
I've scoured this site, which is usually my go-to 😉, and others like VoyageForum, but recent info is pretty scarce.
I'd love any tips on places you've visited—our itinerary is still a work in progress.
We're two couples traveling with backpacks, using buses, boats, guesthouses, and homestays.
Thanks in advance!
Hi fellow travelers,
First trip to Vietnam.
We’ll be arriving in Ho Chi Minh City during Tet.
Is it complicated to find accommodation and get around during this period?
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks for your replies.
Hi! I’d like to split my trip into two parts: 15 days in Phuket and 15 days in Krabi. Do you know if I can rent a car and drop it off in Krabi when I fly back to France?
Thanks for your feedback!
Have a great Sunday!

Hello,
After 1 night in Khao Sok, I’d like to find a 2 Days 1 Night package on the lake.
After reading a lot, I decided to "break the bank" and treat ourselves to a private tour—mainly to avoid the crowds.
But after contacting several operators, they offer "private tours" that are very expensive (around 700 €), yet in the details, the boats can only leave from the pier at 10 AM like everyone else. (I was hoping to leave much earlier.) The morning program is the same for everyone too (private or not). They drop us off at noon at our floating hotel (I’d chosen Phupha Waree). Free afternoon (swimming or kayaking in front of the hotel). We head back by boat for a 1-hour sunset ride. And the next morning, we leave the hotel at 8 AM to be at the pier by 9:30 AM at the latest—end of the trip.
So basically, we’re paying a lot for a private tour just to do the same thing as everyone else at the same time.
Or maybe I just had bad luck in my search.
I contacted Panida Ladi, who’s very popular on forums. We’d agreed on a private tour that matched my request (departure from the pier at 8 AM, very personalized itinerary). We settled on the itinerary and price, she asked for a Wise transfer for a 30% deposit, confirmed receipt of the deposit. Then 30 minutes later, she messaged me to say she was canceling everything because it was impossible to do the requested tour—and promised a quick refund of my deposit.
So here’s my question: Who’s done a *real* private tour on this lake? Who can recommend a reliable agency? Is it even really possible to do a private tour here?
I’m searching for a real gem for my 3rd stay in Koh Lanta: a lovely, high-quality hotel right by an easily accessible beach in a lively spot.
If you know of anything that fits what I’m looking for and want to share, don’t hesitate!
Hi, is anyone there in Flores right now? According to some websites, everything is closed and the situation is tough. But our guide says it's fine. Who should we believe? We're supposed to leave on September 2nd. Thanks to anyone in Flores at the moment!
Hi dear community,
I'm planning to visit Cambodia this winter, right after Christmas, for my first solo trip and my first trip to Asia. For two weeks (yes, I know it's short, but I really can't do more...). I have two main desires: Siem Reap and the countryside, the villages, the Mekong...
What do you think of this itinerary? Arrival in Siem Reap, departure from Phnom Penh.
SR: 5 days (1 day for arrival, 3 for the temples, 1 for the lake and its villages)
Kratie (stop on the way to Mondolkiri): 3 days (1 day of travel, 2 days there)
Mondolkiri/Sen Monorom: 4 days (1 day of travel, 1 day there, 2 days of treks)
PP: 3 days (1 day of travel, 2 days of sightseeing)
I think I need to cut one day somewhere if I travel from Saturday to Saturday or Sunday to Sunday. In Kratie, maybe? Or in PP? And I'll miss the boat trip that everyone recommends (SR-Battambang), but I don't see where to fit it in. Unless I do a PP-PP loop starting in the east, skip Kratie or just stay one night, then SR, then PP.
In my timing, Mondolkiri seems closer than Ratanakiri, which also tempted me a lot! Will it be too complicated alone? I'm thinking of using local guides or a small local agency for a nature and village getaway.
I've read that Siem Reap is very crowded between Christmas and New Year's. I could also do the circuit in the opposite direction. But I thought it would be easier to get familiar with the country by arriving in a touristy area—I might be wrong...
Thanks for your advice and opinions!
Hi everyone.
I’m planning my trip, and based on all the posts I’ve read, this country is amazing.
Of course, I’ve got a ton of questions for you.
Here’s a possible itinerary: Vientiane - Vang Vieng - Phonsavan - Sam Neua - Nong Khiaw + villages - Phongsali - Luang Namtha and the area - Udomxai - Huay Xai - Luang Prabang and back to Vientiane.
What do you think?
We’re planning to prioritize local transport—is it possible to do this loop?
We’d also love to go kayaking, but I’m not sure if the season’s right or where the best spot is.
For trekking—I read that Phongsali is the most authentic spot to visit villages and see wildlife. Do you know of a reliable agency and a guesthouse with reasonable prices?
Is it worth taking a slow boat for a stretch on the Mekong, and if so, which route?
For accommodations, is it better to book through Booking.com and Agoda or look when we arrive?
Are mosquitoes bad in Laos, and should we take malaria prophylaxis?
What’s the average daily budget (accommodation, food, visits)?
Is renting scooters a good option for exploring towns, and if so, which ones?
From what I’ve read, it’s best to carry cash—euros or dollars? Is it risky to walk around with that much cash?
I’ve still got tons of questions. Thanks to anyone who can help, and I’m open to all tips, info, etc.
Thanks again
Hi there,
I’m planning a trip to Vietnam in February, specifically Da Nang and Hoi An.
Does anyone know a French-speaking guide in the area?
Thanks for your help
Hi there,
I’m planning a family trip (my wife and I, both 47, and our two sons, aged 5 and 12) to Malaysia for the last week of June and the first two weeks of July 2027.
We used to love road trips as a couple, then as a trio, but since our second child arrived, we’ve taken a break with "camping village" style trips.
Now feels like the right time to get back to our old habits, while adjusting the pace for the kids.
We’re craving Asia. We’ve been lucky enough to visit Thailand, Indonesia (Bali and Lombok), and Sri Lanka before.
Friends have raved about Malaysia, so we’re definitely tempted.
For those who know and love Malaysia, what would be a good itinerary starting from Kuala Lumpur, with a maximum of 3-4 stops? We’d like a mix of culture, nature, and relaxation (just to clarify, we’re not big beach fans). All of this without rushing, of course.
Hello,
We’re a family of four with two teens aged 16 and 18. We’re heading to Thailand this summer. We’ll arrive in Bangkok and plan to take a flight to Luang Prabang.
I’ve seen there are some great visits and excursions to do (temples, markets, waterfalls) and maybe even venture a bit north to places like Nong Khiaw, Muang Xay, Muang Ngoy, or Oudom Xay.
But I’ve also heard about the Bokeo region with the Gibbon Experience.
Since we won’t be able to do everything, I’d love to hear about your experiences, impressions, and advice on the two options I’m considering, especially since we’ll be meeting family in Chiang Mai, Thailand, afterward.
Option 1: A loop from Luang Prabang heading slightly north, then a flight from Luang Prabang to Chiang Mai.
Option 2: A few days in Luang Prabang, exploring within a few dozen kilometers around, then heading to Bokeo province for the 2-day/1-night Gibbon Experience. For this option, I saw on Rome2Rio that it’s possible to book a ferry trip on the Mekong from Luang Prabang to Huay Xay—they mention about 8 hours. But is that realistic? What type of boat is it?
Then, to get to Chiang Mai, there aren’t many options—bus or minivan—but how does crossing the border work?
Finally, for those of you who’ve been to Laos in August, what was the weather like?
We’ve already visited Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia during the same period over the past four years and weren’t really bothered by bad weather.
I’m starting a discussion about guides in the Mekong Delta because we’ve just finished our trip in this region and had a hard time finding a French-speaking guide. We had Thanh—she speaks French really well and travels all over the delta region, including Ho Chi Minh City. She’s super friendly and flexible. I recommend her wholeheartedly. If it can help someone...
Feel free to contact us for her number.
Hi everyone,
I couldn’t find any recent info on Kuching.
Can anyone recommend a hotel or guesthouse for under 100 RM that’s nice and affordable? No dorms, please.
Also, does it rain a lot in November, and is it still worth visiting Semenggoh or Bako?
We’ll be arriving in Phnom Penh this coming January and we’re thinking of starting our trip with a stop in Kampong Cham, then Kratie.
After Kratie, we’re considering heading toward Siem Reap with a stop in Kampong Thom.
That said, I’m not really sure how long the Kratie–Kampong Thom journey might take or how complicated it is.
Does this stop on the way to Siem Reap seem like a good idea to you?
If we don’t visit the Sambor Prei Kuk site, are there still any walks or sights worth checking out in Kampong Thom?
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip?
I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
After a stay on Koh Phayam this coming November, I’d like to spend 2 or 3 days on Koh Phra Thong before heading further south.
Do you think it’s doable to leave Koh Phayam early enough to catch the 10 AM boat from Khura Buri to Koh Phra Thong? The next one isn’t until 4 PM, which would cost me a whole day.
I’m planning a trip to Indonesia, specifically Sulawesi and Java, in September for 10 days.
I don’t know this part of the world at all—any advice is welcome!
I’ll be traveling solo and would also love tips on meeting other travelers or locals.
Hello everyone,
Not long ago, I used to travel as a couple, but my husband has since passed away, and I’ve decided to set off again. The trip I took to Cambodia in January 2025 did me a world of good.
I’m now considering Thailand, a destination we never included in our plans because even 15 years ago, people said it was too touristy. Still, I’m thinking about the itinerary below, but I don’t feel up to arranging buses, trains, or guides on my own while I’m there. I’m looking for one or more drivers and have been in touch with an agency, but their offers are just copy-paste group tours that I don’t want.
So, if you have any contacts, experiences, or advice, I’d be so grateful if you’d share them with me. Here’s my rough plan:
Arrival in Bangkok
Ayutthaya (2 nights)
Kanchanaburi (2 or 3 nights)
Sangkhlaburi/Sai Yok (3 nights)
Sukhothai (2 nights)
Lampang (I’ve planned 3 nights, but that might be a bit much—it depends on what time I arrive in the city)
Chiang Mai
Chiang Dao
Pai
Chiang Rai
I was thinking about the Mae Hong Son loop—thoughts?
What do you think about staying overnight at the Golden Triangle?
When I look online, of course, I can find agencies that organize tours to national parks, etc.
I’m retired but in great physical shape. I’d rather go hiking than sit in hot springs with crowds of tourists who’ve all arranged meet-ups. I don’t want to spend a day at an elephant camp, and I don’t want to visit Karen villages.
I’d love to hear your advice.
Thank you all,
Hi everyone,
Could you share your thoughts on my 3-week itinerary?
We’re a small group (family + friends) of 12 people, planning to leave around January 21, 2027.
Here’s my itinerary:
3 nights in Bangkok
4 nights in Chiang Mai
3 nights on Koh Samui
3 nights on Koh Phangan
4 nights in Krabi
4 nights in Phuket
I’m also open to any great tips you might have...
Thanks, everyone! Alain.
Hi there,
We’re planning a 3-week family trip next summer with our three kids, who’ll be 8, 8, and 7 years old.
After some research, we’re leaning toward Malaysia to combine nature/forests and paradise beaches. The idea is to introduce our kids to the country’s culture, nature, and wildlife.
We want a great trip but without splurging on luxury options like high-end lodges and resorts. We’re looking for comfort with a touch of authenticity—basically, a good middle ground.
I’ve started putting together an itinerary and would love your expert advice and tips to help us build this amazing trip with our little ones.

- 3 nights on Gili Meno (Rest and beaches) from Padangbai
- 2 nights in Amed (1 day from Padangbai with the Abang rice terrace and Tirta Gangga baths, and the next day a boat tour in Amed)
- 4 nights in Pemuteran (1 day for transfer and rest, 1 day to visit Kawah Ijen, and 2 days of snorkeling at Menjangan Island)
- 2 nights in Munduk (1 day with the Dayang rice terrace and the 3-waterfall hike, 1 day at Pura Ulun Danu Bratan)
- 2 nights in Jatiluwih (1 day in the rice terraces, and on the last day, we’ll stop by Pura Taman Ayun in Mengwi and Pura Tanah Lot before catching our red-eye flight).
Accommodations in homestays or hotels.
Transportation to be arranged on-site with the lodgings (?)
Boat to Gili Meno to book in advance (?)
Kawah Ijen excursion to plan ahead (?)—check with the homestay (?)
Thanks for your thoughts/comments to help us explore this destination...
