Nha Trang Travel Blogs

    I followed Highway 1 inland skirting the hills south of Nha Trang. Sidewalks, buildings, and storefronts  gradually gave way to thatch-roofed farm houses and small banana plantations. Dark green rice paddies were speckled by the yellow cone-shaped hats of squatting peasant…

  Two and a half months into my SE Asian holiday and I'm still packing a pair of tennis shoes and two pairs of socks - all unused since my arrival. I kept them primarily to trade their space in my daypack for keepsakes or souvenirs to haul home. The footgear would stay in storage in a yellow …

I got Kim on stage last night.  With our rendition of Drink the Wine we managed to inch ahead of the other worst singers.  This accomplishment earned us another bottle of pretty bad champaign.Today was a boat day.  I've been reading some CIA spy novels so a day of reading is perfect.…

As mentioned to my interests, I like enjoy my  time at coffe shop. Music, design, decoration and quality of service are things i look for there and " Nice cafe' "  impressed me at the first time i saw it when i was on the bus. After check - in hotel, i decided to find out its locatio…

I woke up at 11am feeling great. No, seriously, I did. No hangover whatsoever.. I must've barfed everything out last night, didn't I? hahaha. Well, we all got up, showered, and headed out to get some food. Ania had left Nha Trang at 7am that morning. Kshitij and Anshu had probably caught their 10am…

Was a real backpacker explored Nha Trang with my brother. It's a nice city with beautiful beach. I had much fun in 5 days there.

After breakfast I walked down along the beach. It was fairly empty and so much more pleasant. I sat down on the edge of a wall and was approached by a guy who tried to sell me a motorcycle trip up the coast. It looked interesting and he seemed nice so I looked at his information. He had a book with…

Dat is hier niets nieuws in Vietnam maar ben dus wel heel mijn tekst kwijt :( Ik begin opnieuw maar weet niet of ik tijd genoeg ga hebben om alles over te doen.Heerlijk geslapen deze nacht.…

It was early morning (around 7am) and I just finished my nine hours train ride from Saigon. Tired and feeling very uncomfortable as I was wearing the same thing I had since yesterday's adventure at Cu Chi Tunnel, I couldn't wait to get a room and have a nice hot shower. So there I was sitting at th…

So, I went on a small trip to Nha Trang with my close friend, Tram. It was supposed to be 3 people on this trip but my other friend, Mimi couldn't make it since her parents were pretty strict this time *sigh*We took an evening bus, departure time was 9pm and it took all night to get to Nha Trang. W…

Left India late night, the airport in chennai was chaotic, apparently it was wrong to visit the place just after the tsunami.  anyway, happy to be on the seat of the plane that takes me to Bangkok and fly to Saigon to head off to Nha Trang - my new temporary home (despite my friend protesting …

Brian and I have made some good friends on this ship and together we have all become celebrities! There are 8 of us, another couple from Washington DC and a couple from Scotland and couple from Australia (Coff's Harbor, no less). We are the party people on the boat and we have singlehandedly kept s…

i'm really obsessed with this train hehesitting in my 5star deluxe comfy chair with power socket next to me and wlanalmost no tourists on the train, mostly vietnamese people and about 80% filled here in the 5star class. no wonder as they seem to target primarily vietnamese people with their adverti…

People i met here, who contributed to and improved my trip: Juliana (Russia), Patrick (Canada), Debbie (England), Lucy (England) We spent our first day in Nha Trang strolling along the sea front and enjoying the baking sunshine. For the first time, it really felt like the weather matched that what…

This was my very first time going back to Vietnam since I was 3 years old.  The flight doesn't go straight to Nha Trang, but to a little airport in nearby Cam Ranh and you have to take a 25 minute taxi ride to the city.  The view on the way to the city was beautiful, you see clear blu…
