Hi
My wife and I spent 6 days in Ho Chi Minh City in April this year and it was fun visiting a new country
I have made this trip report that contains photos, videos, maps etc that you can view on http://gardkarlsen.com/Ho_Chi_Minh_City_Vietnam_trip_report.htm . We only got to see Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam by the way and I hope to go back to the country one day as there are lots more to explore. But as usual we were pressed for time and we had to move on to Cambodia.
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or comments. I hope that it can be of some help to others that are planning to visit the city ![]()
Regards
Gard

Another nice addition to your web site. Thanks for posting.
Hi Gard-
Thanks for sharing your report. It was interesting because we'll be there in just a couple of weeks. We're staying at the Sheraton and I was happy to read about the Juice place for breakfast and wifi. Someone else recommended it to me as well.
Nice report Gard. I like the video too!
Fantastic report Gard. I am off to HCMC too in November so always interesting to read someone else's first time experience.
I notice form the picture you flew Vietnam Airlines how were they (i have a couple of flights booked with them)
Thanks for the feedback
Yes, we used Vietnam Airlines when flying from HCMC to Siem Reap. It was just one hour flight so it doesn't really matter what airline you use on such short flight. The plane seemed to be well maintained as fas as I could tell 
Regards
Gard
