cornishcarlos Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Hi folks, Have to join a boat in Nha Trang next month. Was considering flying in a few days early to have a look around, as I have never been to Vietnam Anyone familiar with the area? Any info on hotels, places to see, nightlife, food worth trying etc..!! Looking at 3 nights before starting work, so have a little time and would also like to hire a bike and get out into the countryside too. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canman Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Was there many years ago and it was a nice laid back town with a great beach. I am told that it has been built up since then with a few international quality resorts. If i were you I would go early and have a look around.

Inevitable really, anywhere with a nice beach is gonna get hammered Not really a city person, so more interested in getting a bike a touring the local area. Obviously I would still like to have a nose around the big city lights, so anyone with city info please respond. Thanks for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniel Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I was in Nha Trang in March for a few days. It is overrun with Russian tourists but that aside it's a great place to visit. Many hotel choices. Google hotels in Nha Trang. and if money is no concern then book one of the 5 star places on the beach but their are many cheaper options too. Easy to rent a motorbike for the day, lots of restaurants etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) From those photos, Nha Trang has really changed since I used to hang out there in the1990s and not for the better. There were NO high rises, at all, the first time that I visited. Edited August 15, 2014 by Ulysses G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pomchop Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I spent a week there last march...enjoyed it very much...nice beach, great hotel deals, dirt cheap beer, good walking areas near the beach, perfect weather. Yes lot of Russians but seemed a cut above the pattaya Russians....all in all nha trang is still a great spot to visit. lot of info here: http://www.travelfish.org/location/vietnam/south_central_vietnam/khanh_hoa/nha_trang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
