Vietnam is an incredible backpacking destination. It's varied landscapes, friendly locals, delicious food scene, and affordability make it ideal for budget travellers.

Introduction:
Day 1-3: Ho Chi Minh City
Transportation
You'll likely arrive here by plane, landing at Tan Son Nhat International Airport. Pick up a SIM card here in the arrivals hall, or download an e-SIM ahead of time.
This airport gets quite chaotic, and you need to be aware of potential taxi scams. To avoid being overcharged I recommend downloading the Grab app. Grab works similarly to Uber. You can call a taxi using the app and the price is pre-determined so you'll know what you will pay up front- the best way to avoid scams.
