Suoi Tien Theme Park
Kitchy kitchy kitchy koo....loved this park, take it for what it is an enjoy yourself...easy to get local bus there and in less than an hour from Saigon CCAfter months of research for our second road trip through Vietnam we decided on the following circuit.
Saigon 3 nights : The Evergreen Hotel - great, clean, location location, helpful staff, upgrade and interesting for meandering. Park outside.
Dal Lat 3 nights : Dreams 1 - Domestic flight with VASCO one way - clean, brilliant breakfast, jacuzzi is a bonus, location ok, good for meandering 2 nights would be enough.
Picked up with Vietnam-easyriders.com for 4 day pillion back through the highlands down Cambodian border back to Saigon......Lee, Chau and Quang were brilliant with us old foggies. Use this company it is very good and Lee helped with the Dreams booking for me.
Saigon 2 nights : The Four Roses Hotel - love this place in district 3. French theme but old fashioned character very house proud, beauty parlour, garden, cool meandering location, very friendly, few tourists if any to be seen. Only $25 for 2 people but add on the breakfast which is lovely in the little garden.
Con Dao Island 4 nights : Hai An Hotel - cheap clean, comfy bed, balcony on request, I bought food and cooked in the hotel kitchen, no

Monk in Buddist theme park.... sand flies as off the beach, really chilled place to adventure. Hire a moped for the price of a sandwich and go for the beaches. You need to be prepared to embrace Island life this is not a tourist trap YET! We loved it x
Can Tho for jump to Nguyen Shak 2 nights: Use Phuong Trang Bus Service. The service is brilliant just get the address from your hotel wave it at the taxi driver and go. The shack is good value due to free snacks, water, tea/coffee and fruit. Amazing food cooked by the owner. The boat and bikes were fun but we were too hot at night ....Scottish! Quiet at night so take a good book.
Saigon 3 nights : The Evergreen to finish and a trip to the crazy theme park and to top it all....a private encounter with the Dolphins....amazing! went on quiet Monday morning, hotel staff showed us the bus number and one block up we caught the bus straight there for 30p, just waive the park name at the ticket boy.
We only used Vinasun taxis and one other Minhun or something, green they are. No rip offs, no robberies,
