As I write this, I’m sitting on my couch at home, fighting jet lag and thinking of the fantastic time I had in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. There was so much to do there, from a ho chi minh city tour to exploring the Cu Chi Tunnels! It was less than a week ago I returned from my five-night stay and still can’t believe I made the trip.

I’m working on a few blog posts about the experience but since I know some of you are anxiously awaiting SOMETHING from the trip, following are two videos and here is a link to images from the trip.

Note about services I used during this trip:

Accommodations, airport transfers and most activities were booked through AAA’s travel agency.

I stayed at the Empress Hotel in District 1.

Took three tours with Urban Adventures: Ho Chi Minh Discovery Tour, Cu Chi Tunnels Tour and Saigon Street Food at Night.

Took a street food tour with Saigon Street Eats. (On of the best tours I’ve ever taken!)

Took a trip to the Mekong Delta with Buffalo Tours.

Airfare was compliments of Turkish Airlines – I won a contest they had in October.
