Ho Chi Minh City - General Info

[MikeInBrazil]

My Da nang portion of the trip is over, now I’m in HCMC. My 1st day in Saigon was spent checking out many of the bars around HBT area. I first started at Apopcolpse Now, but since it was early it was dead as hell. Next I decided to try out the numbered bars, started at 51 which turned out to have a nice selection of girls but they would not budge on the 1mil price. I remember reading on here it should be 400,000 for ST and 700,000 for LT so I decided to pass on that idea. Next up was 49, which was similar to 51. I decided not to partake in any of the girls since I couldn’t get the price I wanted they all wanted 1 mil here too. Last stop of the night was NY SAI GON which is on 44 Dong Du, right next to the number bars. I found this place to be more relaxing as the girls were not aggressive. I found a really short cutie and we seemed to click, bar fine was 400,000 but by the time I got to this place it was kind of late. I decided to just get her number and hang out with her another time.

I've been reading the forum, trying to plan a short trip to VT, and some of the post are a bit old. I've been there before, but never mongering. What are the bar or other venues to hit these days, and are the GF hotels, etc. What's the drill? Some old posts mentioned hotels with massage girls that come to the room, or offer FS. Any advice is welcome.

Got to the 'other places' thread and run a search for Vung Tau. Lots of info there.

Thanks JD. One last question and probably a dumb one: Can I access this site from VN or does gov regulate internet?

Not a dumb question but it certainly has a slightly dumb answer: Yes you can and Yes it does.

I search the forum and found a few post from a couple of years ago on smoking weed, just wondering what the current situation is? Where are the areas to easily buy weed and can you smoke it in public?

Visit the backpackers area in D1, Bui Vien, De Tham, PNL. People will offer it to you on the streets. I've been to Lily bar on Bui Vien (I think) and someone there seems to be always smoking. One night there was a group of 3-4 guys sitting outside rolling them up and smoking at their table. I can't speak about the quality, haven't smoked in almost 2 years.

Right, Tour69.net is NOT legit, do not contact him.

About the Le Duyen haircut place on the youtube video, yes, this is legit and these places are plentiful. Le Duyen itself has at least 4 or 5 shops around the center of town. But there are no sexual services at these places. Just pretty girls to wash your hair and face and give you a massage with your (and her) clothes on in a non-private room. All are welcome regardless of race or color and it is not very expensive.

Could this actually be legit www.Tour69.net seems a bit too good to be true, and, given prostitution is illegal in Vietnam, I can't imagine how this site owner could get away with this. Also, I saw this on YouTube. Are these places plentiful, and do they cater to white tourists? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GepdF...eature=related

Again, I'm skeptical.

Hey Mutant (or other fellow mongerers), got a situation for ya.

I'm VK, and I'm going to be in country for the first time (ever) in mid October. (Whoo hoo!) I got a working girl/mistress type situation (who I met abroad but lives in Nha Trang) that I have a great relationship with. She wants me to support her but I don't see her enough to be that guy so we mutually stopped talking to each other a few months back (per your conscience comment).

Part of me wants to call her up, and have her visit while I'm there. Great sex, have a girlfriend while I'm there, show me around, all that shit. Other part of me doesn't want to open up that door and go hunting for another no strings attached, hot ass girlfriend to show me around for while I'm there. I'm fairly generous and so some form of gifting is assumed. Part of me worries that it will take 2-3 days to find somebody fun to hang out with. Since I'm only there for 5 days, I worried about that taking too long.

What do you guys think I should do?

Any tips on GF and NICE hotels greatly appreciated. I'm still digging through the clubs and hotels threads so bear with me while I catch up.

My suggestion is that you take the ferry to Vung Tau and fish in the bars mid-week when there are no crowds. Quite sure you can find a nice natural gal who will be happy to come back to Saigon with you if you wish. You may have to pay the first night and be something of a sugardaddy after that.

In summary, you can only find out all this when you meet her in person, but I would say to stick with working girls if you only want sex as if you have a conscience and to be honest sex won't be that good and it won't be hassle free

Fellow mongerers. I'm going to Vietnam for the first time next month and will be staying for 5 days. I speak, but don't have any other experience that will help me navigate the landscape.

I have a WG who I met a while back, who lives in Nha Trang, and who I have always had a great time with (we'll spend a week together here or there). We have mind blowing sex in the morning, we have a great time together during the day (with whatever we're doing), and then mind blowing sex again at night.

Anyways, I stopped talking to her a few months back as I she was getting a little too emotionally attached and I didn't want to setup a mistress situation as I wasn't going to have the opportunity to see her enough.

Of course now I find I'm headed to VN, and am hoping to find a hot girlfriend situation for the week. Not really much into finding a bunch of short timers, definitely prefer the extended GFE. Based on MutantChicken's post (which I'm apt to believe), everybody I'm going to meet is going to be a WG anyways.

SO. Is it better to fly in the tried and true gal pal, or is it easier to find somebody hot and who will play the GF role for the week?

Your right, short time hotel is around 50k, never seen one advertised more than 80k.

I can see you have a good head on your shoulders, you'll be fine here as it is some getting used to. Have you been here before?
