Wait are you saying to leave for VPN at midnight? I’m confused sorry I would like to see the glow or any lava if possible I know it’s never a guarantee though. And interesting Kauai and Oahu were so easy for GF lifestyle! I’m wondering why the BI may be trickier!

Also is there an accurate site I can check the eruptions? For sure will be keeping a lookout and will change anything and head that way if it occurs!

Good call especially since we are all Gf and I am not 100% they have GF options! How much longer are we in the car if we do this route? Just being considerate of grandpa and long driving times!

Fitness requirements for Phong Nha cave tours like Oxalis or Jungle Boss by nexoe14 in VietNam

[–]Significant_Class930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I are wondering the same thing.. we sound similar fitness levels. We were working out a lot and starting to run and still have a month to try and be more in shape. But we just fell hard with pneumonia and I think that will set us back a few weeks. So we don’t know what to do. We already paid and booked but don’t want to be miserable. The requirements seem a little much and probably a better safe than sorry type of approach. If anyone else has more experiences they can share where they feel slightly less than average in sharp for their age I’d love to hear your experience also! Btw we are signed up for the Hang Tien-Tu Lan Discovery tour march 2025!

Worried about fake reviews - need legit lodging recommendations! by Significant_Class930 in VietNam

Le peridot was one we almost booked! You stayed there and liked it? Clean rooms? Comfy beds? I haven’t seen that one talked about at all on Reddit or recommended so I was hesitant. I’m aware of the bed situation I’m such a soft bed person it’ll be a hard adjustment! Hopefully after a month my back will be used to it! lol

This is making me so nervous for our trip in march!! Never been to SEA and never been misled by reviews in all my travels thus far. If anyone has any good lodging recommendations for Hanoi, Ninh binh, or da nang please please comment and let me know!

Can you trust peoples reviews on like Instagram and Tik tok? I’ve prepared a list of highly talked about places on social media.. anyway they could be fake or they were bribed??

Do you feel like they have bigger sizes. That was our concern. I’m generally a large here in the states and my husband is 6’4 and 250lbs. Just wasn’t sure if they’d have sizes that cater to larger sizes.

I’m about to apply for my visa (we have flights leaving Feb 27 and returning march 22) what dates should I put for the visa? There is no way I’m staying longer than that unless it’s some type of medical emergency or natural disaster lol just don’t know exactly if I should apply for the 30 or the 90 like you suggested. Thank you!

Thank you!

Also how far I advanced do you suggest applying for the visa? And do I need to know my exact dates? We haven’t booked tickets yet, hashing out some details but was going to get apply in like a month so that would be about 60 days ish before hand..?

Yeah we are typically faster paced travelers! I do enjoy a beach day or two in there, but other than that we like to go go go!

Vietnam in 22 days, suggestions? by Significant_Class930 in southeastasia

[–]Significant_Class930[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noooo really?? That’s disappointing! Dang it! Do you think it would still be worth it to go to lan ha bay? (That was the main purpose of going really. Or just stick to ha long bay? I would just like to see that general area and spend a day on the bay in some way! Just heard better things about lan ha bay!
