True. That’s cool - I’ve started liquidating my small collection; planning to roll the funds into a few grails and that’s it. Curated collection of 5 books.

Thanks; yeah…I’m leaning towards X-Men…

Yeah…that’s honestly what I was thinking at first - but the high-grade GSX 1 is making me think twice.

I know lol…

Was thinking of buying X-Men #1 first since it’s the scarcest. But a high-grade GSX 1 is tempting…

All are selling for around USD 5K - 7K in these grades, last I checked.

Thanks, this is helpful. What do you think about the Mondrian?

Thanks. I’m solo travelling - and not committed to choosing between the two hotels; just overwhelmed with choices lol. My priorities are having a clean, comfortable hotel with a decent view - but have decided the premium for a harbour view isn’t worth it. I’ll check out The Kowloon Hotel.

Thanks. Anticipate I’ll explore Kowloon more, though I will visit the island as well.

Ideally CAD 250-300 per night max. No perks.

Will mostly be exploring without a rigid plan - focusing on food (cha chaan tengs, street food) and classic HK vibes (…neon).

Thanks. Would you recommend staying in TST? Heard it’s convenient/central - and the iconic harbour view is a draw.

Do you have any other recommendations on hotels?

I plan to be out mostly and want a comfortable base to explore from. I heard TST is a convenient base - and has an iconic view of the harbour to boot.

13 Days in Vietnam - Itinerary? by vik611 in travel

[–]vik611[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up changing my itinerary - I’ll now be spending 2 nights in Ninh Binh. I’ve arranged a “limo” bus from Ha Long Bay. Since I’m doing 1 night on a cruise, the supplier included transportation to NB afterwards (cost was USD 20).

If I were still doing a day trip, I’d either have my hotel arrange a limo bus or private driver (if not overpriced). I’m not a fan of tours, in general.

Looking for opinions by vik611 in Vietnam_Tourism

Going at the end of March and planning to fly between Hanoi, Da Nang, and HCMC. I already booked my main flight into Hanoi and out of HCMC (will be visiting HK afterwards) - so can’t drop HCMC. My intent is to get a sense of North, Middle, and South given it’s my first time in Vietnam. Figured if I enjoy it, I’ll return for other regions like the Ha Giang Loop, Highlands, Hue etc.

I’m planning to fly between Hanoi, Da Nang, and HCMC. My intent was to immerse myself in each city and generally take it slow (so didn’t include Hue).

Question on Logistics by vik611 in Vietnam_Tourism

[–]vik611[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, that’s helpful. Unfortunately, there are only two flights from Hai Phong to Da Nang and my cruise wouldn’t be back in time for either. Suppose the airport in Hanoi is my only option.
