Hello from VIETNAM! If you missed our last video, we are spending 6 weeks in this beautiful country and are LOVING it so far! And for our first stop, we spent a few days in Ho Chi Minh City, also known as Saigon. We explored some of its top sights, visited tunnels from the Vietnam War, ate local foods, and more!

We help travelers spend less time (and stress!) planning their trip and more time enjoying it! Our detailed travel guides, YouTube videos, and travel resources share the must-visit local eats, popular and off the beaten path sights, and tons of tips to make planning your next adventure a whole lot easier.
