5 Annoyances Or Scams You Can Avoid In Vietnam Far East Travels Podcast

    • Places & Travel

In this episode I run down 5 common mistakes or uncomfortable situations you can avoid on your first trip to Vietnam. Some could be considered scams or overcharging, in other cases just minor uncomfortable situtations that can be easily avoided. We've all been scammed or overcharged at least once on our travels. I remember I was overcharged for a speedboat ride to the Gili Islands by what I thought were friendly staff in the hotel I was staying at in Bali many years ago. They are situations that can easily put a damper on, or in extreme cases ruin a trip. In Vietnam, there are several examples of overcharging, or misunderstandings, that typically take place around tourist attractions or areas where visitors tend to spend alot of time in. Knowing what to expect can help you avoid these uncomfortable scenarios.
