Our VIETNAM Experience: Coffee, Street Food and Meeting Locals
Our Vietnam experience starts here - and Ho Chi Minh City welcomed us with pure mayhem, energy, and unforgettable moments. We landed straight into a massive street celebration, grabbed our first Vietnamese coffee, explored District 1, met some of the kindest locals who invited us to eat and drink with them, and ended the night with a walking street food tour that blew us away. In this Vietnam travel vlog, we take you through our real first impressions of Saigon: the nonstop mopeds, the heat, the culture, Banh Mis, Pho, coconut coffee, and some of the most memorable interactions we’ve ever had while traveling. From flying in from Tokyo to discovering local street food in District 3 and District 10, this video captures everything we loved about our first day in Vietnam. If you’re planning a Vietnam trip, searching for Ho Chi Minh City food, or just love travel and culture, this vlog shows exactly why Saigon instantly became one of our favorite cities. || CHAPTERS || 00:00 Intro 00:30 Tokyo Haneda Lounge to Ho Chi Minh City 05:05 Vietnamese Coffee 05:50 Breakfast - Banh Mi and Pho 08:43 Hair Makeover and Hanging With Locals 11:55 Walking Food Tour - District 3 13:53 Walking Food Tour - District 10 25:27 Reflecting on the Walking Food Tour 26:21 Outro WATCH NEXT 🇻🇳 Vietnam Series: • Ho Chi Minh District 1: Coffee, Local Food... 🇯🇵 Japan series (Tokyo, Kyoto & Osaka) : • Japan 🇯🇵 | Tokyo, Osaka & Kyoto SUPPORT THE CHANNEL If you enjoyed this video, please like, comment, and subscribe — it truly helps us grow 👉🏻 / @neek_and_kiel || PLACES FEATURED || 📍Egg Coffee - Q Coffee &Juice 28 Lê Anh Xuân, Phường Bến Thành, Quận 1, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam 10.772123896280084, 106.69526919138073 📍Bánh mì chảo Dì Nữ 2 Đặng Trần Côn, Phường Bến Thành, Quận 1, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh 700000, Vietnam 10.772341645994992, 106.69434782209022 📍Quán cơm Đồng Nhân 42 Trương Định, Phường Bến Thành, Quận 1, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam 10.77244292433778, 106.69603209510673 📍Nam Hoang Ben Hair Salon 150/2 Nguyễn Trãi, Phường Phạm Ngũ Lão, Quận 1, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam 10.770255972772581, 106.69032618651998 📍Get Your Guide Walking Food Tour https://www.getyourguide.com/ho-chi-m... 📍Bún Bò Huế Cô Ân 331/10 Đ.
