Vietnam, anyone have any hidden gemstones to share?

If you go to the Mekong Delta I highly recommend Green Village Homestay in Can Tho. They are located out of town but there's enough to do for a few days (we rode their bicycles through the small villages to the sounds of children shouting hello! and took a tour to the floating market with Phoenix). It is a very unspoiled place.

Try and spend at least 2-3 days in the Mekong Delta.

It's a place that is still fairly untouristy as it's big so it's easy to escape the crowds.

If you want a small beach with few tourists and some local life then Qui Nhon is a nice alternative to the more popular beaches.

Hi Rella! I wrote multiple detailed posts about our two weeks trip to Vietnam, feel free to browse and decide for yourself where you'd like to go.
