Spa Treatments

Love indulging in relaxing spa treatments? My friend, you have come to the perfect place.

Ho Chi Minh City has an abundance of spa hotels and the prices of treatments are dirt cheap. So cheap, you can have a spa treatment every day.

Harmony Saigon Hotel & Spa is my favourite go-to destination. You’re greeted by a refreshing freshly squeezed juice after your treatment. Bliss!

Go shopping

Vietnam is one of the budget shopping capitals of the world. Quality of goods is better here than in other Asian countries. Just keep an eye out for fake items.

Relaxing shopping trip to a mall? Go to one of the local shopping places such as Saigon Centre.

Into market shopping? Visit Saigon Square or the Ben Thanh Market. Abundance of items on offer, make sure you bargain for the best price.
