Copy of "Amazingly cheap travel! A 3-day trip to extremely poor Vietnam"

Epilogue

Now, what I would like to introduce to you is a thorough discussion of one of the most important factors when traveling to Vietnam: budget.

Before anyone misunderstands, I should clarify that the term "extremely poor travel" refers to a budget, but it does not necessarily mean that those who pursue it are extremely poor.

If you look at it from the perspective of how to make a trip as cheap and enjoyable as possible, I think that rather than being penniless, one should be full of a spirit of adventure.

Another appealing aspect of traveling in extreme poverty is that sometimes status and honor don't matter and you become nobody, allowing you to enjoy the trip as if everything had been reset for you.

This time, in order to focus on the keyword "extreme poverty," this is a different topic from satisfaction, and since there is no definition of the various parameters that make up extreme poverty or any meta-comparison elements, the author will arbitrarily refrain from making any definitive statements as to whether or not this trip would be enjoyable and satisfying for many people, and will instead delve deeper.

■ Setting a destination

When traveling on a budget, a key factor is how to cut down on travel expenses.

As you can see, in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, it takes about 30 minutes by car from the airport to the city center, the tourist attractions are far apart, and the city is not large enough to walk around on foot.

There's no telling where you might be, what kind of trouble you might get into, or what unexpected expenses you might incur, so try to set your destination with a completely defensive mindset, rather than an aggressive one.

If you're looking for a city that's as compact as possible, with an airport close to the city center, and where there are direct flights...

I'm sure Da Nang will be displayed. And it seems like the area has a very good public safety rating, so I've decided on my destination!

■ Target minimum budget

To get straight to the conclusion, the all-inclusive total trip cost is 53,900 yen for three nights.

(Round-trip airfare, 3 nights' hotel accommodation, meals, water, round-trip airport transfers included)

I will explain the details.

1. Round-trip flight: 40,000 yen

Prices for each flight will vary depending on the season and promotions, so we will track them starting six months in advance.

Flight prices make up the largest portion of a budget for a really low-budget travel, so if you can just secure a ticket you're pretty much guaranteed to win.

Also, even though the tickets are cheaper, there is almost no difference in equipment or service.

However, please be aware that in most cases it is not possible to change flight schedules and the fee for checked baggage may not be included in the price .

2. Hotel 1 night 500,000vndx3days Booked through Airb&b

Subtotal 1500,000vnd (8,800yen/3nights)

If possible, book your hotel room immediately after purchasing your flight tickets.

Honestly, booking a hotel isn't something to worry about, but even at similar prices there can be huge differences, so analyze the reviews for yourself.

Rather than looking for as many reviews as possible and high ratings, the concept is about traveling on extreme poverty, so remember that the location is nearly equivalent to a lifeline.

Recommended locations are Tran Phu Road and Bach Dang Road, although they are a little far from the beach.

I'm sure you won't have any trouble finding food whether it's early in the morning or late at night.

3. Meals x 3 meals x 3 days x 50,000vnd

Subtotal 450,000vnd (2,600 yen)

In the locations mentioned above, you will be able to enjoy Vietnamese cuisine such as pho, banh can, bun cha, and com ga to the fullest.

However, since all price ranges are local, hygiene and quality vary.

Try to choose a restaurant with as high a customer turnover as possible and somehow get by.

After the meal, we recommend a Vietnamese coffee, but this is not included in the travel budget so please check your own budget.

4. 2 bottles of water per day x 5,000vnd x 3days

Subtotal: 30,000vnd (174 yen)

Southeast Asia is known for its tropical climate. And when you think of the tropical climate, you think of heat stroke. This is no joke, so make sure you always carry water with you.

5. Airport-Hotel round trip

200,000vndx2time 2330yen

Be sure to install the GRAB app in advance!

However, since the GRAB service is not specialized for tourism, please be aware that requests such as "please wait a moment" may incur additional charges.

There's no problem if you just use it for simple transportation from one place to another, so you need to plan how you'll use it in advance.

Disadvantages

The food was poor, even for Vietnamese people, and there was no guide, so it was a long walk for three days. Also, even if you wanted to take a break because it was hot, the cost of the ticket at the tourist spots would be surprisingly high, even if you just had a coffee or a snack in a cool place.

However, there is a fatal disadvantage to this, in that if you are not used to backpacking around town, it may not be much fun for some people.

If you want to eat a normal meal in Vietnam, you should expect the price to be higher than in Japan, so it's not suitable for people who eat a lot of rice.

However, if you are someone who can tolerate something cheap, high in protein, but also weird, like Hobbylon, then it's no problem.

Since the hotel is cheap, you should be wary of the safety deposit boxes .

■ Advantages

In short, it's cheap.

On the other hand, if you don't plan your route for exploring the city, it could end up being disastrous, but on the other hand, if you have some purpose in mind for exploring, it could be a great trip.

This is recommended for people who enjoy walking under the hot sun, but no matter how healthy you are, tourists suffer from heatstroke every year, so financial stability is a must.

Also , insurance can only cost a few hundred yen, so be sure to get it .

The food is local and delicious, but there's a good chance you'll get an upset stomach.

If you are a tough guy who won't give up even if you go to India, there's no need to worry.
