How to travel with a (small) child in Vietnam?

9/29/2011 11:08:56 AM

I did feel that major cities in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh, Ha Noi) felt touristy, but considerably less compared to Thailand. Bag-snatching is somewhat common in the nightlife areas in Ho Chi Minh City but otherwise I didn’t feel unsafe in any cities I visited.

While I haven’t been there, Ha Long Bay is particularly well-known for its beauty and there are enough islands to keep away from the tourists who come there. It’s also within 2 / 4 hours drive of Hai Phong / Ha Noi (respectively), which may be an issue if you need medical facilities as in your case you mentioned you’re expecting a baby.

You could also consider Cambodia and Laos. They share a very similar culture to Vietnam, and even major cities (Phnom Penh, Siem Reap…) are much less touristy than most places in Thailand and Vietnam.
