It's our first time in Vietnam! After waiting for years to get here, we've finally made it. It's been at the top of our list for awhile and we're so excited to finally be exploring this beautiful country. As we visit, Vietnam just opened to tourism a few weeks ago.
This video is all about our first impressions of Vietnam as we start things off in Halong City (Halong Bay). We walk around the city and try our very first Banh Mi Sandwich in Vietnam. We also visit a local market in Halong.
We walk the streets and talk about how little traffic and people are around. We make some stops here and there, including at a beautiful mural.
We also stop and try our first Vietnamese coffee. We order an iced Vietnamese coffee with milk (condensed milk) and a coconut coffee.
Lastly we head back to our amazing resort (VinPearl Halong Bay) by boat. In the next video we'll give you a tour.

Vietnam had some of the most severe lockdowns in Asia. It is great to see it open again ... We visited Vietnam in 2018 and REALLY loved it. Check out our video on our channel. Support Vietnam.
We're really digging it so far as well. We'll have a lot of videos coming up on the country here 😀 - Trevor
Gotta admit, it's BECAUSE of the severe lockdowns that we survived with minimum casualties :)
@@TylerVu06 Great to hear. We visited Vietnam before the pandemic and LOVED Vietnam. The people of Vietnam were very kind. Check out our channel.
The past 2 years have been really difficult. I have to close the hotel in Ha Long. I just want to cry . And you guys so friendly. Welcome to my hometown.
Sorry you had to go through that. Hopefully things get better for you soon - Trevor
This is so fheartbreaking and rustrating to hear. Really hope it picks back up. And you are such a nice soul to take the time to comment and cheer up on others!! Best of lucK!
Things will get better. Hang in there.

I accidentally discovered your video. I subscribed immediately to follow your adventures in Vietnam 🇻🇳. I am Vietnamese who lives in Canada 🇨🇦. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video. Have fun and enjoy the new experiences.
Welcome to the channel Tom 🤗 - Anna
I can’t wait to see more from Vietnam, you guys are amazing and so natural and organic on how you present things around. Vietnam is one of my top list of countries to visit so I am looking forward for your videos and I can’t wait to see the resort inside since I was already sold in the outside.
Thank you... resort tour coming soon - Anna
As long as Vietnam is still ruled by the oppressive and exploitive Communist regime, her potential remains greatly diminished. For any 1% that wants to stay, 99% of the population wants to get out, and many have risked their lives doing just that (for example, 39 doomed lives found in UK container truck recently on the news, and that's only what's been reported), unfortunately. Yet another shocking and also recent example is that during the Covid pandemic when almost all countries assisted their citizens with financial aids in one form or another, the corrupt and murderous Vietnamese Commie regime saw it just as another opportunity not to help but to exploit its ruled citizens even more, essentially making money over the corpses of its citizens by presumably killing at least 30-50K of them, due to grossly misdiagnoses and being thrown into barbwired unhygenic living quarters for isolation, so that they had to sleep on concrete floor, even next to filled trashcans, with inadequate toilet, food, water, or medicine, like animals (searching hard enough, one is able to see shocking video clips on Facebook though the regime tried hard to crack down the leaks by Vietnamese citizen journalists), with the fake nostril Covid test kits, mislabeled as approved by World Health Organization (WHO) in Việt Á scandal, colluded by at least 4 different government agencies (Y Tế , Khoa Học, Công Nghệ, Quân y) and the top Politburo members, including Nguyễn Phú Trọng, Phạm Minh Chính, Nguyễn Xuân Phúc. Murderous Vietnamese Commie regime even had a thug murdered Christian pastor Giuse Trần Ngọc Thanh, like it has done with many other pastors across the nation. There is a reason why the current Commie Vietnam ranks at the bottom of the world in freedom of speech, (true) freedom of religion, and freedom of the press, barely above Commie China and Commie North Korea. There is no true freedom of religion in Commie Vietnam, as this corrupt Vietnamese Commie regime only authorized the fake organizations headed by Commie monks, many of whom were Commie Party officials, and those religious organizations not approved to be infiltrated by them or headed by their Commie agents are accused of malicious and nonexistent crimes and banned, with innocent religious leaders arrested and jailed, as in the recent case with Thiền Am Bên Bờ Vũ Trụ, a harmless Buddhist meditation monastery, for simply having many followers (hence, more influences that the regime fears it can't control) than the Commie Party's officially approved ones. Similarly, its passport ranks at the bottom, 89th out of 111 countries for a reason, barely above North Korea 104th rank. even below many African nations. For comparison, South Korea is at 2nd rank. That's what Republic of South Vietnam would have likely been ranked among at least the top 10 had it not been invaded and occupied by the North Vietnamese Commie terrorists, aided by Commie Soviet and Commie China. Search "cuop dat dan" (meaning "land-robbing of citizens") to see millions of footages across the country from North to South, spanning for decades, dated back to Ho Chi Minh's bloody land reform 1953-1956 that killed nearly 1 million North Vietnamese in only 4 years, or 250K people brutally slaughtered in torturous painful deaths (like being shot, stabbed, mutilated while being alive, or heads being plowed over by water buffaloes while bodies being buried underground) each year on average to rob their lands and homes. Even today, if the rightful owners refuse to have their homes or lands robbed, the ruthless Vietnamese Commie terrorist regime simply jail or massacre them, have tractors run over their bodies or openly assassinate them in their own homes. When it comes to robbing, these barbarian Vietnamese Commie bandits even prey on each other, just as the recent case with then 84-year-old Mr. Lê Đình Kình, a 55-year-Commie Party veteran from Dong Tam, near Hanoi, that got shot dead at 3am in his own home by the Vietnamese Commie terrorist regime. When his wife Mrs. Dư Thị Thành refused to lie about the incident as ordered, the Vietnamese Commie terrorist police brutally tortured her (see more details from "dandongtam" on Facebook). The corrupt Vietnamese Commie government officials routinely dine on lavish gold-plated Salt Bae steak $100K per meal with blood money not just from taxpayers but also from robbed-lands and robbed homes recently drew international condemnations, while many Vietnamese citizens, including elderlies in their 60's and 70's as well as kids as young as 6's to 16's selling lottery tickets on the streets to survive on $2-3 per day. Even Phạm Nhật Vượng the richest man in Vietnam (via his VinGroup) made the bulk of his wealth mainly by colluding with the barbarian Vietnamese Commie regime in selling their robbed-lands from Vietnamese citizens.
Travelers to Vietnam in her current form (not at all like this before the Communists took over) should keep this in mind. Behind the beauty of the land and smiling faces at popular tourist destinations, there are a lot of darkness and tears, bloods, sweats, sorrow, horror, and sufferings all over the country.
My dear guys, please DON'T FORGET to visit New Golden Bridge! You will be so happy! Love from Toronto!
Welcome to Vietnam, enjoy a great time from our country. Our country has 63 provinces and cities, let's explore all 63 provinces and cities. Very interesting! From Vietnam🇻🇳
Thanks you guys visiting our country! Have nice holiday!
Thanks for watching!
WAW, YOU GUYS HAVE A VERY ADVANTURIST LIFE. VN HAS CHEAP GOOD FOOD and PEOPLE ARE VERY FRIENDLY. THANKS YOU FOR SHARING.
Been to Vietnam twice and would love to go again.
It's amazing here - Anna
Great video. Thanks for sharing this👍🙏
Cheers.. lots more on the way - Trevor
Wellcome to VIETNAM. have fun 👌🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳
Thank you for having us! Stoked to explore 😀 - Trevor
People in Vietnam and Asia in general have been wearing masks out and a bout for way longer than COVID has been around. Some do it for dust purposes and some do it to protect their skin from the sun. So I wouldn't really use that as a barometer for whatever actual mandates they have. I'd just the US Embassy Health and Safety page to see what it is currently. I think at the moment it's just sort of use at your own caution and recommended when within 6 feet similar to a lot of the US.
Yes. I really want to go to Vietnam.
Chào mừng anh chị đã đến thăm Việt Nam, chúc anh chị có 1 chuyến du lịch vui vẻ, hạnh phúc
I love 💕 ur video I’m from the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 I’m in the south of the country take care see u soon 🔜 in the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴
🥰
Vietnam is certainly more beautiful than I would have pictured in my head and also…very quiet! I look forward to future videos and I hope you enjoy your stay there.
Thanks Colleen... lots more coming up on Vietnam! - Trevor
Don't let the quiet of Hai Phong make you think the rest of Vietnam is that way....HCMC and Hanoi will be way different as far as how busy and noisy they are. LOL! Go check out One Pack Wanderers video that was recently uploaded of them walking across the street in HCMC (Saigon). :)
It's COVID :))
When in Hanoi get a tradional pork banh mi from a street vendor they are the best . Eating on the street is a whole different experience trust me we have been going over to Vietnam a lot
I cannot wait to see the rest of this trip, I really would love to go visit VietNam 🇻🇳
All the best
Sabrina🇫🇷🇬🇧
I would dig this coconut café yum yum yum 😋
Oh the coconut coffee was the best! 🤗 - Anna
❤️🇻🇳
@@DelightfulTravellers you can try Egg Cafe
Wellcome to VN!
Welcome to Viet Nam, Ho Chi Minh City should be on top of your list to visit. 😁
I LOVE Vietnam. Btw in Asia, ppl wear masks in the street (way before Covid) because of traffic and pollution so not a surprise to see them take it off indoors lol. Ha Long is a special place, enjoy ❤
Why don’t you try to drink a cup of Vietnamese coffee while listening “Hello Vietnam” song. Welcome to VN!
I am here in VN now.
Basically no tourist are here now. But I love it like this 😁.
Enjoy it guys. I just had the best soup I ever had in my whole life.
I went on a walk - same place as in 2019. Most of the tourist shops - pizza- western beach wear- motorcycle rentals- they are all gone. So sad. That is here on the central coast.
You will get used to VN - it’s not like anyplace you have experienced before.
See you here on the coast.
The reason why the city is so empty is this: Halong is the most touristy city in Vietnam, especially for foreign travelers. So after 2 years of covid with few tourists, the city's economy is basically dead, like absolutely devastated. It will take some time to recover.
Good to know. Thanks Matt - Anna
Summer is packed of local tourist
Hi Anna and Trevor, so happy for you both. I’m sure you will have a great time and I’m looking forward to the Vietnam adventure videos 😃👏🏼🙏🏼🍀🌸
Appreciate that MM... lots more on the way 😀 - Trevor
What a great adventure, have fun! Thanks for taking us along!
Wishing all of you to have a good trip!
Thanks so much Thanh - Anna
Thank you both for visiting my country
That coocnut coffee looked amazing! Vietnamese food is one of our favourites and we loved how every different city and town seemed to have their own unique cuisine. We particularly liked the food in Hoi An. If you go there be sure to try the white rose. It's so good!
Hoi An is at the top of our list. Can't wait to edit the videos! - Anna
I cannot wait to see more of these Vietnam videos! So happy you guys are going on your place that was on your list two years ago.
It feels great to finally visit after 2 very long years! Thanks for watching Rachel 😀 - Trevor
Very glad that you guys made it.! As always good planning provides the best results.
beautiful video..So happy for you and to see what you guys have planned.
Be blessed always..
have a safe and great stay
Xin chào, welcome to Vietnam🇻🇳✌! Right, Bánh Mì!

Welcome to Vietnam. I hope you will happy in my country. And youre next time, welcome to Hochiminh City, Hoian city, Danang city and Phu Quoc island. 🌹
We'll be visiting some of those locations 👍 - Trevor
The man in this video speaks Vietnamese quite well, welcome you to Vietnam! We always welcome all visitors.
wow so beautiful... great video.. From Vietnam with love...❤️✌️
Cảm ơn du khách nước ngoài đã đến VN và giới thiệu về phong cảnh và văn hoá VN
We loved Vietnam when we were there eight years ago.
I’d like to know where the traffic is!
Vietnamese iced coffee and the coconut coffee were our favourites. I did have some problems with food allergies, both wheat and peanuts so that was sad but I always found something to eat.
Do take a scooter foodie tour when in HoChiMin City, so fun!
The city we're in here has very little traffic for some reason. That will all change once we get to Hanoi - Trevor
Can’t wait too see more scenic drone shots of the bay. Those rock formations and little islands look breathtaking!
I didn't end up flying the drone too much there because of those cliffs. But we'll have lots of footage don't worry - Trevor
I’m so excited for you both! The sandwich and the coconut coffee looked delicious!! Have fun!!
Food is on point so far Janice! 🤗 - Anna
So excited for this series! Love love the intro to the video! Can’t wait for more of the food tours as well! Great job guys! ~Cara 😊

Wow how exciting. Love it already. The food and markets. The scenenary is beautiful. Looking forward to more. Thanks and take care.

So jealous! I lived in Bangkok for two years during Covid, and I had plans to travel to Hanoi, Halong Bay, and Ninh Binh. However, my flight was canceled and my entire trip was canceled due to the Covid pandemic. Hopefully I can visit someday. Until then…I’ll live vicariously through your videos. (I’m on my way now! 🎶 🕺 👀 🎥)
We will definitely be visiting some of those places you guys 🤗 - Anna
Let's go to Vietnam. Now you can easily visit our country ^^

Thanks guys! So much Vietnam content on the way 👍 - Trevor
have fun with your trip 😍
🥰 you guys are 💯 delightful .
Nice vid !
Thank you ! My country is very great and wonderful ! I ' m Việtnamese here ! We will have Sea games 31 biggest Asian , welcome to Viet Nam !
What beautiful views, really looking forward to seeing more as you travel around and explore. Love seeing the market and all the quick food places. At least initially things seem to be inexpensive but I am sure you will show more and more full dining restaurants perhaps. The language would be more difficult especially when buying (do they barter?). Anyway this is a fabulous experience, so glad it worked out.
They do barter here yes haha... it's tricky that's for sure. The food is very inexpensive as well. We luv this place! 😀 - Trevor
@@DelightfulTravellers Just wanted to tell you both that people there wear masks outside because of the pollution and visitors will often suffer from sore throats. So just something to consider esp when you are in more busy and heavier traffic areas.
Really nice edit, smooth
Awesome video, very nice places
Looking forward to more videos!💝
We are looking forward to more Viet Nam videos. Also going to check out your Phillipines videos as my husband would love to go there some day. Great job on your intro Viet Nam video. Thanks Anna and Trevor. From fellow Canadians in Ontario.
Thanks Denise 😀 - Trevor
Can't wait to go back to Vietnam this year.
Việt Nam welcome everyone in the world who loves flowers, likes to have fun and shares joy to Vietnam . thank

We are going next year, and your videos have been exceptional. Just saw the Vinpearl Resort video and am booking a couple nights after we do the Halong Bay cruise. Thank you! ❤❤
Amazing... there's more (new) Vietnam videos coming this Sunday - Anna
Welcome to Vietnam ! I followed you for a long time to explore your clip about DR. Hope you have a great time in Vietnam. If you come to Ho Chi Minh City that I can catch you up to go somewhere. Nice day
