Ho Chi Minh but in district 1, i understand from pervious post that distict 10 is where i should be heading to.

thanks for the input, two visits for me seems right, after taking in everything, waiting until November will be a pain, but atleast i have three weeks in Vietnam in August, work visit, but it will give me a boost until then.

As it was my first visit there was a lot of sightseeing and exploring, enjoying the sights and weather. I used a guide for a couple of days to help with that. My time was all in Bangkok and my next visit will be all Bangkok as well as i think I just scratched the surface. I finally got to the bars Moonlight, Jupiter2018 towards the end of my trip and had fun offing on about 4 nights mainly from Moonlight. I think on my next trip I want to visit as many as i can. I did not do saunas or massage so there is that to add to the list. the more i list the longer i think i will need to cover it all. This was my first trip at 54 so not a young traveller.

Hi all, I made my first visit to Bangkok in February for 10 nights and it was fantastic, I am heading back in November for 15 nights. I am now looking for 2025 and as I still work in the UK only have 3 1/2 weeks holiday to take, I prefer November to February so the bank holidays dont help. My question is it better to do two maybe three shorter trips of say seven nights, taking into account the extra air fair, of to go the whole and stay for the 3 1/2 weeks in on go, probably February knowing it will be another 12 months before I can visit again. thoughts and comments appreciated. Hope this is a sensible topic for the forumn.

As someone new to Thailand having had my first visit in February, with my second comming in November and then February again I dont have the history that most on this forumn have. I can only say that I found the prices to be excelent for me, compared to the UK, and it was not just the bars and boys but just the general feeling of being so relaxed and having a holiday. I suppose its what your used to paying and for newcomers like me i still see it as bargin prices. i am in Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh, for the first time for 16 nights later this year and it will be interesting to see what is the same and different from the knowledge I have after 1 visit to Bangkok. Just to say reading these forumns before my first trip made it so much more enjoyable.

Hilton Millenium no problems at all. Have to meet in lobby because of lift key card but nothing said.
