Another excellent travel video, Samy! I am traveling to Da Nang in December and I was taking notes from your video on where get the best currency exchange rates, where to get a new pair of glasses and recommended restaurants to try in the area you walked. Thank you for the helpful information. Keep up your great work. Safe travels.

Cool video Samy! Doesn't look like much shade on that street at that time of day. Thanks for sharing, good info!

[@socialsamy]

Thank you David yes that’s not the smartest move I try to film more in the morning or sunset to get shade and better light :)

Another great and informative video. Thanks for sharing, and yes, pls do a video about Viettel SIM cards!

[@socialsamy]

Will do 🙏

[@marekjurdak1308]

great video again 👌 and yes, please also explore the back hotels 😊

[@socialsamy]

Will do !!!

[@GipsyDean]

I stayed near that street on both my visits to Da Nang this is the first time I have seen it during the day! The seafood place on the end is the largest in Vietnam. I can't believe you are walking around without a hat in this heat....

[@socialsamy]

I told myself to wear a hat next time but it was very spontaneous 😃 it’s massiv but I didn’t know that! Do you know if it’s also good?(the seafood place)

[@GipsyDean]

@@socialsamy I had a nice shrimp dinner there. They have 15-20 chefs working at the same time, I counted 20 woks in the open kitchen and they claim that the place can seat 400 people! I made a video of it. It would be interesting to see this place on a busy night, a lot of 'wok and roll' lol 🤣🤣😂😂 Reply

[@socialsamy]

@@GipsyDean I could imagine they have bus groups either that much space :)

"I struggled with the heat" Fellow Danang-dweller here - Yeah it has been absolutely brutal these past weeks. 10am to 4pm is hellish.

[@socialsamy]

I just made a video about the mornings here. and I definitely have to change my schedule to wake up early to get some nice quality time outside its really nice between 6-10right?

[@cookietulis6252]

@@socialsamy Yeah. It is definitely the nicest time to be outside - just before and just after sunrise. Still only around 25 degrees. All the times I am up at 5am or so and head out for a walk, I always promise myself I will start doing this every day....but....laziness haha. So busy outside at that time though - all the sellers - heaps of restaurants already open etc.

[@socialsamy]

@@cookietulis6252 yeah I made it once to the 5 am sunrise 😂 but 7 am should be manageable

[@laussrensen4541]

Hello and thank you for your videos. I noticed that in this video you walked past the SOCO hotel where I stayed in July this year. I had a ‘Suite with King Size Bed and Terrace’ of 60 m², for which I paid $20 per day. Although the hotel is not new and may look a little worn, I thought it was fantastic value for money. Everything worked as it should, the bed was big and comfortable, the view (partial sea view) was good, and I loved having the space. The staff were friendly, especially the young man who calls himself Jeny at reception. Maybe you have time to take a look at it sometime. Sincerely yours Laus

[@socialsamy]

Oh thank you so much Laus for the recommendation! I will definitely put it on the list to review 🙏

[@laussrensen4541]

@@socialsamy Thanks, looking forward to that. They don't have a pool but quite a nice roogtop terrace

[@ellawong7489]

Thanks for the excellent videos. Would you be able to show some accommodation near the rivers and the local areas. We are planning to come in Feb 2025 for 2 to 3 weeks to relax and eat. We are not big fans of beaches. Thanks very much!

[@socialsamy]

Thank you! Yes I will definitely do more on the river as well as the city center. I did one hotel by the river here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYCVhmporaysfNUsi=dHGu93gdWSdGCu_3

Does the gold shop you mentioned at 5:46 do better than the banks tp and vp?

@@Udjeox in terms of exchange yes. Also that’s just an Example I believe all those gold shop change money I will film it soon weirdly enough I know usd and euro they do a better exchange but I’m not sure about any other currencies.

[@socialsamy]

I used them all at some point at the beginning but they always charge just TP Bank and VP Bank do not charge atm fees

Thanks for the video. We're going to Da Nang in October (and other SE Asian countries). Debating the Airolo eSim vs portable WIFI hotspot. Airolo eSIMs I understand. But the WIFI option would be so much better as far as connection. Have you had any experiences with the WIFI hotspot.. any suggestions?

[@socialsamy]

I never used a portable WiFi hotspot, but might be very good for 2 people traveling combined with having WiFi in every establishment in Da Nang. And I had quite some Issues with eSIM the one time I tried it in Brazil 😭 I still hang onto my iPhone 13 with a SIM card slot 😍 I do believe the major telecommunication company has also ESims I think I’ll go There soon and make a video about it

[@Unplugged704]

@@socialsamy Following up. Did you do video on eSims? Also the gold shop exchange rates are better than exchange rate booths at airport?

The apartment lease is no problem even with 3 month visas just make sure you pay before you do the visa run :)) every 3 month a nice trip to Thailand and you’re good 🙏
