In the last few years Vietnam has been rising up as new destination that offer wonderful beach like Mui Ne, Hoi An, China Beach, Phu Quoc Island, Nha Trang yet there are still more on the list. however at the same time Travel expensive also keep going up straight.

In 2005 A 3 star hotel room cost around 30usd to 40/room/night but in 2008 the same Hotel rate went up to 70 usd room/night which bring a reall pressure to Local tour Operator for looking accomodation on their clients request, and at the same time It bring an bad image to Travelers that Vietnam became an Expensive destination so their choice would be other country like Thai Land or near by destinations.

yet the financial crisis now really hit Vietnam tourism that Hotels which id 4 to 5 star have to suffer strongly to their price pursuit. and what they have to do now is trying to lower price to allure customers.

If you you have been thinking that Vietnam is an expensive travel place then now It is the best chance to travel here as price being down up to 20 or 30% on hotels that Opeator can reduce your trip total around 15%.

for example: normal price for Rex Hotel a historic 4 star hotel now you can pay as high as 130usd/deluxe room/night inclusive Breakfast, Tax and service charge.

besides, you can contact Vietnam local tour Operator for the best tour package or any travel service in advance.

despite of Financial crisis, Vietnam surely and best and cheap destination now in your travel destination list. Come to Vietnam now before to late!

have a nice day,
