Ho Chi Minh City has many beautiful temples, and we suggest visiting the Cao Dai Temple, Jade Emperor Pagoda and Mariamman Hindu Temple. The War Remnants Museum details the 30 years-long war between Vietnam and the USA, while the Cu Chi tunnels allow tourists to experience how soldiers used the tubes to hide from their enemies. Ho Chi Minh City used to be a French colony in the past, and the Central Post Office, as well as, the Notre Dame Cathedral are remains of that era. In the Vietnam War, this city played a pivotal role, while today is a modern, vibrant city, buzzing with energy. Its former name, Saigon also recognise it. With all of that set up, you should be able to book and pay for a grab when you get your bags and exit customs without the need to overpay for a SIM card, get a crap exchange rate in the airport, get smashed with charges at the airport ATM.Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in Vietnam by population and the driving force of the country. Your other option is cash but that can get messy as most things you will do with grab will only be small amounts and you can have issues with drivers having the correct change. Link your AU debit/credit card to grab, I have a wise debit card but I have had AU banks linked to it previously without issues, do note that it is an international company so if your card issuer doesn’t refund international fees you will pay for it. You may need a confirmation code for certain things so download WhatsApp and set it up with your AU number also.Īgain this can be used even when you have a VN sim in your phone, when giving your WhatsApp number to people you will give them your AU number with area code. I have left mine linked to my AU number and have now had 3 different SEA SIM cards. Set up grab while you’re at home, link it to your AU phone number, it can stay as your AU number even when you get your VN sim.
