Yummyface Approved Recommendations
I have been lucky enough to visit every major tourist destination in Vietnam multiple times, as well as many other places that have yet to become travel hot-spots. Along the way I've managed to meet many other independent local businesses who provide truly unique travel experiences across Vietnam.
My goal for 2025 is to produce a lot more content that relates to unique and interesting 'Vietnam experiences'. And as you've come to expect, my mouth always comes first. So you can be sure that my recommendations for food, accommodations, and experiences meet my expectations and tastes, which are quite high, even for western standards.
I have personally experienced every single recommendation listed on our website. And each has earned the lofty status of YUMMYFACE APPROVED for quality, authenticity, kindness and presentation. I only support businesses who provide impressionable experiences that are worthy of your time and money as a traveler. That is my guarantee to you.
