We arrive at 7am and leave the next day. I've looked at the trip to the point and I don't fancy it much. I like the look of U Minh forest but don't know how best to get there.
Are there tours and how much should it cost? Can we hire mopeds? We are booked in the Best CM Hotel but now I've read it is too far out of town - anyone stayed there?
Is the pool nice? I then wanted to take a ferry to Can Tho but the only place I've found it mentioned is in Lonely Planet so now I'm panicking that it doesn't run any more. Please, any advice is welcome - the rest of our 3. The hotel is not a bad hotel, just the best of the hotels available. Its run by Viets that have lived in Boston USA so the standards will be higher than most hotels that are locally run, not that they would be bad either.
The pool was under repair last year so it should be finished by now. About hiring scooters. You maybe able to but you wont be legal and if you come off and are injured you wont be covered by your travel insurance which would not be a great way to start your holiday.
If its the first day of your holiday in Vietnam I would spend it relaxing by the pool after your mammoth international flight from the UK. Ask the hotel if they know of a quality massage service and make the most of your relax time. Right, we're back and given the scarcity of any info on Ca Mau I thought I'd share our experiences. Hotel is big, with quite garish decoration but our family room was fine and they gave us free breakfast when we arrived.
