We avoided this for years… now we’ve been 3 times
Frequent Traveller News We’re currently travelling through Vietnam and again just visited a place we once avoided for years. Ba Na Hills. It actually took us multiple trips to the region before we finally went, and now we’ve been three times. That probably tells you something. Before visiting, we weren’t convinced. It’s not a cultural site, and it’s not really what people picture when they think of Vietnam. It’s a mountaintop resort and theme park. But once we went, it completely surprised us. The cable car ride alone is worth it. You glide over mountains, waterfalls and mist before arriving at what feels like a completely different world. Up the top, you’ve got the Golden Bridge, castles, gardens, entertainment and more. It’s a full day experience, and it’s always evolving. That said, it’s not for everyone. It can be crowded. So the real question is not just “is it worth visiting?” It’s whether it’s worth visiting for you. We’ve broken it down clearly in this guide, including who we think should go, who should skip it, and how to decide: 👉 https://www.frequenttraveller.com.au/is-ba-na-hills-worth-visiting/ If you’re planning a trip, this is one of those decisions that can really shape your itinerary. If you’ve been, hit reply and tell us. Did you love it or skip it? We’re always curious where people land on Ba Na Hills. Safe Travels! Ros & Alan Are you travelling soon?

Frequent Traveller News VISIT OUR BLOG | RESOURCES | ABOUT US Hi Reader, Every year we see the same thing in our Facebook groups. Someone books a Christmas beach holiday in Bali or Da Nang, then arrives to grey skies and daily downpours. It’s not bad luck. December and January are when the monsoons split Southeast Asia in two. One coast can be enjoying its best weather of the year while the other is in the middle of its wet season. Having lived in Thailand and Vietnam, we’ve seen both sides...
Frequent Traveller News VISIT OUR BLOG | RESOURCES | ABOUT US Hi Reader, We have just returned to Australia after five months travelling through Asia. We love this lifestyle that allows us to divide our time between travelling the world and being home in the land of kangaroos and beaches. Of course, this lifestyle can get tricky, and our last trip was an example of this. Sickness and an unplanned visa run made us realise just how vulnerable you can be in a foreign land. I began feeling unwell...
Frequent Traveller News VISIT OUR BLOG | RESOURCES | ABOUT US Hi Reader, We are currently in Chiang Mai and enjoying all that this dynamic city has to offer. As many of you know, we spend a lot of time here, and we aren't the only ones. Chiang Mai has a charm that draws people back. The city plays host to a mix of short-term tourists, long stay visitors and a large expat community. For the tourist, it is the gateway to hilltribe villages, elephant sanctuaries, breathtaking mountain scenery...
