    Hi,
    looking for a bit of advice. I'm going to Vietnam in November with 4 friends and am getting conflicting advice on how to obtain a visa on line as there is no embassy in Dublin. Has anyone used these online companies, how Kosher are they? I dont want to pay up and find the document I have is worthless when I arrive in Vietnam. Any info is much appreciated. Marie:)

    Depends on which one you use but the big ones like http://www.myvietnamvisa.com/ are kosher. They get you authorization and you print it out and bring it with you to get the visa on arrival. No rip off fees or anything like that, it is a nice service compared to what Irish people had to go through a few years ago before there was a visa on arrival option.

    That's really just wasted effort. Myvietnamvisa works perfect.

    Hey there (sorry for hijack OP)
    Can you recommend a good tour to go on for both Sa Pa and and Halong Bay.
    I would like to do 2 days (train, hotel, train) in Sa Pa and 2 night in Halong (both on boat or one boat, one Cat Ba Island...I dont mind really).
    I dont want really budget tours but cant afford expensive ones either...thanks !!!
