From what I've heard it's a nice country.

 

Just be carefull eating at the markets. They have some very weird tastes.

 

But the village on the water looks good to visit. Floating fishing villages. Ha long bay.

Yup. That's cos they're poor and have to get their protein from something. If you've been to Thailand you should be used to some of the idiosyncrasies of the region. Go with your gut feelings and don't spend any more than $10USD on anything without thinking it through very carefully first. Speak to the longer term travellers you meet out there and they'll be able to give you solid guidance.

 

Food and people make a country, scenery gets a bit boring after a while. If you find a guest house you 'feel' comfortable in, just stay there the week and soak up the local atmosphere. It's better than trying to cram in lots of sights. (For information, my,[now], wife and I spent 30 months travelling around Asia and Australasia a few years back).
