A married couple shares their two-day romantic getaway from Da Nang to Hoi An, staying at a riverfront resort. The trip balances poolside relaxation with cultural exploration: they visit Old Town by bicycle, enjoy happy hour at Shamrock K Bar & Grill, and attend the large-scale Memories show, which features 400 performers and a water-screen projection. They also get a foot and leg massage for 250,000 VND (about $10) and dine at Hidden Thager Thai restaurant (total $30) and Paws and Enjoy (cao lau for $3). The total cost for the weekend came to $477, broken down as: hotel $190, VIP show tickets $120, meals $57, transport $38, drinks $28, massage $23, and coffee $21. The video emphasizes that the trip is affordable for couples and provides practical tips such as carrying passport photos for hotel check-in and using open-air taxis (50,000 VND per person) after the show to avoid Grab delays.
