Vietnam travel guide

Vietnam is a year-round destination, but timing your visit to the right region makes all the difference.

  • Best Time to Visit:  The north (Hanoi, Sapa) is best from October to April. The south (Ho Chi Minh City, Mekong Delta) is drier from November to April. Central Vietnam (Hoi An, Da Nang) shines from February to May.
  • Getting Around: Domestic flights are incredibly cheap and efficient. Trains offer a scenic coastal journey. Buses and private cars are great for shorter distances.
  • Food & Drink: You haven't lived until you've slurped a bowl of Pho from a tiny street-side stall for breakfast. Banh Mi is a perfect lunch, and fresh seafood is available everywhere along the coast.
  • Culture: Respectful clothing is key when visiting pagodas and temples. Cover your shoulders and knees. A small bargaining is expected in markets, but always with a smile.

Places to visit in Vietnam

1. Ha Long Bay

Ha Long Bay, in northern Vietnam, is dotted with 1,600 limestone islands and islets and covers an area of over 1,500sqkm. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994, for many visitors, this surrealistic place is like something right out of a movie. Approximately a four-hour drive from downtown Hanoi, the area is also home to different kinds of limestone caves such as phreatic caves, karstic foot caves and marine notch caves. Activities include exploring the many cave formations, kayaking around rocky outcrops and watching the wildlife. Read more

2. Imperial Citadel of Thang Long

The Imperial Citadel of Thang Long is an intriguing relic of Vietnam’s history and, signifying its historical and cultural importance, is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Standing 40 metres high, the central flag tower is the most recognizable feature of the Imperial Citadel and is often used as a symbol of Hanoi. This was the centre of ancient Hanoi and served as the political centre for eight centuries. Located in Ba Dinh, the Imperial Citadel houses foundations of old palaces, relics, ancient roads, ponds and wells

3. Hoi An Ancient Town

Hoi An Ancient Town offers a breath-taking mix of ornate Chinese temples, a Japanese-designed bridge, wooden shop-houses, French-colonial houses, and old canals. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999, most of the old shops have been carefully converted to modern businesses aimed at tourists including countless tailors, souvenir shops, art galleries, restaurants and cafés. An entrance fee of VND 120,000 is required for foreign tourists and VND 80,000 for locals - each ticket is valid for 10 days and covers entrance to entrance to Hoi An Ancient Town, six points of interest, and street entertainment (folk dancing, singing, and traditional games).

4. Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum

Ho Chi Minh is arguably the most popular political figure in Vietnam, and is known to his people as ‘Uncle Ho’. His body is preserved here in a glass case at the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum in central Hanoi (albeit against his wishes). Started in 1973, the construction of the mausoleum was modelled on Lenin's mausoleum in Russia. Entrance is free of charge, and visitors are required to dress appropriately out of respect for Vietnam's departed leader.

5. Cu Chi Tunnels

The Cu Chi Tunnels are basically a huge war museum offering visitors a sneak peak at the underground life of Viet Cong-era soldiers. Comprising more than 120km of tunnels, they were first started around 1948 when the Viet Cong were fighting the French. The work never stopped and resulted in a massive collection of tunnels. Today, it is one of Ho Chi Minh’s most iconic attractions where visitors can enjoy activities such as following the claustrophobia-inducing routes of the underground army, firing an M16 assault rifle, as well sampling meals that the underground soldiers had to live with years ago

6. My Son Sanctuary

My Son Hindu Sanctuary, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a great sample of the ancient Champa civilization located in the southern part of Vietnam. It was an independent state from around the 2nd to the 17th century, at which time it was occupied by Vietnam. The complex houses around 70 structures devoted to Hindu gods and goddesses and the most noticeable one, Shiva, was considered the protector of the Champa’s kings

7. Complex of Hue Monuments

Hue Imperial City, set along the northern bank of the Perfume River, features hundreds of monuments dating back to early 19th century, including the Forbidden Purple City, royal tombs, pagodas, temples, royal quarters, a library and museum, Also called the Complex of Hue Monuments, this UNESCO World Heritage Site also hosts daily cultural performances at 09:00, 10:00, 14:30 and 15:30. Entrance fee is priced at VND 150,000, which combines visits to both Hue Imperial City and Hue Museum of Royal Antiquities. A 30-minute drive from Phu Bai International Airport, Hue Imperial City is a must-visit for any visitor to Central Vietnam

8. War Remnants Museum

The War Remnants Museum once known as the ‘Museum of American War Crimes’ first opened to the public in 1975. It’s a shocking reminder of the long and brutal Vietnam War with many graphic photographs and American military equipment on display. All these weapons were used by America against the Vietnamese. The War Remnants Museum is in District 3, Ho Chi Minh City and is run by the government. It is open all year round from 07:30 to17:00. A visit to this war museum is a disturbing experience for most people and may not be suitable for children (though they are allowed to enter)

9. Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Par

Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park is a popular option for adventurous travellers looking to explore its many limestone caves and grottoes. Set within the Quang Binh Province, it’s home to the world’s largest cave, Son Doong, with sections reaching up to 200m in height, as well as Paradise Cave, which boasts spectacular shapes of limestone stalactites and stalagmites. Entrance to Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park costs VND 40,000, plus additional fees (between VND 80,000 and (VND 150,000) to enter the caves. Hiking, mountain-biking, and cave expeditions are regularly organized by tour operators in Vietnam

10. The Sand Dunes of Mui Ne

The Sand Dunes of Mui Ne are two geological wonders no visitor should ever miss out on their travel itinerary. There are numerous tour operators in Mui Ne that organize daytrips to these Saharan-like red and white sand dunes, but you can easily make your way to both locales if you prefer exploring according to your own pace. Visitors can rent plastic sleds and it is a wise idea to check the price and agree on it beforehand. Another interesting activity is kite flying as well as catching the beautiful sunset here. These dunes are a popular picnic place for locals too.Show less

Common Scams in Vietnam:

Vietnam, with its rich history, stunning landscapes, and vibrant culture, has become an increasingly popular travel destination. However, like any other tourist hotspot, Vietnam is not immune to scams. Being aware of common scams in the country can help travellers stay vigilant and ensure a smoother, more enjoyable journey. Read more

Here are some prevalent scams in Vietnam that you should be aware of along with tips on how to avoid falling victim to them:
  • The Helpful Local Scam: In this scam, a seemingly friendly local offers unsolicited help, such as providing directions or assisting with luggage. Once the assistance is offered, the scammer demands an exorbitant fee for their services. To avoid this, politely decline help unless absolutely necessary, and agree on any charges upfront.
  • Motorbike scams: Motorbike scams are quite common in Vietnam. Be careful when renting a motorbike from a local person who doesn’t own a rental business. They may charge you extra fees or steal your passport. Always rent from a reputable company and take pictures of the bike before you rent it.
  • Pickpockets and snatch thieves: Petty crimes are super common in Vietnam. Be aware of your surroundings and keep your belongings close to you. Avoid carrying large amounts of cash and important documents with you.
  • Cyclo and Taxi Scams: Cyclos and taxis are convenient modes of transportation in Vietnam, but scams involving these services are common. Some drivers may insist on inflated fares or take unnecessarily long routes. Always use a reputable taxi company or opt for metered taxis, and establish the fare or use ride-sharing apps beforehand. Some taxi drivers may take longer routes to increase the fare. Always ask the driver to use the meter and make sure it’s running. Some cyclo drivers may overcharge you or take you to a different location. Always negotiate the price before taking a ride and make sure the driver knows where you want to go.
  • Fruit basket and coconut seller scams: Be wary of street vendors selling fruit baskets or coconuts. They may overcharge you or give you fake money as a change. Always check the money you receive and negotiate the price before buying anything.
  • Duplicate businesses: Be careful when visiting shops or restaurants. Some businesses may have similar names or logos to reputable businesses. They may overcharge you or give you fake products. Always check the name and logo of the business before entering
  • Shoe shining scams: Be careful when getting your shoes shined on the street. Some shoe shiners may overcharge you or steal your shoes. Always negotiate the price before getting your shoes shined.
  • Donut restaurant and bar scams: Be careful when visiting donut restaurants or bars. Some places may overcharge you or add extra items to your bill. Always check the bill before paying
  • Luggage scams: Be careful when leaving your luggage with someone. Some people may steal your luggage or charge you extra fees. Always use a reputable luggage storage service.
  • Shopping scams: Be careful when shopping in markets or stores. Some vendors may overcharge you or give you fake products. Always negotiate the price before buying anything and check the quality of the product.
  • Fake Tour Guide scams: Impersonating a tour guide, scammers may approach tourists, offering guided tours to popular attractions. Once payment is made, they vanish. Always book tours through reputable agencies, hotels, or online platforms to ensure legitimacy.
  • Currency scams: Receiving counterfeit money as change is a risk, especially in busy markets. Thoroughly inspect bills, and be cautious during transactions. Familiarize yourself with the local currency's appearance and security features. Many scammers take advantage of the high denomination of the Vietnamese Dong and often cheat tourists by not providing proper change or by switching out high-value currency notes with a lower-value note, make sure you pay attention while giving and receiving money.
  • Hotel Booking Scams: Bogus hotel booking websites may appear legitimate, tricking travellers into making reservations with nonexistent accommodations. Use well-known booking platforms, read reviews, and verify reservations directly with the hotel.
  • Gem and Art Scams: Vietnam is known for its art and gem markets, but tourists may fall prey to scams involving overpriced or fake items. Be cautious when making such purchases, seek reputable dealers, and verify the authenticity of products. Show less

Tips to Avoid Scams in Vietnam:

  • Research Extensively: Before your trip, research common scams specific to your destination. Awareness is your best defense against scams.
  • Stay Informed: Stay updated on the latest travel advisories and forums where fellow travellers share their experiences and tips.
  • Keep Valuables Secure: Use anti-theft bags, money belts, and hotel safes to safeguard your valuables, minimizing the risk of theft.
  • Be Wary of Unsolicited Offers: If an offer seems too good to be true, it probably is. Exercise caution with unsolicited assistance, especially when a fee is involved.

While scams exist in Vietnam, they shouldn't overshadow the country's beauty and warmth. By staying informed, using reputable services, and remaining vigilant, travellers can navigate Vietnam's vibrant streets, markets, and attractions with confidence.

By arming yourself with knowledge about common scams and adopting a vigilant mindset, you can ensure a safe and enjoyable journey through this captivating Southeast Asian nation.

Processing time is around 10 to 20 working days, depending on the institution’s support and immigration workload.
