    Highlights of Vietnam North to South (14 Days)

    It's hard to put into words how amazing this trip was. From the accommodations, service, food, and daily activities/excursions, everything was outstanding – not to mention our wonderful guides who were all knowledgeable, authentic and friendly.

    Even before we left, the level of professionalism and attention to detail exhibited by our Indochina Tour advisors, Amara and Kea, made me confident that this would be a really good trip.... but even with the bar set high, this trip far exceeded all our expectations still.

    I would 100% consider using IndochinaTour.com for planning another trip in the region, and highly recommend them to anyone else who is considering one.

    Stellar tour company

    We had such a truly amazing time in Cambodia and Thailand with the private tour Indochina Tours planned for us..we decided we needed to go to Vietnam next year with the help of Indochina tours.

    Ivy Wu who worked with me endlessly to plan the itinerary and especially Helen Chhour, the in-country contact in Cambodia, were simply stellar in their customer service and knowledge of the country and so willing to make changes due to some last minute health issues of my husband, changing our tours to private when needed to accomodate his problems walking and securing better seating and kid glove service on our flights. Simply superb.

    We loved the tour guides and drivers in Cambodia and Thailand (especially Chen Suon in Cambodia...he was wonderful and kind in dealing with Eric's issues, but also warm and friendly and knowledgable in so many ways).

    Just stellar all round.

    An excellent, fun and varied itinerary in Vietnam and Cambodia!

    We have just returned from a wonderful trip to Vietnam and Cambodia. Indochina were excellent from start to finish. Sreypov was able to put together the perfect itinerary for us - responding and adapting very quickly during the planning stages.

    Kea gave us great support in organising everything during the lead up to the trip. Our guides and drivers in Ho Chi Minh, the Mekong, Phnom Penh and Siem Reap were all excellent. We had the perfect balance of culture, history, beach time and great food.

    Amazing experience in SE Asia

    My granddaughter and I traveled to Siem Reep, Cambodia for 3 nights on a private tour. My agents were Ms. Maiky and Ms. Kea. Ms. Maiky recommended some great options and listened to what I wanted. Our hotel was wonderful, the Koulen Central Hotel and we had wonderful breakfasts there included. We witnessed the grandeur of sunrise at Angkor Wat, multiple temples there, a countryside jeep tour, traveled to Tonle Sap Lake and visited a floating village. We inadvertently witnessed a local funeral and two weddings. We received an amazing massage after a full tour day in the nicest spa I have ever been to. Incredibly tranquil and soothing. Our guide, Mr. Socheat, knew everything about the places we visited and answered all our questions. It was a very full itinerary and that is what I asked for.

    We then traveled to Thailand for 7 nights. The first 3 nights were in Bangkok at the Amara Bangkok Hotel, very modern and efficient property, also with a full buffet breakfast included. Our guide there was Ms. Ketsara and she was wonderful; very down to earth, lighthearted, and flexible with our itinerary. She came up with things to do that weren't on the original itinerary that we really enjoyed. We took a private motorboat tour on the Chao Praya River and passed temples along the way. Our favorite visit was to the Grand Palace and riding by tuk-tuk to the famous Reclining Buddha. One morning we drove to the train market and the floating market, both highly recommended.

    We then flew to Chiang Mai in northern Thailand which had a completely different vibe and some intense spiritual energy. Our hotel there was the Boddhi Serene Boutique Hotel, which, after Bangkok felt like it could use a fresh coat of paint and deep clean, but it was a beautiful, peaceful property. We were there when the 7.7 earthquake hit nearby in Myanmar. The hotel staff was calm and efficient. It was an intense experience and we're grateful we were there at the time instead of almost anywhere else. We spent our days walking into town and checking out the sites.

    We then flew to Phuket and stayed at the Burasari Phuket Resort. I didn't schedule full days in either Chiang Mai or Phuket as we were eager for some down time. We did do a full day tour by speedboat to Phi Phi Island and other smaller islands in the area. We snorkeled and swam and it was pleasant but a little too touristy for me. My 20-year-old granddaughter would have loved another day in Phuket and Bangkok.

    All our hotels were good and our guides were good. The agents I booked with responded efficiently to any questions I had. I recommend travel with Indo-China Tours. They know the area and respond well to all requests.

    Great tour great memories!

    I worked with Ivy at Indochina Tour to create a custom itinerary. I sent her the specific sights that I was particularly interested in and ones that I wanted to leave out and she curated that to a trip that we loved.

    The guides and hotels were great. The one criticism I had with Indochina Tour is that after we booked the trip, the operations person that was responsible for the tour logistics would not respond to my emails and texts for a long time. This deficiency in communication was frustrating.

    Thailand Experience

    Amazing private trip put together by IndoChina in all aspects, organized brilliantly and professionally by Pheakdey and Kea.

    Everything was taken care of for us, including private tours, private driver and car, local food experiences and most importantly amazing professional tour guides - especially Nan our tour guide for Bangkok she went out of her way to make our trip unforgetable.

    Highly recommend IndoChina as your agent for South East Asia - great service and best prices as well (no rip-offs).

    FAQs about Planning A Vietnam Trip

    When is the Best Time to Visit Vietnam?

    The best time to visit Vietnam is during the dry season, from November to April. Weather varies in the different regions, but at this time conditions align for a great travel experience everywhere in Vietnam. Sunny, clear skies and warm temperatures are perfect for exploring the streets of Ho Chi Minh City, seeing the stunning landscapes of Halong Bay, or relaxing on the beaches in Phu Quoc.

    December and January are the peak travel months. From February to April, you can still find great weather with smaller crowds.

    The rainy season, from May to October, can be good for budget travelers or people looking for a quieter experience. Heavy rains can disrupt plans, but there are lots of indoor activities to enjoy in big cities.

    What is the No.1 Tourist Spot in Vietnam?

    Halong Bay is consistently ranked as the premiere attraction in Vietnam. The UNESCO World Heritage Site is a place of breathtaking beauty. Towering limestone karsts soar out of the emerald waters in a unique landscape.

    Travelers can enjoy a cruise on the water. Full-day or overnight cruises are a chance to explore the almost 2,000 islands in the bay. Enjoy a sunset dinner of fresh seafood and water activities like swimming and kayaking.

    Halong Bay also has great beaches, cultural sites, and lively markets. It’s conveniently located close to Hanoi, making it easy to reach for international travelers.

    How Many Days Are Enough for a Vietnam Tour?

    You can see the highlights of Vietnam on an 8-day tour. Travel the length of the country, starting with exploring the capital, Hanoi. It’s a city of culture and history with sites like the Temple of Literature and Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. Then, take an overnight cruise of Halong Bay, to see the unique natural beauty of the limestone karsts.

    In central Vietnam, you can visit Hoi An Ancient Town, a charming town that preserves the feeling of a historical trading port. It’s surrounded by traditional villages and serene countryside. Ho Chi Minh City is the vibrant hub of southern Vietnam and gateway to the Mekong Delta. The city is a place of vibrant urban culture and historical sites from colonial times and the Vietnam War. A boat tour of the Mekong River will take you to see floating markets and local cottage industries.

    With a few more days, you can go trekking in the mountainous Sapa region in northern Vietnam. Or, spend a few days unwinding on the beaches of Nha Trang of Phu Quoc.

    How to Get to Vietnam?

    Flying is the most convenient way to get to Vietnam. Hanoi Noi Bai International Airport and Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City are the two largest in the country and the most common entry points for travelers. Between them, there are over 110 flight routes to 26 countries and territories around the world. Flights arrive daily from the US, UK, Europe, Australia, the Middle East, and all over Asia.

    Domestic flights are convenient and affordable, so getting around in Vietnam is no problem. Travelers touring across the country often arrive in either Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City based on their itinerary and then depart from the other.

    Do I Need a Visa to Visit Vietnam?

    Tourist visas are needed by most international travelers to Vietnam. The best way is to use Vietnam’s e-visa system. E-visas can be applied for online and usually take three business days to process. It costs 25 USD for a 90-day, multiple-entry visa that can be used at all international airports and major border crossings.

    Phu Quoc is a visa-free island for most travelers. Stays of up to 30 days are permitted for travelers arriving by air from another country or from Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City. A tourist visa is needed to travel from Phu Quoc to other parts of Vietnam.

    Is Vietnam Cheap or Expensive to Visit? How Much Does a Trip Cost?

    The average price for mid-range travelers in Vietnam is around 50-80 USD per day. At that price, you can stay at a comfortable 3-star hotel close to tourist areas and enjoy all the popular attractions. Food costs for street food and small local eateries aren’t expensive, and it’s some of the best food in the country.

    Luxury travel costs around 150-300 USD per day. This includes staying at 5-star hotels and using private transportation around the city. Street food is not to be missed, but luxury travel can include Vietnam’s fine dining options and upscale bars in places like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

    How Much is $100 in Vietnam Currency? Can I Use US Dollars?

    Currently, 100 USD is around 2,460,000 VND. The Vietnamese Dong is the national currency and commonly comes in denominations of 10,000 to 500,000. Daily costs are relatively low in Vietnam, so 100 USD can go far. A bottle of water usually costs around 5,000-10,000 VND or 0.2-0.4 USD, an average cup of coffee is 1.2 USD, and street food costs 2-3 USD per person. Average taxi fares in a city like Hanoi are around 2-4 USD.

    US dollars are accepted at most hotels and larger businesses in Vietnam, but local currency is needed for other transactions. For markets and street food, using VND in cash is the most convenient option. There are many places to exchange currency. Banks usually offer the best rates.

    How to Keep Safe when Visiting Vietnam?

    Vietnam is a very safe country for travelers where violent and serious crimes against tourists are rare. The best way to stay safe is to follow common sense and avoid isolated or unlit areas at night.

    Travelers should be cautious about petty crimes such as pickpocketing and bag snatching. Keep track of your belongings, and don’t keep all your important travel documents in one place. The most common scams tourists face are being charged higher prices. Negotiate taxi fares before entering the vehicle, and don’t agree to buy anything before knowing the full price.

    What to Wear when visiting Vietnam?

    What to wear in Vietnam depends on where you go. The northern region can be cool, particularly at night, and a sweater or light jacket might be needed. Beachware is appropriate for swimming or other water activities. Good quality, comfortable shoes are always essential whether trekking or exploring city streets.

    Vietnam is a conservative country, and clothes that are too tight or revealing are better to avoid. When visiting temples or religious sites, modest attire should be worn. Clothing should cover the knees and shoulders, and any hats should be removed.

    Dos and Don’ts When Visiting Vietnam

    Do try the street food. It is some of the most delicious and authentic food.
    Do learn some basic phrases in the local language. It is highly appreciated by local people.
    Do carry small bills in local currency for easy transactions.
    Do be prepared for traffic, especially in cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
    Don’t touch anyone on the head. It is disrespectful.
    Don’t forget to wear sunscreen and a hat to protect your skin and avoid heatstroke.
    Don’t raise your voice or show anger in public. It is considered impolite.
    Don’t drink the tap water. Stick to bottled water to stay safe.

    Traveling Vietnam and Cambodia Together is Most Recommended

    Vietnam and Cambodia offer distinct and complimentary travel experiences. Both countries have a wealth of cultural and historic sites with stunning natural surroundings. After touring and exploring the Mekong Delta around Ho Chi Minh City, you can travel to Siem Reap and see the unforgettable Angkor Wat.

    Sharing a border, travel between the two countries is easy. Many flights are available from cities in Vietnam to Siem Reap and Phnom Penh. Cambodia is less convenient to reach from countries in Europe and North America, so visiting from Vietnam is an easy way for a more immersive tour of Southeast Asia.

    Can I Travel Vietnam Independently?

    It is perfectly ok to travel independently in Vietnam. Tourism is an important part of the local economy, and the travel infrastructure makes it simple to visit all the best sites and get around the country. Many Vietnamese people in tourist areas speak at least some English, and translation apps can help in other situations.

    Traveling with a tour guide is recommended for people who don’t want to worry about making all the travel arrangements, or who want to find more of the country's hidden gems. Our guided tours can be fully personalized, and from there, you’ll get door-to-door service from the airport to the hotel and all the best sites. Our professional English-speaking guides will provide you with cultural background and insight into the places you visit and take you off the beaten path to sites only local knowledge can show you.
