Vietnam is a vibrant and diverse country with a rich history, beautiful landscapes, and delicious cuisine. Whether you are foodies, nature lovers, history buffs, or adventurers, Vietnam will offer something special to you, no matter whether you are travelling with your kid(s) or just your husband/wife.
The following travel guide will help you to plan your perfect trip to Vietnam, especially if this is your first Vietnam trip!
1. Choose Where to Go
With so many wonderful destinations in Vietnam to choose from it can be overwhelming when you have to decide which to see and which to leave out.
With our knowledge of Vietnam and feedback from our customers, we suggest you visit Hanoi and Halong Bay in the north, Hoi An and Danang in the middle, and Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta in the south on your first trip.
1). Hanoi — the capital city with rich history and local cuisine
As the capital of Vietnam, Hanoi is a must-visit when planning a Vietnam trip.
For those who like history and culture, don't miss the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology, the Mausoleum of Ho Chi Minh, and One Pillar Pagoda.
Your Hanoi trip would not be complete without a visit to the Old Quarter where you could experience local life and taste the local cuisine.
Vietnam's traditional water puppet show is recommended, which is usually enjoyed by adults as well as kids.
If your time permits, you could take some one or two-day tours to explore the best places surrounding Hanoi, such as Ninh Binh or Mai Chau.
2). Halong Bay — for UNESCO heritage seascape cruises
As a UNESCO Natural World Heritage site, Halong Bay is a must-see destination in Vietnam that offers stunning scenery and a wide range of activities suitable for families and couples.
However, if you haven't found the perfect cruise, your trip might not be as amazing as you imagined.
How to choose a Halong Bay cruise?
If you're like us and you don't love huge impersonal tours, definitely go for a smaller cruise ship. And for special occasions like anniversaries or birthdays, we can arrange a whole houseboat just for your family or partner.
If you want to have fewer boats around you, choose a cruise that takes you to Bai Tu Long or Lan Ha Bay - which are more secluded and less-crowded bays. All three bays have basically the same views and the same activities, so you won't be missing out!
Contact us and our Vietnam specialists will recommend you the best cruise for you.
3). Hoi An — a charming ancient town with cultural activities
Hoi An is a must-see in central Vietnam. It is a charismatic ancient town with well-preserved architecture, lantern-lined streets, and a vibrant food scene.
Take a walk to explore the ancient architecture — pagodas, temples, and traditional shops — and to experience Hoi An's slow-pace of life.
If travelling with your kid(s), don't miss learning how to create traditional lanterns. It's a fun activity for the whole family. If travelling on a full moon day, you can join in the monthly lantern festival.
If interested, leave a half-day to visit a local market and take a cooking class.
The countryside surrounding Hoi An is beautiful. Our unique half-day farming experience tour allows you to see rural life in Vietnam and experience the peaceful countryside.
4). Ho Chi Minh City — a bustling metropolis with Vietnam War sites
Ho Chi Minh City, the biggest city in the south of Vietnam, is one of the most popular ports of entry and departure in Vietnam. Most travelers spend one to two days there to see the bustling metropolis, which is a mix of colonial and modern architecture, museums, and vibrant nightlife.
You could learn about the Vietnam War from world-class museums and the Cu Chi Tunnels, have a cup of coffee atop skyline towers, or try the street foods.
5). The Mekong Delta — floating markets and traditional villages
As the rice bowl of Vietnam, the Mekong Delta is vibrant with rustic life: see busy floating markets, lush-green rice fields, and fruitful gardens. No matter whether you take a boat trip or cycle around the villages, you can get an insight into authentic local life.
Just 2–3 hours' driving from Ho Chi Minh City, you could take a day trip to the Mekong Delta or spend a night there to catch the early-morning floating markets (the most traditional and authentic ones).

2. Decide How Many Days to Stay
For your first Vietnam trip, we recommend you have a 10-day trip to visit the highlights in the top cities from north to south, covering Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh City, and the Mekong Delta.
Get some inspiration from our page 10 Days Itineraries in Vietnam: 5 Top Itineraries for First-Timers, Couples, and Families. (For a shorter trip, you can see page: 7 Days in Vietnam - 6 Best Itinerary Ideas)
If you have 15 days, we would recommend you spend an extra 3/4 days in the north to see Hanoi's surrounding highlights (such as Mai Chau, and Ninh Binh) or go farther north to Sapa, and 2–3 days in the central region to see Da Nang or Hue, or enjoy some free days on a beach. See more info on the page How to Spend 2 Weeks in Vietnam: Top 4 Itineraries
If you have 2–3 weeks or longer, it is possible to involve one more country in your trip. Thailand-Vietnam, Vietnam-Cambodia, and Thailand-Cambodia-Vietnam are popular choices. Get some inspiration from our 19-Day Highlights of Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam.
These are just a couple of examples of possible itineraries!
- 10-Day Highlights of Vietnam: Hanoi (2 days), Halong Bay (2 days), Hoi An (2 days), Ho Chi Minh (2 days), and Mekong Delta (2 days). See our sample itinerary for inspiration: 10-Day Best of Vietnam with Mekong Delta.
- 15-Day Vietnam Discovery Tour: Hanoi (4 days), Halong Bay (2 days), Hue (2 days), Da Nang (1 day), Hoi An (2 days), Ho Chi Minh (2 days), and Mekong Delta (2 days). See our sample itinerary for inspiration: In-Depth Vietnam Discovery from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City
Contact our travel specialist to inquire about a Vietnam tour, and you will get a reply with an itinerary and quotation within 24 hours.
3. Consider Your Vietnam Trip Budget
The biggest part of your tour costs may be the international flights. Airfares vary a lot for different routes, so make a comparison before booking. Check with your consultant: he/she may get a better rate.
Vietnam's domestic flights are very affordable. For instance, a single flight costs around just US$80 for economy class in low season. Airfares from Vietnam to other Southeast Asian countries are similar.
Hotel room rates vary from guesthouses' to deluxe hotels'. As Vietnam's system is different from international hotel star ratings, it would be better to classify Vietnamese hotels as 'Comfortable'/'Boutique' (US$50–100 per room), 'Luxury' (US$150–200 per room), or 'Guesthouses' (from US$10 per room).
As for food, you could choose to taste Vietnam's street food from just US$1–2 per meal, or have upmarket cuisine for only US$20–50 per meal, or anything in between.
Here are the prices for a private tour based on a group of 2 people during the peak season, for your reference:
- On a medium budget, touring Vietnam typically costs around US$200–250 USD per day per person (including 4- or 5-star hotels, airfares within Vietnam, attractions, guides, and transfers).
- For a higher budget of US$250–350 per day per person, more comfort can be enjoyed (including 5-star or plus hotels, airfares within Vietnam, attractions, guides, and transfers).
- For a family trip (2 adults plus 2–3 children) for 2 weeks in Vietnam or in Southeast Asia, it normally costs US$8,000–15,000 per family excluding international flights from/to America or Europe.
Travel with us to enjoy a comfortable and flexible private tour.
4. Decide When to Travel to Vietnam
As a long and narrow country, stretching north to south, with a long coast, the weather is pleasantly milder all year round in Vietnam, with fewer extremes of temperature than inland countries.
The weather varies between northern, central, and southern Vietnam. Although the best time for travel depends on the region you visit, November to March are the best months to travel to most places in the country.
The months of April and late October (just after or before the peak season) are ideal times for those wishing to find a compromise between the price and the weather.
November–March: The Mild, Dry Festival Season
This season is blessed with Vietnam's most comfortable weather. You would also get the chance to immerse yourself in the atmospheric festivals and holidays, such as Christmas, New Year, and Tet (Vietnamese New Year, during January or February).
In this peak season, hotels are easily booked up, and tour costs go up accordingly. Due to the high demand, you're suggested to book your tour at least 3 months in advance.
April–October: The Hot, Rainy Low Season
Visiting Vietnam in the rainy season, you can enjoy lower prices and fewer crowds.
Thanks to its long, S-shaped coastal geography, which means Vietnam's weather is very changeable, the rainy days are not often persistent. The rainfall mainly comes in the afternoon or evening, which would allow you to enjoy most of the day. Doing outdoor activities in the morning to avoid the afternoon heat and taking rain gear are recommended.
Typhoons are likely to happen in July and August in Northern Vietnam, but in October in central Vietnam. Thus, a flexible itinerary and buying travel insurance are helpful to make possible adjustments.
Note: Rainy seasons vary in Vietnam — north and south: May–October; central: September–December. >>>More on Best Times to Visit Vietnam and seasonal travel tips
5. Consider How You'll Travel
If you are traveling with kids or you are a couple, a private guided tour is the best way to enhance your journey as it can provide a more personalized, educational, and stress-free travel experience.
With a private guided tour, you can customize your itinerary to fit your interests, preferences, and pace. A local guide can offer valuable insights and knowledge about the destination, including its history, culture, traditions, and hidden gems, and help you navigate through Vietnam, saving you time and energy in figuring out transportation, directions, and logistics.
Contact us now to start your Vietnam trip planning, and no matter what you're celebrating — anniversary, birthday… — we'll create an unforgettable trip for you.

Our recent time spent in Siem Reap was made even more memorable by our expert guide, Som Piseth. Som was knowledgeable, attentive, flexible and super helpful - we learnt so much about Siem Reap and Cambodia in our 3 days with him. His English was excellent and his knowledge of, and pride in, his country was outstanding. We would highly recommend Som for anyone wanting an excellent guide in Siem Reap! More

Asia Highlights trip to Thailand
Our first tour guide in Bangkok, Marie, was great to tour around with. She was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and spoke wonderful English. Our next stop in Chang Mai we were greeted by our new tour guide, Rafael. He too was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and spoke wonderful English. He made it feel as if we were traveling around with a long time friend. Every time we arrived at a new destination, we were greeted at the airport by someone with a sign with our name making our travels easy. I would definitely recommend Asia Highlights to anyone looking for a well planned trip of a lifetime! More

Thailand
We loved Chiang Mai and Susie did a great job showing us several temples, taking many pictures of us with the elephants at the sanctuary (a definite highlight of the entire trip!), and making sure we were well fed, which became a running joke between us.We had a very relaxing few days in Phuket enjoying the beautiful beaches. Kai was great, answering all of our questions and giving us a nice tour of the old town. The all-day speedboat tour of the Phi Phi islands started off a little shaky as the sea was quite rough so if you’re at all uncomfortable bouncing around in a speedboat, you might want to skip that tour. Things did calm down as the day went on and some of the areas they took us to for swimming, snorkeling, etc were really beautiful. A couple of the islands were too crowded with people. More

Ask for Victor!
If you are traveling to Bangkhok you need to request Victor. He made our trip amazing! My family completed bucket list items with his guidance.

Everyone we encountered was awesome- but Victor is the reason for my 5 star review! More

It was a whirlwind across a number of cities, but a very comprehensive experience across the many sides and cultures of China.

moreFrom the time we landed in Beijing until we left, we were well taken care of. My wife and I had Lily Liu as our guide and she was amazing. From arranging visits to all the different sights, to teaching us the history, it was fantastic.
