Planning your Vietnam trip
Best time to go: In the south, December to February brings cooler, dry weather. In the north, March to April and October to December are generally pleasant. Central Vietnam often has strong winds, rough seas and rain from September to February.
- Ha Long BayBoat trips pass scenic limestone islands. Trips commonly last one to three days.
- Mekong DeltaWater markets and busy waterways offer a view of daily life in southern Vietnam.
- HanoiThe capital combines busy city streets with traditional culture.
- Sa PaThe northern landscape includes rice terraces that turn yellow during harvest season.
Scams to watch for in Vietnam
- Taxi overcharging and rigged metersA driver quotes an inflated fare or uses a meter that runs too fast. Some taxis lack displayed fares or driver identification. Taxi scams are less common in Da Nang. Meter fixing in Da Lat is described as a much reduced problem.
- Hotel price scamsHotel scams are described as very common, including at mid-range hotels. Hotel prices are also a major scam concern across Vietnam, but no further method is described.
- Higher tourist prices and unclear market chargesSellers quote higher prices to visitors and expect bargaining. At Ben Thanh Market, the quoted amount, currency or exchange rate used for change may be left unclear. A high opening price alone does not mean the goods are fake.
