Contrary to common belief, Vietnam is considered to be one of the safest countries to visit. However; just like in the rest of the world, there might be thieves and pickpockets, both in busy places, and on motorbikes, these activities are most likely to arise in Ho Chi Minh city, but not in Hanoi. During your trip you should be vigilant at all times to avoid these from happening. Therefore; we recommend that you should not bring valuables such as expensive watches and jewelries while you are out and about.

The weather in Vietnam can be split by region. In Hanoi & the north, May to October is hot and humid with high rainfall; November to April is cooler and dry. In the far north, December & January can be particularly cold. Central Vietnam experiences hot, dry weather between January & August when temperatures can hit the mid-30°C’s; whilst high levels of rainfall can occur in September, October & November. Southern Vietnam is generally dry and hot from November to April, and warm and wet between May & October, with the highest rainfall in June, July & August. With different kind of climates, Vietnam is a perfect destination for your holiday, while it may be rainy in one region, it might be sunny in the other. You can inform us of what your interests are, and we will help you find the ideal tour that will suit your needs and preferences.

Actually US dollar now becomes popular used in Vietnam so you would be able to use both US dollar and VND during your trip. The USD is also widely accepted as a mean of payment in the tourism attractions and the major cities such as Hanoi, Danang, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh city..., you can use USD at most hotels and big shops or restaurants. To make things easier, prices are often quoted in US Dollars in tourist areas. Besides, the official currency in Vietnam is Vietnam Dong, which is accepted everywhere in this country. It is easier for you to pay VND for small items on your daily expenses like street food, local goods in local market…

We recommend you should change the money as soon as you arrive at the airport, where the banks and ATM are available and convenient with English speaking staff. In case you feel tired after long flight and do not want to change money right away, you can change cash and travelers’ cheques at big hotels or at authorized foreign exchange banks, which are abundant almost everywhere in Vietnam. In addition, wherever you travel to, you’ll always find someone willing to change dollars into VND, though rates will vary. When receiving Dong, you’ll be presented with a huge pile of notes. Refuse any badly torn notes and ask for a mix of denominations so that you always have a few low-value notes in hand for small purchases.

It depends on what food you want. You can eat at western restaurants ( French, Italian, Spanish, Jewish...) or Asian restaurants (Vietnamese , Indian , Thai , restaurants, Korean, Japanese...), where they serve their typical dishes. You can also eat Pizza, KFC, Mac Donald, Fish & Chips at food stalls, food chains and cafe's. We recommend trying at least once at a street food restaurant during your visit, which will add to your experiences of Vietnam. The most typical dishes & drinks of Vietnam include: Nem (spring rolls), Pho, Bun (noodles), Bun Cha ( noodles with barbecued pork)
