Frequently Asked Questions

1 Which tour is best for Vietnam?

It depends on your interests! Some of our most popular tours include:

  • Classic Vietnam: Hanoi - Ha Long Bay - Hoi An - Ho Chi Minh City (ideal for first-time visitors)
  • Cultural discovery: Explore historical sites, local villages, and authentic cuisine
  • Adventure & Nature: Trekking in Sapa, cruising in Ha Long Bay, biking in the Mekong Delta

Let us know your preferences and we’ll recommend the perfect tour for you.

2 How many days is ideal for a Vietnam trip?

Ideally, 10 to 14 days gives you enough time to explore Vietnam from north to south without rushing. But even a shorter trip of 7 days can be very rewarding if well planned. We can tailor the itinerary to fit your time and interests.

3 Why should I spend 21 days in Vietnam instead of 10 or 14?

A 3-week itinerary is the "luxury of time." It allows you to move at a slower, more immersive pace and explore regions that shorter tours must skip. You can venture deep into the Northern Highlands (Ha Giang Loop), spend meaningful time in remote ethnic villages, and still have a few days for total relaxation on pristine beaches like Phu Quoc or Quy Nhon.

4 Can I travel by train during a 3-week trip?

Yes! With 21 days, you have the leisure to experience the Thong Nhat train. A popular leg is the night train from Hanoi to Hue or the scenic coastal route from Hue to Da Nang. It’s an authentic way to see the landscape, though domestic flights are still recommended for very long distances (e.g., Da Nang to Saigon) to save time for sightseeing.

5 Is it easy to get laundry done on a 3-week trip?

Extremely easy. You don’t need to pack 21 outfits. Vietnamese hotels offer fast and very cheap laundry services (often returned the same day). Packing for 7 to 10 days is sufficient even for a 3-week journey.

6 Should I include Sapa or Ha Giang in a 3-week itinerary?

Ideally, both! In 21 days, you can spend 3 days in Sapa for classic rice terrace trekking and then 3-4 days in Ha Giang for the most dramatic mountain scenery in Southeast Asia. Ha Giang is less touristy than Sapa and is often the #1 highlight for long-term travelers.

7 How do I handle the changing climate over 3 weeks?

Since Vietnam is long, you may experience different weather as you travel.

  • Tip: Pack layers. The North can be chilly in the mountains, while the South is almost always tropical. Check the specific seasons for each region (North, Central, South) as they vary significantly throughout the year.
