Best time to travel
Vietnam is a truly year-round destination, travel to any part of Vietnam during any season is possible. Truth be told, there is not such a thing as visiting Vietnam at the right or wrong time as during most months of the year you will experience both sunshine and rain in varying quantities.
Whilst Vietnam is typically warm and humid, the weather can vary significantly from one region to the next because of the country’s length.
Perhaps the best time to visit Vietnam is during one of its two low seasons: between April and June and between September and November.
