TRAVEL TIPS AND TRICKS: 5 KEY THINGS TO KNOW FOR VIETNAM TRIP

Vietnam is an attractive destination for many tourists. You heard a lot about Vietnam and you also would like to go there. However, if you want to have a safe and worry-free trip in Vietnam, you should learn some tips that are compiled in the following list.
 

1. Don’t underestimate the distance between tourism places in Vietnam

In many Asian countries, getting from A to B takes longer than you expected. This is really true in Vietnam. Vietnam is a long - coastal country bending in the S-shape. You can imagine the distance from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City is 1.724,2 km. Therefore, if you would like to have a motorbike trip or travel by trains, be smart with your itinerary, plan accordingly and make sure you do not bite more than you can chew.

2. Changeable weather 

Generally, Vietnam has humid and hot weather. Weather in Vietnam is significant different among three main regions North – Centre – South. It can be hot sunny in Phu Quoc while snowing in Sapa. Especially, in Ho Chi Minh City, it’s sunshine one minute, rain the next there, you have to prepare for anything.
Northern Vietnam: hot wet summers and cool dry winters. It can be cold from September to November.
Central Vietnam: hot dry weather. From May to July, temperature can hit the forties.
Southern Vietnam: Only 2 defined seasons - wet and dry. Good time for travelling is from December to May.

3. Learn how to haggle 

In most situations, there is no fixed price in Vietnam, so you should learn how to haggle for good price. You should be friendly, respect sellers and ask they reduce price for the items you would like to buy from them. In fact, prices for things in Vietnam are cheap so if you can haggle you can save costs for your trips.

4. Hoi An is quainter than you think

Many tourists said that Hoi An Old Town is crowded so it's noisy. But it is not really true. Hoi An is a calm and peaceful in the morning. If you would like to feel the mysterious beauty of Hoi An, wake up earlier. Walking or biking on the chessboard –style streets in ancient atmosphere is pleasure for a great deal of tourists.

5. Friendly people

Travel in Vietnam you can see many people with smile. Vietnamese people often smile and say “hello” with strange others, especially foreign tourists. This is local people’s style, not ingratiating. Some foreigners will feel strange and confused, but just feel free about that.    
Maybe, before coming to Vietnam, you heard or read about some not good information. But sadly, the people said or wrote that just know about the business side of locals, who are simply trying to make a living. When you recognize that it's just local-tourist paradigm and have open mind with others, you can have a different experience. Make an effort to communicate with people in front of you, listen to inspiring stories, smile to the school children who often say “hello” to you and meet the nice and friendly people from different places. At the moment you truly connect to locals, you know that you are enjoying the special trip.
