Practical information before considering a Vietnam Vacation Packages

This narrow and elongated “S” country occupies the eastern coast of the Indochina peninsula, on the South China Sea and the Gulf of Tonkin. It shares borders with China, Laos and Cambodia.

Climate and When to travel?

Vietnam is located in the area with the monsoon climate and broadly speaking, a tropical climate with high temperatures and abundant rainfall. However, given the geographical length of the country (1,650 km from north to south), and the climatic conditions are vary in the same time from one region to another.

North: the summer lasts from May to October, with high temperatures, high humidity and heavy downpours; winter, from December to March, recorded temperatures of 10 ° C to 15 ° C.

Center: the coastal area of Nha Trang enjoys good weather and sunshine all year round, except in November and December when heavy rains are recorded. Keep in mind that the area between Hue, Hoi An and Da Nang is subject to typhoons, especially from August to October.

South: always hot, short but intense rainfall recorded between May and October; Dry, sunny and very humid weather from November to April, but very comfortable compare to other part of the country to spend a longer vacation in south.

If you are taking a holiday to Vietnam during the months of March, April, May, October and November are especially recommended for a full trip to visit the country. And it is best to avoid on your vacation in Vietnam dates in late January and early February when the Lunar New Year or Tet is celebrated and almost all hotels, trains and other related tourism services are fully booked, by the way, if you do it , then book your Vietnam packages tours.

Passport and visa: Spanish citizens required a valid visa and passport to travel to Vietnam; the passport must be valid for at least six months from the date of departure. However, from the July of the 2015, the immigration department of Vietnam has granted 15 days free visa for Spanish passport holders and it is applicable upon any borders to Vietnam, but, if you vacationing for more than the given visa, then you must apply for a longer visa of 30 days beforehand. You can receive a free one month visa if you are traveling to Vietnam for more than 15 days through any of Vietnam packages tours

Currency and credit card matters: The currency is the Vietnam Dong (VND). Credit cards such as Visa and Mastercard are increasingly accepted in hotels, restaurants and department stores, especially in big cities such as Hanoi, Nha Trang and Ho Chi Minh City. A wide network of ATMs are operating 24 hours in the centers of smaller town as well as Airports and large hotels, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City representing several branches of major international banks such as ANZ and HSBC. The US dollar and the euro are accepted in many shops and restaurants as well, but I recommend changing your local currency into Vietnamese Dong.

Safety: Vietnam is one of the safest tourist destinations in the world. Crimes against the tourists are almost very rare.

Northern Vietnam tourist Guide

Hanoi: The capital of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the cultural soul of the country is still retains some of the charm of the French colonial era in its green areas and vast shady boulevards.
