You should, from my humble point of view, talk about the beauty of Vietnam and the kindness of Vietnamese people. Zakaria, from Montreal, Canada. God bless you Zakaria

    7 ай бұрын

    I am glad you found this helpful. 🤗 During Tet time: - If you are here before the New Year's Eve: You can visit the flower and local markets, and be ready for street photography opportunities as there will be lots of local activities going on and it will be colorful at the market. - New Year's Eve: watch fireworks - During the first days of Tet (Lunar New Year): it's a wonderful occasion to experience the most important festival of Vietnam. The only downsides are not many local businesses will be open during Tet (or at least on the first day of Tet), so I think for the best experience, it would be best to have a local vietnamese guide for one day or two (so the person can arrange everything for you and even show your the culture better ^_^). The second downsides are availability and prices-> Yes, You should definitely book a hotel room in advance for a better price and secure your place as people will be travelling a lot around that time too. - Staying in Hanoi or HalongBay: It depends on your priorities on budget. Being on a cruise is nice. I would spend 3 days and 2 nights max for a cruise in Halong Bay/ Lan Ha Bay ^^

    Thank you for your video it was very helpful! I am going to Vietnam soon and I will be bringing one large suitcase and one small carry on suitcase. A lot of people usually go backpacking and take minimal luggage. I am a bit worried about my suitcase as I am going from South to North and places in between. Should I also bring a backpack instead of a luggage or is it possible to travel Vietnam with two suitcases specially with transportation is that a good idea?

After I put in my kid's name/gender/date of birth, 2 photos...do I need another separate form for my child? Or the information included in the form for myself is sufficient. When I pay, I should pay $50, instead of $25? Thank you.

    With all due respect, please read til the end: On the recent Evisa, there’s no entry point on the visa - but there’s an entry point on the online application form. Did you and your group fill in the application yourself or have someone doing it for you guys? And which country are you from? And when did you visit Vietnam? To answer your question: Where do I guess this information regarding the entry point from? -> From my own experience: In 2023, My boyfriend had to apply for another evisa before. He had a valid evisa to enter Vietnam through danang airport but decided to enter Vietnam through a different point. ->I called the immigration officer, they told us to make a new evisa as it’s compulsory. -> Read my quick Google search with Vietnam Embassy in Norway here about the entry point mistake I have mentioned vietnamembassy-norway.org/visa-for-vietnam/e-visa/common-mistakes-in-application/ AND with all due respect, you and your friends might just be lucky before the immigration officer feel bad to ask you to leave the country and come back - or maybe something else… I don’t really know what happened in your case specifically. You might find this information not useful for you, but this will help to save others time and hassles at their entry gate to Vietnam and have a better trip in my home country. Best, Trinh
