What to expect from a mystery holiday in Vietnam
A whole generation associates beguiling Vietnam with the war that covered TV screens and newspaper print until the 1970s – and has formed the backdrop of many films since. And though this decades-long war has affected society in many ways, it’s time to see beyond this troubled time to what Vietnam offers travellers today.
Many first time visitors to the country are blown away by the incredible natural sights they come across, whether that’s the beaches of Phu Quoc and flooded paddy fields of Sapa or the limestone formations that have made Ha Long Bay a well-known name.
Vietnam’s food scene is another incredible reason to visit the country. Pho may need no introduction, but the cuisine here spans everything from baguettes called banh mi developed during the French colonial period to bun cha – grilled pork.
Good to know before you go to vietnam
Dong. Not just the sound of the temple bells, but also the local currency. You can often obtain dong from exchange bureaus before you leave home, but it’s also very easy to obtain on arrival. That said, you’ll also want some US dollars, which is how many tourist-facing businesses like to get paid.
The Vietnamese live on their phones, and Wi-Fi isn’t hard to find, making the process of booking tours, checking out options for the next day’s travel and making friends at home jealous with your photos all the easier.
Vietnam’s laidback nature means that agreed timings are often more variable than they would be back home. However, if you’ve agreed to meet someone or you’ve booked a pickup, they will – almost always – turn up eventually!
