This gorgeous, bucolic village is home to stunning limestone karsts, friendly people and captivating scenery, but it is best known for being the location of the Hang Son Doong, the world&#8217;s largest cave. Besides Son Doong, Phong Nha has a collection of other spectacular caves that are accessible to anyone with an adventurous soul. Of everywhere we travelled in the country, Phong Nha is by far the best place.<\/p>\n<p>Get out of the cities. Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang are great and deserve some time to visit, but the beauty of Vietnam lies out in the countryside. The further off-the-beaten-path you get, the more you&#8217;ll fall in love with the country. &#8211;\u00a0Jarryd and Alesha, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadasaurus.com\/\">Nomadsaurus<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>How much time do I need in Vietnam?<\/h3>\n<p>You should spend at least two weeks in Vietnam to enjoy the main sights, but if you also want to go more off the beaten path, three weeks would be ideal.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I get around Vietnam?<\/h3>\n<p>Vietnam is a long, narrow country so travelling internally means navigating a few of the local transport options. For any longer distances, and if you&#8217;re short on time the best transport option would be to fly. There are a number of safe, reputable airlines that operate in Vietnam.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for cheaper travel option, buses are a good way of getting from A to B but are often very busy and not overly comfortable. Some sleeper buses can be surprisingly comfortable and save you a night&#8217;s accommodation but just depends on your comfort levels. As for trains, especially the Reunification Express, is much more comfortable and reliable as a transport option but slightly more expensive.<\/p>\n<p>Within larger cities, take a cyclo or motorbike taxi to get around. Spending time on the water is also a must-do in Vietnam, especially to see Ha Long Bay and travel along the Mekong River.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10536\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10536\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10536 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rene-deanda-417029-min.jpg\" alt=\"Should I visit Vietnam \" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rene-deanda-417029-min.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rene-deanda-417029-min-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rene-deanda-417029-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/rene-deanda-417029-min-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1080px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1080\/720;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10536\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Motorbikes are popular in Vietnam<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>What do I need to know before I go?<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Make sure you know what the visa requirements are to enter for your nationality, as it can often involve applying for a letter, filling out a form and taking passport photos with you and having to pay a fee on arrival for the visa.<\/li>\n<li>Depending on where you are planning to travel, book a doctor&#8217;s appointment 6-8 weeks before your departure to discuss if you need any vaccinations.<\/li>\n<li>Learn a few key Vietnamese phrases.<\/li>\n<li>If you plan to visit temples, make sure you have layers or clothing that will cover your shoulders and legs out of respect.<\/li>\n<li>Worried about staying in contact with people at home or showing off your travels on Instagram?

This city is full of hundreds upon hundreds of tailors and is known as the place to go in the country for getting tailored clothes. Going in for sizing, adjustments, and even more adjustments over a period of several days was, shall we say, an experience and the suit has been well worn in the many years since coming home!<\/p>\n<p>Eat all the things. Vietnam has some of the best food in the world, and while you may not always know what you&#8217;re eating, it is almost certainly going to be delicious. If there is a crowd of people and food is involved, buy one (or three).\u00a0 &#8211; Jeremy &amp; Angie, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livingthedreamrtw.com\">Living the Dream<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3><strong>Hanoi<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The capital of Vietnam is ideal for exploring the country&#8217;s history, from ancient temples and pagodas to colonial buildings and intriguing museums. Take it all in and explore the pagodas, the traces of French-Chinese occupation and navigate your way through the winding streets. If time allows, this is the perfect city to enjoy a cyclo ride.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In Vietnam, I was fortunate enough to join a bicycle tour that rode partly from Hanoi all the way to Saigon. For me the highlight was riding through tiny villages along the way and meeting locals and eating local foods. I loved seeing the happy, smiling kids who came out to wave at us as we passed. My favorite areas in Vietnam are SaPa and Dalat \u2014 a bit off the beaten path and both beautiful!<\/p>\n<p>The main cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh can be intimidating, loud and chaotic. My biggest advice is to get used to people trying to sell you things (bananas, motorbike rides, etc) on the street and just stay friendly yet firm. It can get annoying but it doesn\u2019t pay to be rude. A friendly \u201cNo Thank you!\u201d can go a long way, especially when you learn to say it in Vietnamese! &#8211; Lisa, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.llworldtour.com\/\">LLWorldTour<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3><strong>Hue<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Hue is fascinating as the seat of the Nguyen Dynasty emperors and the national capital from 1802 to 1945.
