There’s never been a better time to choose Vietnam as your holiday destination. With a strong commitment to safety and fast response to health crises, Vietnam is a place you can travel with peace of mind. The country’s untrammeled landscapes and seascapes are bursting with beautiful views you can have all to yourself. Even if it’s been a while, you can be sure Vietnam’s people are as friendly as ever, its food is as delicious as ever, its culture is as alluring as ever — and all of it is waiting for you.

All Vietnam destinations are open. No self-isolation is required.

While Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and the other major centers are intriguing enough, it’s Vietnam’s striking landscape that most impresses. Rugged mountains hug the west, bordering Cambodia and Laos; to the east lies the South China Sea – or the East Sea, as the Vietnamese call it.

To the north and south, the land fantails out into the splendid deltas of the Red River and the Mekong, and it’s in these regions that you’ll encounter the paddy fields, dragonflies, buffaloes, and conical-hatted farmers that constitute the classic images of Vietnam.

As for wildlife, the discovery in recent years of several previously unknown species of plants, birds and animals showcases the wealth of Vietnam’s biodiversity. This makes the improving access to the country’s national parks all the more gratifying for travelers wanting to visit Vietnam.
