Vietnam is the fastest-growing country in Southeast Asia and the tourism sector benefits enormously.

Today, traveling in Vietnam is easy and convenient, but exploring all the sites of this 1650-km-long country will take you a few months!

Phu Quoc, the pearl island of Vietnam, the Mekong Delta, and the bustling Ho Chi Minh City together with quirky Da Lat, sandy Mui Ne, and weirdly Russian Nha Trang make up South Vietnam.

Central Vietnam offers ancient My Son, quaint Hoi An, and fire-breathing Dragon Bridges in Da Nang.

North Vietnam is my favorite with its foggy Sapa, remote Ha Giang, Ha Long Bay, its land alternative Van Long, and of course the Paris of the East: Hanoi!

Wow! So much to visit! Explore my guides and moments below and book that ticket to Vietnam now!
