Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Here are direct answers to the most common questions Keralites have when planning a trip to Vietnam.
Flying from Kerala to Vietnam is manageable, but do not assume a nonstop Kochi–Ho Chi Minh City service is operating. Current September 2026 public schedules do not show a published COK–SGN nonstop, so compare the live one-stop options from Kochi, Trivandrum, or Calicut for your exact dates:
  • IndiGo & VietJet Air (via Bangkok)
  • Malindo Air & AirAsia (via Kuala Lumpur)
  • Singapore Airlines (via Singapore)
With a layover, total travel time is typically between 7 to 12 hours. Booking 2-3 months in advance is advised to secure the best fares.
Yes. Indian passport holders need a valid Vietnam visa for most trips. For ordinary tourism, the Vietnam eVisa is usually the simplest route and should be applied for through the official government portal before travel.
  • Validity: An eVisa may be issued for up to 90 days.
  • Entry type: Single or multiple entry, depending on the approved eVisa.
  • Fee and documents: Use the current requirements and fee shown on the official government portal.
Check the exact validity dates and permitted number of entries printed on the approved eVisa before departure.
The best time to travel depends on which parts of Vietnam you plan to visit, as the country has diverse regional climates.
  • North Vietnam (Hanoi, Ha Long Bay): October to April offers cool, dry weather, perfect for sightseeing and cruising.
  • Central Vietnam (Da Nang, Hoi An): February to July is ideal, with pleasant temperatures and sunny skies for beach activities.
  • South Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City, Mekong Delta): The dry season from December to April provides warm and comfortable conditions for exploration.
READ MORE: Central & South Vietnam 5D4N with Beach holiday in Phu QuocFor an overall trip covering all three regions, the period from December to March offers the most pleasant weather across the country.
Vietnam’s transport network is efficient and affordable. Here are the best options:
  • Domestic Flights: The fastest way to travel long distances (e.g., from Hanoi to HCMC).
  • Trains: A scenic way to travel, especially the overnight route between Hanoi and Da Nang.
  • Buses: A budget-friendly choice for shorter intercity journeys.
  • Ride-Sharing Apps: Grab (Vietnam’s Uber) is the most reliable and convenient option for city travel.
Yes, finding familiar food is quite easy. While you should explore the local Vietnamese cuisine, major cities have numerous Indian restaurants catering to the tastes of travellers from Kerala. Many offer South Indian dishes.
  • In Hanoi: Namaste Hanoi, Dalcheeni
  • In Ho Chi Minh City: Baba’s Kitchen, Benaras Indian Restaurant
  • In Da Nang: Family Indian Restaurant, Mumtaz Indian Restaurant
While specific Kerala-style food might be uncommon, the package tours offered by VietnamStory often include meals at certified Indian restaurants to ensure a comfortable dining experience.
Travellers from Kerala often appreciate destinations rich in natural beauty and culture. The top recommended places are:
  • Hanoi: For its historic temples, French colonial architecture, and vibrant Old Quarter.
  • Ha Long Bay: For its stunning limestone karsts and serene overnight cruises.
  • Hoi An: For its charming, lantern-lit ancient town and peaceful atmosphere.
  • Ho Chi Minh City: For its bustling energy and significant historical sites.
  • Ninh Binh: A must-visit for nature lovers, often called “Ha Long Bay on land” for its riverine landscapes.
Vietnam is a paradise for budget-friendly shopping. Key spots include:
  • Ben Thanh Market (Ho Chi Minh City): Excellent for handicrafts, souvenirs, and local snacks.
  • Hanoi Old Quarter: The best place for authentic silk products, ceramics, and lacquerware.
  • Hoi An: World-famous for its tailors who can create high-quality custom-made tailored suits & dresses in 24-48 hours.
Don’t forget to buy aromatic Vietnamese coffee. Bargaining is expected in markets, an experience similar to shopping on Jew Street in Kochi.
Vietnam is remarkably affordable, with daily expenses often being cheaper than Kerala. A well-planned 7-day trip typically costs between ₹50,000 and ₹80,000 per person. To put it in perspective:
  • Budget Meals: ₹200–₹500 per person.
  • Mid-range Hotels: ₹2,000–₹5,000 per night.
  • Street Food: A delicious dish can cost as little as ₹100–₹250.
Unlike Kerala’s consistent tropical climate, Vietnam has three distinct climates:
  • North Vietnam: Experiences four seasons with cool winters (similar to Ooty) and hot summers.
  • Central Vietnam: Mostly warm and dry, making it ideal for beach holidays.
  • South Vietnam: Has a hot and humid climate year-round, very similar to Kerala’s summer.
It is essential to pack for the specific regions included in your tour.
Packing smart is crucial for a comfortable trip. Here is a checklist of essentials:
  • ✅ Light cotton clothes suitable for humid weather.
  • ✅ Comfortable walking shoes for sightseeing.
  • ✅ A raincoat or umbrella, especially if travelling during the monsoon months.
  • ✅ A universal travel adapter (Vietnam uses plug types A, C, and D).
  • ✅ A basic first-aid kit with any personal medications.
  • ✅ Ready-to-eat meals or spices if you have specific dietary preferences.
Downloading an offline translation app is also a good idea for communicating in more rural areas.

Aussies in Vietnam this is our 5th TAD adventure. When booking you know where you are going but from experience we know it’s the Tour Leader that will make or break the trip. Tom greeted us and started with setting up a What’s App, a great idea, it is more than just helpful, it brings the team together, sharing & caring. it didn’t take long for everyone to jump onboard adding info, asking questions and adding /sharing photos. Tom sorted our rooms, handed out our keys, had Water everyday, paid ahead for entry to excursion destinations, organised for laundry etc which certainly ment less headaches for everyone ( upgrade) Organising the bus to save walking or taxi/uber ride (upgrade) With Tom’s wide smile, warm personality & good English we knew we were in good hands, always happy to help out and deal with our issues (they happen) As a tour leader we rate him AAA. If every tour guide followed his lead they would be a winner for their company & everyone taking their tour Thank you Tom for making our trip so enjoyable and stress free Sharon & Matt 🙏🫶

Great experience 5 Stars – Excellent Tours and Wonderful Guides! We had an absolutely fantastic experience during our recent visit to Hanoi, Vietnam! We booked two private tours, and both exceeded our expectations. A very special thank you to our wonderful tour guides, Hung and Cathy, who made our time in Vietnam truly memorable. Both were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and passionate about sharing the history, culture, and beauty of their country. Everything was exceptionally well organized, and the attention to detail throughout both tours was outstanding. Our guides went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable, enjoying themselves, and getting the most out of each experience. We especially appreciated their warm hospitality, flexibility, and willingness to answer all our questions. Their enthusiasm and personal touches made the tours even more enjoyable. Vietnam is a beautiful country with amazing people, and Hung and Cathy were wonderful ambassadors for it. We cannot thank the entire team enough for making our visit so special. We highly recommend their services to anyone visiting Vietnam and would absolutely book with them again! Thank you, Hung and Cathy, for the wonderful memories and exceptional hospitality!

A Wonderful and Memorable Vietnam Trip! 🇻🇳 Thanks to Nina We had a wonderful time exploring Vietnam, and the entire trip was smooth and well organised. Staying in Hanoi’s Old Quarter was a great experience, and we really enjoyed exploring the beautiful landscapes of Ninh Binh and taking the boat ride through Trang An. The highlight of our trip was the overnight cruise in Ha Long Bay. The stunning scenery, peaceful overnight stay, and morning kayaking made it a truly memorable experience. The limousine transfers were also comfortable and hassle-free throughout the trip. A special thanks to Nina for helping customise our itinerary and patiently answering all my questions from day one. Her support and guidance made the planning process much easier and gave us confidence before the trip. Overall, everything went smoothly, and we returned home with lots of beautiful memories. Thanks to Nina and the entire team for making our Vietnam trip such a wonderful experience. Highly recommended. 😊❤️

An Excellent Guide – Thank You, Hai Nguyen! An Excellent Guide – Thank You, Hai Nguyen! Hai Nguyen made our Vietnam trip truly memorable! He was punctual, friendly, patient, and incredibly helpful throughout our time with him. He explained everything so well that we could appreciate not just the places we visited, but also the culture and stories behind them. What touched me most was his willingness to go the extra mile. At Mua Cave, he patiently helped me climb the steps and encouraged me along the way. He also helped us take lovely photographs, assisted us with shopping, and took us to a place selling beautiful bamboo products. His suggestions to visit the night market and take an evening walk around the lake added some wonderful experiences to our trip that we might otherwise have missed. Hai was always considerate, and attentive to our needs. His warmth and genuine helpfulness made us feel comfortable and well looked after. It is these little gestures and personal touches that make a trip memorable, and Hai certainly made a difference to ours. Thank you, Hai, for your kindness, patience, and for helping us create such lovely memories in Vietnam. We are so glad we had you as our guide and would wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone visiting Vietnam. You made our trip extra special!
