Best time to visit Vietnam
Vietnam works year-round, but the sweet spot depends on where you go. In the north (Hanoi, Halong Bay), October to April brings pleasant temperatures and less rain. In the south (Ho Chi Minh, Mekong), the dry season runs November to April. Skip the northern summer months, heat and humidity are brutal. November and December are perfect if you want mild weather across the entire country.
What to do when you arrive in Hanoi
Hanoi deserves at least 3 days: wander the Old Quarter, visit the Temple of Literature, climb Turtle Tower for views of Hoan Kiem Lake, and eat street food in the 36 Streets district. From here it's easy to reach Halong Bay (UNESCO, essential), Ninh Binh or catch an overnight bus south. Noi Bai International Airport is 30 km from the centre; taxis, buses and trains connect smoothly to the city.
