1. Plan Your Trip Around the Weather
Vietnam’s climate changes dramatically from north to south. If you’re heading north, pack a light jacket for winter months (Dec–Feb). For the south, expect sunshine and tropical heat almost year-round.

2. Keep a Reusable Water Bottle
Stay hydrated while reducing plastic waste. Many hotels and cafés now offer refill stations, it’s good for you and the planet.

3. Be Aware of Scams and Overpricing
Tourist areas sometimes have higher prices. Always check menus, agree on taxi fares beforehand, or use apps like Grab for transparent pricing.

4. Carry Tissues or Wet Wipes
You’ll thank yourself later, not every public restroom has paper available, especially in rural areas or small eateries.

5. Take It Slow and Enjoy the Details
Don’t rush from city to city. Some of the most memorable experiences come from slowing down, sipping coffee on a sidewalk, chatting with locals, or watching daily life unfold.

🌿 Bonus Tip:
The best travel memories often come from unplanned moments, keep your schedule flexible and your heart open.
