Vietnam Tour Packages

• Cost Savings

  Booking everything from airline tickets to hotels, transportation, or guides can be a significant challenge for a foreign tourist. You may not be familiar with the prices of these services, and the retail price is often higher than the wholesale price offered by tour operators in Vietnam. This means you may also incur additional expenses. However, if you opt for a Vietnam package tour with us that includes everything, the overall cost will be lower.

• No Headaches, Save Time

  You don't have to worry about how and where to book services; all services will be provided according to the standards you choose. If you have any concerns or doubts about the service quality, simply communicate with our travel experts, and your concerns will be addressed.

• Complete Tour

  Even if you have a list of destinations in mind, it can be challenging to visit all of them. The reason is that you have to plan the logistics of moving between destinations effectively, or else it may increase the cost or result in insufficient time. A Vietnam tour package designed by our travel consultant will address this issue, ensuring you get the best value for your money.

Local Money & Expense

• Where can I find current exchange rates for Vietnamese money?

  Current dong exchange rates are available on the internet. Please try one of the links (www.xe.com, www.vietcombank.com.vn). Note: You can not buy or exchange dong outside Vietnam.

• Can I get cash on my credit card in Vietnam?

  Cash advances on credit cards are available at the central Vietcombank in Hanoi, HCMC and other major cities, for which you will be charged around 4%. Hanoi and HCMC also boast 24hr ATMs where you can withdraw cash on MasterCard, Visa and other cards in the Cirrus/Plus networks. In Hanoi, go to the ANZ Bank beside Hoan Kiem Lake; in HCMC both ANZ Bank and HKSB have ATMs.

• Is it better to use American dollars or Vietnamese dong for daily expenses in Vietnam?

  For everyday expenses, I recommend carrying a mix of US$ cash and dong. For larger items (hotel bills, train tickets, etc.) or when the exchange rate works in your favour, use dollars. For cyclos, local food stalls and small purchases, it's best to use dong. In either case, make sure you always have a stock of small notes so that you don't have to worry about change.

• Tipping in Vietnam

  Suggestions for the sum

  - For a trekking guide in North Vietnam or cultural guide: USD 10 / day
  - For a driver: USD 5 / day
  - For a carrier: USD 5 / day

  These people are at your disposal throughout your trip and they also expect you to doing the best for your satisfaction. The working timing is huge, from 06:00 am to 23:00 at night, sometimes more. These guides leave home for a week, 15 days or 3 weeks depending on the tour. For private tours in Vietnam (2 to 4 people per group) the guide can receive at least 10 USD / day based on customer satisfaction.

  In restaurants and bars maybe leave 5 – 10% tip if you have received good service. Remember that 20,000 Dong is less than US$1. Not much for you but maybe a whole meal for the staff member that served you. If you have spent 400,000 Dong (around US$18) for a nice meal then 40,000 Vietnamese Dong (10%) is not alot more to give as a tip.

  One place that people don’t even think about tipping are the hotel staff that you probably never see – the housekeeping service staff that come to clean your room. I generally leave 10,000 – 20,000 Vietnam Dong (~1usd) in the bathroom with a note saying thank you to the staff so they know it is a tip.
