FAQ
Our answers to your questions

Do I need a visa for 10 days in Vietnam?

It all depends on your nationality. For example, citizens of the United Kingdom and Ireland benefit from a visa exemption of up to 45 days.

Other English-speaking countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are not part of this exemption scheme. Travelers from these countries must apply for an e-visa through the official Vietnamese government portal. The e-visa is valid for 90 days without the need to leave the country, and there is also a multiple-entry option for the same duration.

Is it possible to travel from North to South Vietnam in 10 days?

It is absolutely possible, and we offer it through our “Vietnam Highlights in 10 Days” tour. This itinerary allows you to visit all the must-see sites: Hanoi, Halong Bay, Ninh Binh, Hue, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh City, and the Mekong Delta. Of course, the program is intensive, including an overnight train from Ninh Binh to Hue and a flight from Da Nang to Ho Chi Minh City.

How much does a 10-day trip to Vietnam cost?

For a private tour including private transport and English-speaking guides, the price will depend on the number of travelers. If you are 2 people, the budget ranges from 100 to 150 euros per day for quality services with 3-star hotels. Of course, the more luxurious the hotels, the higher the price will be.

The budget can also be reduced depending on the type of transport. For example, we can book tourist buses to Halong or Ninh Binh, and the same applies for central Vietnam. Our agency will adapt to your budget! Please describe your wishes using this form, and we will provide you with a detailed quote.
