Traveling in Southern Vietnam
In recent times, Southern Vietnam has become one of the most relaxing vacation destinations in Asia. Besides the French Colonial remnants and the beautiful beaches nearby, it is a perfect blend of modern and traditional scenes.
While most people opt for Northern Vietnam, South Vietnam has just as much to offer as the other regions. If you consider exploring this little heaven on Earth, it could be the best decision you will ever make. Read on to get a quick glimpse of what traveling in Southern Vietnam is like!
The Best time to travel
Southern Vietnam is humid most of the year, and it receives frequent and heavy downpour during the monsoons. While the winters are bearably cold, Spring and winter are the peak seasons in this region.
The southern region is functional throughout the year, but we recommend visiting between November to April to make the most of your trip.
Also, prep yourself to learn how to ride a two-wheeler or at least float on water. Since you will be riding a lot and be near water bodies, you will want to test the waters wherever you go.
