FAQ

1. What should I know about the visa requirements for Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand trips?

Visa requirements for those countries vary by nationality. Thailand offers visa-free entry or visas on arrival for many travelers. Cambodia provides an e-Visa system and visas on arrival at major entry points. Vietnam typically requires a visa, which can be obtained through the e-Visa system or a visa on arrival. Check the latest visa requirements for each country and ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates.

2. What are some tips for dealing with language barriers during this adventure in Vietnam?

To deal with language barriers in Vietnam in 2 weeks, learn a few basic Vietnamese phrases, use translation apps like Google Translate when your guide isn't around, carry a phrasebook, and be patient and polite. Many young Vietnamese people and those working in tourism speak some English, so don't hesitate to ask for help.

3. What are the benefits of 3 weeks in Vietnam?

A 3-week journey in Vietnam offers several benefits:

  • Comprehensive Exploration: You can visit all the major cities, historical sites, and natural attractions without rushing.
  • Cultural Immersion: Spend more time in each destination to immerse yourself in local culture, traditions, and daily life.
  • Flexibility: With more time, you can include off-the-beaten-path locations and have a flexible schedule to relax and enjoy spontaneous adventures.
  • Varied Experiences: Enjoy a mix of urban experiences, rural landscapes, beach relaxation, and outdoor activities.
4. What is the best time of year to book Thailand and Vietnam journeys?

The best time to book those tours is during the dry season, which typically runs from November to April. During this period, both countries enjoy pleasant weather with less rainfall, making it ideal for sightseeing and outdoor activities. In Thailand, this is also the peak tourist season, especially in places like Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and the southern islands. In Vietnam, the weather is favorable for exploring the northern regions like Hanoi and Halong Bay, as well as the central and southern parts. Booking during this period ensures you have the best conditions to enjoy your tour.

5. Which airline operates domestic flights? What is the baggage allowance?

You will be flying with either Vietnam Airlines or Bamboo Airways, the two top-rated airlines in the country. We avoid using low-cost carriers to ensure a smooth and comfortable travel experience.

For baggage, you are allowed 7 to 12 kilos of hand luggage and 20 to 23 kilos of checked luggage, depending on the airline. Any excess baggage typically costs around 3 to 5 USD per extra kilo, payable directly at check-in.

6. When is the best time to hike in different regions of Vietnam?

At Kampá Tour, we recommend the following times for hiking in Vietnam based on our extensive experience:

  • North Vietnam: The best time to hike is in October, November, and December. The weather is cool and dry during these months, meaning the trails aren’t too muddy, and visibility is generally good.
  • Central Vietnam: We suggest hiking in the spring months of March, April, and May. It’s usually sunny but not too hot, and rainstorms tend to be brief.
  • South Vietnam: The south is hot all year, but there is some respite during the winter months of December and January, making this the best time to trek in this region.

These recommendations ensure you have a pleasant and enjoyable hiking experience across Vietnam.
