Spending 2 weeks in Vietnam is an ideal amount of time to experience the country's diverse attractions and culture. During this period, you can explore the bustling streets of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, marvel at the natural beauty of Halong Bay, and relax on the stunning beaches of Da Nang. Additionally, you can choose to focus your 2-week itinerary on either the northern, central, or southern regions of Vietnam to fully immerse yourself in the unique experiences each area offers. Whether it's the mountainous landscapes and ethnic cultures of the north, the historical sites of the central region, or the vibrant Mekong Delta in the south, two weeks provide ample opportunity to appreciate the essence of Vietnam.
The dry season from mid-October to April is ideal for visiting Cambodia due to its mild weather, clear blue skies, and minimal rainfall. From May to September, although it is the rainy season, the rain typically lasts only one or two hours per day. The rest of the day is sunny, making sightseeing still possible.
For tourists from the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and most EU countries:
