Vietnam itineraries by trip length
Last updated . Transport, entry and booking details can change. Check the named official sources before travel.
Vietnam's long shape makes a one week highlights tour mostly an airport tour. This first route stays in the north and gives Hanoi, Ninh Binh and the coast enough time to be distinct.
Can you see Vietnam in one week?
7 days can cover 1 region of Vietnam well, but they cannot cover both the north and south without losing days to flights and transfers.
This route chooses the north. A southern week should instead use Ho Chi Minh City, the Mekong Delta and one coastal stop.

Why this page exists. Every RoamWeek page has to say something true of it and false of its siblings. For Vietnam that is the question of how long to stay, which the duration pages below answer one length at a time.
