Prepare for the Weather
Bring light layers for the day and warmer clothes for early mornings and nights, especially in the cooler months. Rain gear is useful if you’re traveling during the rainy season (May–August).
Connectivity
Mobile signal can be weak in remote areas, so download offline maps and have your hotel address written down in Vietnamese just in case.
Cash is King
ATMs may be limited, especially in remote villages, so carry enough Vietnamese Dong (VND) for your trip. Most places don’t accept cards.
