Best time to take a trip to Vietnam
The best months to head to Vietnam include April, May, and October. These months are not part of the monsoon seasons, so you won't be covered with torrential rains when you go. From July to November, there are unpredictable typhoons, so this can be a dangerous time of year for visitors. The peak season is November to March and July and August. Avoid these months if you want to avoid crowds. Late January or early February is a great time to go for those who want to participate in the Vietnamese New Year, which is the largest festival on the Vietnam calendar.
