Hi Thu,

Thanks for the recommendations, those are great! I think the guesthouse where I stayed sadly shut down. At the time (back in 2014), it was run by a very elderly woman. We absolutely loved Hue, though it rained a lot when we were visiting. I’d love to go back again.

Hi Anna – When we first flew to Vietnam, we travelled with STA Travel and were able to get a young person’s discount because we were under 24 at the time. Now, we mostly use Skyscanner to search for flights and set up flight price tracking. We also tend to visit countries, including Vietnam, in low season when flights are cheaper. Flights also tend to be cheaper mid-week as well.

Cen You tell me something about fly there. They quiet expensive.what is the best way to find it cheaper? Whit advance? Or any airlines?

We are heading to Vietnam in a few weeks thanks so much for your travel budget. However, we have cheated and booked flights for our destinations and not the sleeper bus. (cheats) We have skimmed on budget accom though.

Hi Chirag,

How exciting, hope you have a great adventure! Your time is short, and what you do would really depend on what interests you most and where you’re flying into.

Hi Ashlee. You could definitely do better on your own, but I think it depends on how much you want to organise. Vietnam is very cheap to travel and if you enjoy doing it DIY, then I’d recommend it. I would do some research before going with such a high tour price though.
