Overview

Important Notes Before Travelling

  • • The best time to visit Ho Chi Minh City is from December to April, when the weather is dry and pleasant. The rainy season lasts from May to November and can cause flooding and traffic jams.

  • • The currency used in Vietnam is the Vietnamese dong (VND). One US dollar is equivalent to about 23,000 VND. Credit cards are widely accepted in hotels and restaurants, but cash is preferred in markets and street stalls.
