Vietnam stretches over 1,600 kilometers from north to south, which means its climate varies by region. Generally, the best time to visit is from November to April, when the weather is dry and temperatures are comfortably mild across most parts of the country. This period offers ideal conditions for exploring cities, beaches, and cultural landmarks alike.
If you're heading to the central region — including destinations like Hoi An, Danang, and Hue — the months from March to August are also excellent. You’ll enjoy sunny weather, fewer tourists, and often better hotel rates during this time.
