Activities in Vietnam blend adventure with educational experiences. They’re also a great way to make sure you don’t miss anything as you venture into a new city or a new environment.

Frequently asked questions

Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Reach out to ourlocal experts.

What Adventure Activities Are There In Vietnam?

Vietnam’s long coastline and mountainous, jungle interior are ripe for adventure. Popular activities include rock-climbing, kayaking, snorkeling, caving and trekking.

The best spots for boating tours are in Halong Bay, the Cham Islands, and Mui Ne. For snorkeling, head to Phu Quoc Island’s lovely beaches or visit the Cham Islands to see the rainbow reef that grows around this archipelago.

Summit Vietnam’s tallest mountain on an overnight trek to Mount Fansipan, right outside of Sapa. If you are heading to Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park, you can hike to some of the area’s gorgeous caves. There are tours that allow you to trek to the park’s crown jewel, the enormous Son Doong Cave, as well as other off-the-beaten path caves. There is incredible rock-climbing in both Halong Bay and Mai Chau.

I Haven't Tried Some of These Activities in Vietnam. Is That A Problem?

Almost every adventure activity in Vietnam has difficulty levels for all types of travelers. Whether you are a seasoned rock-climber or a climbing novice, you’ll find a provider that will suit your experience. Kayaking, snorkelling and trekking activities across Vietnam are perfect for beginners and experts alike, and it simply depends on your fitness level how much you want to do.

In Halong Bay and Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park there are rock faces and caves to suit every level and guides will give plenty of safety information and lessons to help you tackle the adventure at hand.

What Should I Wear or Bring to a National Park in Vietnam?

Light layers in breathable materials are your best bet for most national parks in Vietnam. Layers help combat bites from bugs and cooler winds at the top of mountains. Breathable clothing helps with the heat and humidity. Always bring more water than you expect to need, especially when hiking. If you tend to get hungry quickly, snacks are a good idea as restaurants are usually located near park entrances. Make sure to bring mosquito spray, sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses.

What are the Top Activities in Vietnam?

Vietnam's top activities appeal to history buffs, adventurers, and fun-loving sightseers. Make sure to budget enough time for tours and activities in your chosen destinations. One of the top highlights of a trip to Vietnam is a cruise around UNESCO World Heritage site Halong Bay. Take a more traditional boating tour in a long boat along the Mekong Delta.

Trek the mountains of northern Vietnam and connect with local people in the remote villages of Sapa and Mai Chau. Get to know Vietnam’s many minorities while you experience the country’s most incredible scenery.

Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi are the top destinations for historical and architecture tours. See French colonial buildings in Ho Chi Minh City, and then visit museums and the Cu Chi Tunnels to learn about the horrors of the Vietnam War. Hanoi has some of the country’s oldest temples and centers for learning.

Cooking classes are one of the best ways to sample a variety of dishes. Learn to cook delicious Vietnamese food in Hanoi, Hue, Hoi An, and Ho Chi Minh City.
