@MountainExplorer8297 I’ve always wanted to visit the Mekong Delta, but I’m not sure which month would be the most ideal, any advice?
Mekong Delta, get ready for a hilarious ride! Don’t visit during the rainy season or you’ll be splashing around like a drenched clown. Come during the dry season (November to April) and enjoy the Delta’s wonders without looking like a soaked comedian. Share your thoughts on the best time to visit!
I get what you mean! Coming to the Mekong Delta during the dry season sounds like a real game-changer. I can almost picture myself cruising along the waterways without a worry in sight. Let’s pack our bags and get ready to soak up the sun!

I had no idea the weather in Vietnam varied so much throughout the year!
I visited Hoi An in the summer and it was definitely hot and humid. Wish I had known to go in the spring instead.
No way! That must’ve been super uncomfortable. Maybe next time I can help you figure out the best time to visit Hoi An to avoid the heat!
I love the northern areas even though I know people tend to be partial of central and southern places in Vietnam. I have only been up north once and it was my favorite trip.
I am not sure which area I am most partial to. I have been to each one at least once. I think overall, you get the best of Vietnam in the central zone though.
I didn’t know there were specific time frames like this that were ideal. I just always heard going anywhere in Vietnam, the best months are October through March.
I’ve always wanted to visit Hanoi, but now I know the best time to go.
You’re gonna adore Hanoi! I can’t wait to hear all about your trip. It’ll be marvelous!
