Travel Off-Season
Photo: InternetIt is not an exaggeration to say that one of the largest expenses for traveling is the cost of getting to Vietnam. Fortunately, you can save money by planning your trip during the off-peak season. The relatively low season now extends from November to March. Many international airlines often increase ticket prices significantly around the Christmas holiday and during the peak summer travel months when demand is at its highest.
