Vietnam Traveler Tips & FAQ

Essential guidance for planning trips around Vietnam's major festivals.

When is the best time to visit Sapa for golden terraced rice fields?

The golden harvest season in Sapa typically occurs once a year between late August and mid-September. By late September, local farmers harvest the crops. We recommend booking your Hanoi-to-Sapa sleeper train or bus at least 2-3 weeks in advance.

How far in advance should I book tickets during Tet (Lunar New Year)?

Tet is Vietnam’s biggest national holiday. Millions of domestic travelers travel home to reunite with families. Transport (trains, sleeper buses, and flights) sells out rapidly. Book your 12Go Asia tickets 45 to 60 days before Tet!

What is the best transport option for Ha Giang Loop?

The most popular route is taking an overnight cabin sleeper bus from Hanoi to Ha Giang town (about 6 hours), arriving early morning. From there, travelers rent motorbikes or hire Easy Rider drivers to tour the 3-4 day Ha Giang loop.
