bkk - vietnam
 
I am looking to go from Thailand to Vietnam. I dont know where we should go in Vientnam. My husband and I have three small children under the ages of 5 traveling with us. I would like to spend a couple of weeks in Vietnam but have no idea where to go and how to get there from BKK.

I would really appreciate any imput and direction on this.

Thank you.

The normal way is to fly.

BKK-Ho Chi Minh City both Thai and Vietnam Airlines each have 2 flights per day plus Air France flies 4 x per week and Lufthansa 3 x per week, flight times about 1 hr 30 mins

BKK-Hanoi Thai has 2 glights per day and Vietnam Airlines either 1 or 2 flights per day, plus Air France 3 x per week, flying time about 1 hr 40 mins

BKK- Danang 3 flights per week with PB Air, fllying time about 1hr 30 mins.

Where to visit in Vietnam depends really in what your interests are, tI am sure many will give you ideas if you advise what types of interest you have and places you would like to visit etc.

I suggest you to visit as follow:
- Hanoi, Water Puppet show
- Ha Long -Cat Ba
- Sa Pa
- Fly to Hue visit Hue-Hoi An-Da Nang
- from Danang to Nha Trang flying
- Phan Thiet
- HCMC-Cu Chi
- Mekong Delta
You need at least 10 day to visit, these are the highlight of Vietnam. follow this tour you have to spend about 1,000 USD per person. If you need information more about vietnam or need arrange something, write to me.

What month are you planning to go to Vietnam? One of the first things to check is the weather for the month and places you plan to travel.

December is a good month to visit Bangkok and Vietnam.
