Sapa, Halong Bay, Bana Hills.

  What would be your advice / experience sharing for other aspirant travellers to Vietnam?

 We would like to advice that should plan Vietnam trip at least for 10 Nights or more to explore complete Vietnam. Sapa, Halong Bay, Phong Nha national park, Danang & Bana hills are the must visit attractions if you want to explore Vietnam in great detail. So that way one can visit all these places. Also, travellers should carry dry snacks or ready to make food items to avoid food difficulties or gastronomical shocks!
