FAQ
1. What's the weather like across Vietnam?
Vietnam stretches long, so weather shifts a lot: cool winters in the north, hot/stormy centre, warm year-round in the south.
2. How safe is it to ride a scooter in Vietnam?
Scooters are everywhere, but traffic is chaotic. If you’re not confident, use GrabBike or taxis instead.
3. How reliable is the north-south train?
The Reunification Express is slow but scenic. Great if you’ve got time; flights are faster and often cheap.
4. What should I know about crossing the streets?
Walk slowly and confidently. Traffic flows around you – steady beats speedy.
5. Are overnight buses safe and comfortable?
They’re commonly used and safe, but comfort varies. Sleeper trains or short flights are nicer for long hops.
6. Is it easy to get vegetarian or vegan food in Vietnam?
Yes. Look for “chay” restaurants – lots of tofu dishes, veggie pho, and stir- fries.
