Vietnam is a country with a sharply contrasting climate, clearly divided into seasons. So choosing when to travel to Vietnam is not that difficult. In the summer, when Vietnam's low season arrives, it's a period of torrential tropical rainfall. The weather is such that you can't even think about any vacation.
So from late May to November is a time when it's almost pointless to fly to Vietnam, unless you're in the mood to fight the elements. But from November to April, when Vietnam is in high season, the weather becomes very favorable for a vacation. So winter is the best time to go to Vietnam for beach vacations and sightseeing.
tripmydream will help you choose when is the best time to vacation in Vietnam.
