1. Travel to Vietnam by air

The most convenient and easiest way to come to Vietnam is via plane. Noi Bai Airport in Hanoi and Tan Son Nhat Airport in Ho Chi Minh City are the two biggest international airports in Vietnam.  A third airport, Da Nang Airport, in Da Nang, contains a smaller number of international flights.  You can choose one of the airlines to book the ticket to get to Noi Bai, Tan Son Nhat, and Da Nang airports, but local agents are still worth a try. If you haven't already booked the ticket, give your request to Best Price Vietnam.

2. Travel to Vietnam by road
