Vietnam is a country best understood through its landscapes, people and everyday life.
From the mountains and rice terraces of the north to the historic cities of Central Vietnam and the waterways of the Mekong Delta, every region has its own character. Beyond Vietnam, neighbouring Cambodia, Laos and Thailand offer another layer of cultures, landscapes and experiences to discover.
Viettourist DMC was created to help international travel professionals turn this diversity into well-designed, seamless journeys for their clients.
As a Vietnam-based Destination Management Company (DMC), we combine local knowledge, destination expertise and a network of trusted partners to create tailor-made travel experiences across Vietnam and selected destinations in Southeast Asia.
Whether you are planning a private journey, a small-group tour, a cultural holiday, a family trip, a premium itinerary or a golf experience, we work with you to build a programme around the people who will actually travel it.
Our team is based in Vietnam, with a deep understanding of its regions, cultures, landscapes and the people who bring them to life. We work closely with local hotels, guides, transport providers and experience partners, allowing us to build journeys from genuine local knowledge and connections.
Viettourist DMC builds on the experience and local foundations of Viettourist JSC, an established Vietnamese travel company. Our DMC was created with a clear purpose: to connect international travel professionals with the destination we know best, providing the local expertise and ground services needed to create memorable journeys for their clients.
From the mountains of northern Vietnam to the beaches of the central coast and the waterways of the Mekong Delta, we believe the best journeys come from understanding what makes each place different and knowing how to bring those places together.
We know the places, the stories and the people that shape Vietnam. That local connection helps us create journeys that feel authentic & thoughtful.
For some, it is discovering a new culture and understanding the stories behind a place. For others, it is time in nature, great food, a beautiful beach, a round of golf or simply having the freedom to travel at their own pace.
That is why we do not believe in one-size-fits-all itineraries.
We work with our partners to shape journeys around their clients: their interests, expectations, pace and way of travelling. From private holidays and small groups to family adventures, cultural journeys, premium escapes and golf trips, every programme can be adapted to create the right experience.
Sometimes that means going beyond the familiar highlights. Sometimes it means slowing down, changing the pace or discovering a lesser-known place along the way.
For us, this is not simply an itinerary, but a journey that feels personal, connected and true to the people travelling it.
The right hotel in the right location. A guide who knows how to bring a place to life. A smooth transfer after a long flight. A carefully chosen experience that fits naturally into the day.
As a Vietnam DMC, we coordinate these details on the ground, bringing the different parts of a journey together so that your clients can simply enjoy the experience.
From airport transfers and private transportation to accommodation, guides, excursions, cruises and activities, we can manage the practical elements of your programme from arrival to departure.
For golf journeys, this also includes coordinating tee times, golf transfers and stays around selected courses, while leaving space to discover everything beyond the fairways.
Whether you need a complete ground-handling solution or support with specific parts of an itinerary, we adapt our role to what you and your clients need.
You dream of a journey. We help to create it.
Great travel experiences depend on people who know the destination and care about the details.
Our team brings together professionals working across sales, travel planning, operations and destination management, with different perspectives and areas of expertise. Together, we work closely with our international partners and local suppliers to turn travel ideas into journeys that work in practice.
Our experience is rooted in Vietnam. We understand the destinations, the practicalities of travelling between them and the importance of choosing the right people, places and experiences for each itinerary.
Our director brings more than 20 years of experience in tourism, providing the knowledge and perspective behind our approach to destination management. Around her, our team brings its own expertise, energy and understanding of today’s international travel market.
We also work across languages and cultures, helping us communicate with partners from different markets and understand the expectations of their clients.
What connects us is simple: we want to make it easier for our partners to create meaningful journeys in Vietnam and Southeast Asia.
Our team works from Vietnam and knows the destination beyond the standard itinerary. We combine local understanding with practical experience to help create journeys that make sense from arrival to departure.
Every partner and every client is different. We take the time to understand what you are looking for, adapt our proposals accordingly and work with you to shape the details of each journey.
Travel is constantly changing, and so are travellers’ expectations. We bring curiosity, new ideas and an open approach to creating journeys that feel relevant, personal and connected to today’s travellers.
We believe good travel should respect the places and people travellers encounter. We aim to work thoughtfully with local partners and create experiences that connect travellers with local communities, cultures and environments.
A journey can look perfect on paper, but it is the details that shape how it feels in reality. The choice of a hotel, the timing of a transfer, the knowledge of a guide or the decision to include a local experience can change the rhythm of an entire journey.
This is where local destination knowledge matters.
We take the time to understand how the different elements of an itinerary fit together, looking not only at what travellers will see, but also at how they will move, experience and connect with each destination. From choosing the right location for a hotel to finding an experience that suits a particular group, we pay attention to the details that can turn a good itinerary into a memorable journey. For our partners, this means having a local team that can look at the journey as a whole, while remaining flexible when plans need to change.
Because the difference is often found in the details you don’t see on the itinerary.
We create travel programmes that bring together destinations, experiences and practical details in a way that feels coherent. From private journeys to small groups, cultural travel and golf, our programmes are shaped around different travellers and markets.
Our local knowledge and relationships help us build travel experiences with the right balance of quality, comfort and cost. We look at the journey as a whole to make sure each element adds value for your clients.
From accommodation and transportation to guides, excursions, cruises and golf arrangements, we coordinate the essential services that keep a journey running smoothly. Our role can cover the complete ground operation or the specific services your programme requires.
Every journey requires more than a good itinerary. It needs the right people, services and local coordination to bring everything together. As a Vietnam DMC, we can support our partners with the essential elements of a journey, from the first travel concept to the final departure.
We create private and small-group journeys around your clients’ interests, travel style, pace and expectations.
We help select and arrange accommodation according to the itinerary, location, comfort level and needs of your clients.
Local guides and carefully chosen experiences bring destinations to life, from cultural discoveries and food experiences to nature and outdoor activities.
We can incorporate cruises, excursions and activities into your programmes, selecting options that fit naturally into the overall journey.
From airport transfers to private vehicles and journeys between destinations, we coordinate transportation throughout Vietnam and Southeast Asia.
We design golf itineraries combining selected courses with accommodation, transportation and experiences beyond the fairways.
For groups and organised programmes, we coordinate the different elements on the ground to create a smooth and well-connected travel experience.
A destination is more than the places you visit. It is also the stories you hear, the people you meet and the way a place is brought to life. Our guides are an important part of that experience. We work with local guides who know their destinations and understand that guiding is about more than simply explaining what travellers are looking at. A good guide knows when to share a story, where to stop, what local experience is worth discovering and how to adapt to the people they are travelling with. Whether exploring the history of Hanoi, walking through the landscapes of northern Vietnam, discovering Hoi An, travelling through the Mekong Delta or exploring Ho Chi Minh City's streets, the right guide can offer a deeper connection with the destination. For our international partners, we take into account the nature of each journey and the needs of each group when arranging guiding services. Because the person showing you Vietnam can become part of the story you take home.
Where you stay can shape the whole feeling of a journey. A hotel is not simply a place to sleep. Its location, atmosphere and character can influence how easily travellers discover a destination and how they experience their time there. We work with a range of accommodation options across Vietnam, from comfortable city hotels and charming local properties to beach resorts, boutique stays and premium hotels. When selecting accommodation, we consider the destination, the itinerary, the travel style and the expectations of your clients. A centrally located hotel may make sense for a city stay, while a peaceful resort or characterful property can become part of the experience itself. For tailor-made journeys, we can adapt accommodation choices to different budgets and preferences, while keeping them connected to the overall itinerary. Because the right place to stay should be part of the journey, not simply a stop along the way.
The best way to understand a journey is often to hear about it from the people who experienced it. Every itinerary is different, and every traveller takes something different home with them: a memorable place, a new discovery, a meal shared with locals or a moment they did not expect. Here are some of the experiences and impressions shared by travellers who have explored Vietnam with us. Their words tell the story better than we can.
The landscapes around Ninh Binh are absolutely beautiful, and the boat trip in Tam Coc in the rain added a very special atmosphere. Tom is a great guide, both for the cycling and the cultural stops. The cycling is perfectly manageable for people who are used to riding, although it may be a little more difficult for beginners, especially with the sequence of routes. For future travellers, I would definitely recommend bringing cycling shorts and gloves. The most surprising thing for our poor European bodies was the combination of heat and humidity 🥵😆. The last bike ride yesterday morning was a little more strenuous and faster 😇, but after lunch, the return to Hanoi was peaceful for everyone 😄😴. And then, in the evening, we experienced a tropical storm up close! The amount of water that poured down in just 30 minutes was impressive. Onward to new discoveries ☺

Working with ViettouristDMC has made a real difference to the way I create journeys in Southeast Asia. As a travel planner focused on slow and responsible tourism, finding a local DMC that understands the importance of authenticity, sustainability and respect for local communities is essential to me. The ViettouristDMC team is professional, attentive and easy to work with. They look after my guests with the same care and attention to detail that I would give them myself. Their itineraries are tailor-made around each client's interests and expectations, with the benefit of their local knowledge and experience. The feedback from my travellers has been consistently very positive, and it is always rewarding to hear how much they have enjoyed their time in the region. I also really value the fact that ViettouristDMC works as a true white-label partner. They represent my brand naturally while taking care of the arrangements behind the scenes, from logistics and guides to accommodation and local services. For me, ViettouristDMC is more than a supplier. They are a trusted local partner who makes it possible for me to create meaningful journeys for my clients while knowing that they are well looked after on the ground.

From a first idea to the final details, we create meaningful journeys shaped around the way you want to experience Vietnam and Southeast Asia.
If you want to visit Vietnam, you might be wondering what the weather is like in different months. Well, it depends on where you go and what you want to do. Vietnam has a diverse climate, so there is no one-size-fits-all answer. But don’t worry, I’ll give you a general overview of what to expect in each month, based on the average weather patterns. You can also check out the holidays and events that happen in each month in Vietnam.
January
This is a good month to enjoy the dry and pleasant weather in most parts of Vietnam, except for the north. The north can get quite cold, especially in the morning and evening. You might need some warm clothes and jackets if you go to places like Sapa and Ha Giang. If you’re looking for some beach time, head to Phu Quoc, where the sun is always shining. Just be aware that Halong Bay can be foggy this month, so you might not see the best views.
February
The weather gets warmer in most of Vietnam, except for the north, which still feels chilly. This is a high season for tourism, so expect more crowds and higher prices. But it’s also a great time to experience the TET festival, which is the Vietnamese New Year. It’s a big celebration with lots of food, fireworks, and fun. Just keep in mind that many shops, museums, and restaurants are closed for about a week during TET.
March
This is one of the best months to visit Vietnam, as the weather is fantastic everywhere. You have more options for beach destinations, such as Mui Ne, Con Dao, and Nha Trang. Hoi An is also a lovely place to enjoy the beach and the old town. This is also a great time to visit Halong Bay, which should have clear blue skies and no fog.
April
Like March, April is another great month to visit Vietnam, with amazing weather everywhere. This is also a high season for tourism, so be prepared for more crowds and higher prices.
May
The weather gets hotter in May, but it’s still a good time to visit Vietnam before the rainy season starts. You might get some rain in the north and south by the end of the month, but nothing too serious. You can also take advantage of the lower prices after the high season.
June
You might get some rain in the north and south of Vietnam, but it’s usually not too bad. You can still enjoy the sunny days in Hanoi, Mai Chau, and Halong Bay. The best place to be is in central Vietnam, where the weather is still dry and sunny. You can relax on the beaches of Lang Co and Hoi An, or explore the countryside and culture. This is also a good time to travel before the school holidays start next month.
July
Central Vietnam is still the best place to be in July, with lots of sunshine and little rain. The rest of Vietnam might have some showers, but they won’t ruin your fun.
August
Central Vietnam is still a good place to visit in August, although you might get some more rain by the end of the month. The rest of Vietnam might also have some rain, but it’s not too bad. You can also enjoy some discounts on flights and hotels during the low season.
September
This is a good month to catch the last sun on the central coast of Vietnam before it gets too rainy. The north and south are usually very wet this month, but you can still find some bargains on hotels.
October
The weather gets better in the north of Vietnam in October, and this is a great time to visit places like Sapa or Ha Giang. You can admire the stunning scenery of rice terraces, valleys, and mountains that change color with the seasons. You can also hike, bike, or stay with the local people who live there. This is not a good month for beach lovers, but Vietnam has so much more to offer than just beaches. And traveling in October means you avoid the crowds.
November
The high season starts again in November, as many people come to Vietnam for the cooler winter months in the north. By the end of the month, most of Vietnam is hot and dry again, except for the central region, which might have some rain.
December
There is still a chance of rain in the central part of Vietnam in December; however, most of Vietnam is hot and dry again. The beach season starts again on Phu Quoc island. You should book early for Christmas time, as it can get very busy.
