Best time to go.
The best time to visit Vietnam is from November to April, when the weather is cooler and drier. This period is ideal for exploring the country from north to south.
Time difference.
Vietnam is 5 hours behind New Zealand. The time difference is manageable, but you might need a day or two to fully adjust

"I have worked with Maxine for a number of years, and she has consistently been helpful in providing a range of flight options. She always takes the time to find the best deals to suit our needs and makes the booking process straightforward and stress-free. I would highly recommend Maxine to friends and family and appreciate her excellent service and attention to detail."
Jason and Niki"Gave options, was quick and efficient."
Edward"She was fast in putting a quote together - same day we spoke about it. She had 3 strong options for me all within budget and to the brief I had explained. Everything was confirmed within the week for a very short turnaround holiday in a place with limited accomodation due to how last minute the trip was. I definitely recommend working with Jaz, this is the second holiday she has booked for us and won't be the last!"

Travel -it broadens our
views, creates lasting memories and allows you to take a break from the
ordinary.
In recent years, I have taken to much more adventurous travel, heading to
Central Asia and exploring Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, exploring much of
Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Shanghai and looking forward to our next adventures in
Africa.
I love travelling with my family and seeing my teenage girls minds blown by the
experiences they have in different countries - different ways of living,
different foods, different cultures, amazing sites (and sights!) and really
seeing what is important to other people outside of NZ.
I love hearing about the epic adventures people have planned and love helping
pull things together to give you your Best Holiday Ever. Give me a call or send
me an email to get started on your next journey.
