How to Reach Vietnam from India

Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City are the main gateways for groups travelling from India. Da Nang may work as a direct or connecting route depending on your city and travel date.

Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi is around 25 km from the city centre. Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City is around 7 km away. Da Nang International Airport is around 2 km from central Da Nang.

Air India includes former Vistara routes following the November 2024 merger.

Try to keep the group on the same flight or within a similar arrival window. Separate arrivals may need extra vehicles. International travel doesn't always go exactly as planned, and flight delays are more common than most travellers expect. At Thrillophilia, we understand these real on-ground situations and plan our airport coordination accordingly so travellers aren't left worrying after they land.

That's why our on-ground teams factor in such situations while coordinating airport pickups wherever possible. Nishit Talsania from Delhi, who travelled on the Offbeat Vietnam Sightseeing Tour, recalled that, “Since we were travelling abroad, we were worried about the logistics, but the local coordinator handled everything. Even when we had a small flight delay, the transfer team waited for us patiently at the airport and greeted us with a smile… They truly know how to handle multi-generational family groups.”

Vietnam E-Visa for Indian Travellers

Indian passport holders need an approved e-visa. It may be issued for a single or multiple entries for up to 90 days.

• Single entry: USD 25, approximately INR 2,100
• Multiple entry: USD 50, approximately INR 4,200

Documents Required for a Vietnam E-Visa

• Passport valid for at least 6 months
• Passport information-page scan
• Recent photograph
• Entry and exit details
• Vietnam hotel address
• Online payment method

Apply through Vietnam’s official e-visa portal. Processing usually takes around 3 working days, but groups should apply 10 to 15 days before travel.

Print the approval and check your name, passport number, entry port and validity dates.

Phu Quoc may have separate short-stay conditions. Do not assume they apply if your trip continues to mainland Vietnam.

Verify current fees and requirements through the official Vietnam Immigration Department portal before applying.

Best Time to Visit Vietnam for a Group Tour

Vietnam can be visited throughout the year, but the weather varies significantly across the north, central, and southern regions. Choosing the right season based on your Vietnam tour package helps your group enjoy more comfortable sightseeing, smoother travel, and the best overall experience.

March and April work well for mixed routes. Families travelling to Vietnam in May or June should expect heat. December works well for South Vietnam, but Christmas and New Year can raise prices.

Best Places to Visit on a Vietnam Group Tour

Here are some of the best places to visit in Vietnam:

Hanoi

Most Vietnam group tours begin in Hanoi, where centuries-old heritage and busy local life come together. Groups can explore the Old Quarter, Hoan Kiem Lake, the Temple of Literature, and the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum while experiencing the city's famous street food culture. It is also the main gateway for onward journeys to Halong Bay and Ninh Binh.

Halong Bay

A visit to Halong Bay is one of the highlights of any Vietnam group tour, offering spectacular limestone karsts rising from emerald waters. Depending on the itinerary, travellers can enjoy a day cruise or an overnight stay featuring cave visits, kayaking, seafood meals, sunset views, and onboard cultural activities.

Ninh Binh

Often called the "Halong Bay on land", Ninh Binh is known for its limestone mountains, rice fields, and peaceful river landscapes. Vietnam group tours often cover Trang An or Tam Coc boat rides, the ancient capital of Hoa Lu, and panoramic viewpoints like Hang Mua, making it an excellent day trip or overnight destination.

Da Nang

Da Nang serves as an excellent base for Vietnam group tours if you’re planning to explore central Vietnam, while offering a laid-back coastal atmosphere. You can spend time at one of the best beaches in Vietnam, which is My Khe Beach, or visit the Marble Mountains, or head to Ba Na Hills to experience the famous Golden Bridge. Its modern infrastructure and easy connectivity also make it convenient for group travellers.

Hoi An

Hoi An offers a slower pace with beautifully preserved heritage streets, colourful lanterns, riverside cafés, and centuries-old merchant houses. Group travellers often enjoy walking tours, local food experiences, traditional tailoring shops, and evening visits when the lantern-lit Old Town creates a memorable atmosphere.

Ho Chi Minh City

Ho Chi Minh City showcases Vietnam's energetic urban side with a blend of history and modern life. Visiting landmarks like the War Remnants Museum, exploring Ben Thanh Market for shopping and local food, and taking a half-day excursion to the Cu Chi Tunnels to learn about Vietnam's wartime history are some of the best things to do in Hoi Chi Minh City. The city's vibrant cafés and nightlife also make it a favourite stop for groups.

Mekong Delta

The Mekong Delta offers a completely different side of Vietnam, where life revolves around rivers and canals. Cruise through narrow waterways, visit traditional villages, explore coconut candy and handicraft workshops, and experience local farming communities up close. It is a slower, more authentic experience that contrasts beautifully with Vietnam's busy cities.

Things to Do on a Vietnam Group Tour

Here are some of the best things to do in Vietnam:

Cruise Through Halong Bay

A Halong Bay cruise is one of Vietnam’s most popular experiences, taking you past thousands of limestone karsts and emerald waters recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Depending on your itinerary, you may enjoy freshly prepared seafood meals, visit impressive caves like Sung Sot Cave, relax on the sundeck, or join optional activities such as kayaking and bamboo boat rides.

Explore Hanoi on a Food Walk

A guided food walk through Hanoi introduces you to the city's centuries-old culinary traditions while exploring the bustling streets of the Old Quarter. Along the way, you can sample authentic local dishes such as pho, bun cha, banh mi, and egg coffee from long-established family-run eateries while learning about Vietnam's food culture from local guides.

Ride the Ba Na Hills Cable Car

The Ba Na Hills Cable Car is among the world's longest non-stop cable car systems, offering panoramic views of forests, waterfalls, and mountain valleys. At the summit, you can visit the famous Golden Bridge, stroll through French-inspired architecture, explore themed attractions, and enjoy the cooler mountain climate throughout the day.

Experience a Basket Boat Ride in Hoi An

A basket boat ride through Hoi An's peaceful Cam Thanh Coconut Village offers a glimpse into the region's traditional fishing lifestyle. Local boatmen navigate the narrow waterways while demonstrating basket boat-spinning techniques, sharing stories about the mangrove ecosystem, and introducing visitors to everyday life in rural central Vietnam.

Discover the Cu Chi Tunnels

The Cu Chi Tunnels provide fascinating insight into Vietnam's wartime history through a vast underground network once used by soldiers during the Vietnam War. Guided visits include preserved tunnel sections, hidden entrances, command centres, living quarters, and historical exhibits that help visitors understand the ingenuity and resilience of the people who built them.

Cruise Through the Mekong Delta

A boat ride through the Mekong Delta lets you experience Vietnam's rural life as you travel along narrow canals lined with coconut palms and riverside villages. Many tours include visits to local workshops producing coconut candy and rice paper, tropical fruit orchards, traditional music performances, and opportunities to interact with local families who have lived along the delta for generations.

Vegetarian Food Guide for Vietnam Group Tours

Vietnamese cuisine is built around rice, noodles, fresh herbs, vegetables, fish sauce, and meat-based broths. While vegetarian food is widely available in major cities, some dishes may still contain fish sauce, egg, or meat stock unless specifically requested. When travelling with Thrillophilia, you will get daily breakfast with vegetarian options, and wherever meals are part of the Vietnam group tours from India, you will get them.

The word “chay” means vegetarian. Confirm whether the dish contains egg, dairy, fish sauce or seafood seasoning.

Vegetarian Restaurants in Hanoi

Vi Lai Vegetarian Restaurant is at 67 Ly Thuong Kiet in Hoan Kiem District, close to the French Quarter. It serves Vietnamese vegetarian dishes and works well after central Hanoi sightseeing.

Vegetarian Restaurants in Da Nang

Rasoi Indian Restaurant serves vegetarian and vegan Indian food in Da Nang. It suits groups looking for familiar meals during a central Vietnam route.

Vegetarian Restaurants in Hoi An

Minh Hien 3 Vegetarian Restaurant is at 25 Dinh Tien Hoang, within walking distance of the Old Town. The menu includes vegetarian versions of local dishes.

Vegetarian Restaurants in Ho Chi Minh City

Tathata Vegan Restaurant serves a plant-based menu. Confirm the current branch location and group seating before visiting.

Halong Bay cruises can arrange vegetarian meals when informed in advance. Jain meals need more planning, so share restrictions while booking and repeat them 48 to 72 hours before each guided meal.

Carry packaged snacks for early flights and long journeys. Ask for a packed breakfast when the group leaves before the hotel’s normal breakfast time.
