Vietnam Tours From Singapore

This winter season (from 25 October 2026 to late March 2027), Singapore Airlines flies four times a day to Ho Chi Minh City and three times a day each to Hanoi and Da Nang. One new evening flight, SQ188, leaves Changi at 21:50 and lands in Ho Chi Minh City at 23:00 local time. Scoot flies three times a day to Ho Chi Minh City and daily to Da Nang. It has also stepped up Phu Quoc to daily and flies three times a week to Nha Trang (Cam Ranh). Vietjet flies from Singapore to Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Phu Quoc and Nha Trang, and Vietnam Airlines flies to Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Some of the extra winter flights are seasonal, so check with the airline before you book.

With this many flights, open-jaw tickets are easy – fly into one city and home from another. Below is how we usually plan by trip length.

A long weekend (3–5 days)

Pick one region and do it well. Hoi An and Da Nang are three hours away, with three Singapore Airlines flights a day plus Scoot and Vietjet. Spend a day in the old town, a morning cycling through the countryside and an afternoon by the beach. Hanoi and Ha Long Bay is the other classic: one night in the city, then one or two nights on a cruise. Our Lan Ha Bay cruise on Indochine Cruises – 3 days starts from US$782 per person. For pure rest, Phu Quoc is under two hours away with a daily Scoot flight, and an island-only visit is visa-free.

A week (6–8 days)

Combine two regions with one domestic flight, for example Hanoi and Ha Long Bay plus Hoi An, or Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta plus Phu Quoc. If you want to switch off completely, the Vietnam Wellness Tour – 7 days starts from US$988 per person. Golfers can look at the Luxury Vietnam Golf Tour with the SJourney Train – 8 days, from US$7,750 per person.

The school holidays (10–14 days or more)

The June break and the year-end holiday give you time for the whole country at an unhurried pace. Our Best of Vietnam itineraries run for 10 or 14 days, from US$996 or US$1,455 per person (based on 3–4 adults; domestic flights quoted separately). For a special occasion, the Vietnam Luxury Tour with the SJourney Train – 13 days starts from US$8,600 per person (twin/double room and cabin). It is easy to add Cambodia too: our Siem Reap and Phnom Penh Escape – 6 days starts from US$840 per person.

MOE has published the 2027 school calendar. Here is how each break matches Vietnam’s weather; our month-by-month guide has more detail.

• Year-end holiday 2026 (until 31 December) and year-end 2027 (20 November – 31 December): dry and warm in the south and on Phu Quoc. Hanoi and the north are cool and crisp – a real change from Singapore. Central Vietnam can still be wet in November.
• March break (13–21 March 2027): spring in Hanoi and a good time for Ha Long Bay, Ninh Binh and Hoi An.
• June holidays (29 May – 27 June 2027): the central coast – Da Nang, Hoi An and Hue – is at its sunniest. The north is hot, and the mountains are green and milder.
• September break (4–12 September 2027): good for the north as the heat eases.

Chinese New Year coincides with Vietnam’s Tet festival. It is festive, but transport fills up and some shops close for a few days, so book early. Official dates: MOE school terms and holidays for 2027.

Visa. Singapore passport holders can generally enter Vietnam without a visa and stay up to 30 days per entry, although entry is at the discretion of Vietnamese immigration (MFA Singapore). For longer stays, apply for the official e-visa at evisa.gov.vn. It is valid for up to 90 days with single or multiple entry. Your passport should be valid for at least six months from arrival. Permanent residents of other nationalities follow the rules for their own passport.

Money. Vietnam uses the dong; check xe.com for today’s rate. Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted at 4–5★ hotels and smarter restaurants. Carry dong for markets, street food and tips.

Power. Vietnamese sockets mostly take two-pin Type A and C plugs at 220 V, 50 Hz. Your Type G plugs need an adapter, but no voltage converter.

Ho Chi Minh City airports. The new Long Thanh International Airport (LTH) is due to open. Some international flights may move there from 2027, although routes under 1,000 km by Vietnamese carriers are expected to stay at Tan Son Nhat. Check which Ho Chi Minh City airport is on your ticket: Tan Son Nhat (SGN) or Long Thanh (LTH).

In our experience as trip planners, Singapore travellers make the most of being so close. They combine long weekends with a few days of leave, return for a different region each time and expect smooth logistics. Repeat visitors often ask for somewhere new – Ninh Binh’s limestone valleys, the rice terraces of the north, or a quieter stretch of coast. Food is always a highlight, from Old Quarter street-food walks to cooking classes in the countryside. We can arrange halal or vegetarian meals on request.

Every trip is private: airport pick-up, your own guide and driver, and hotels close to the sights, so no time is lost on a short trip. Travelling with children or grandparents? See our Vietnam family tours. Prices above are the “from” prices listed on each tour page, per person, based on 2 travellers sharing unless noted. Your final price is confirmed for your dates, and flights are not included.
