What to prepare for traveling to Vietnam in October?

Attire-Vietnam Travel

From November to March of the following year, northern Vietnam is quite cold and humid. You should bring a coat and sweater when traveling at this time. From early May to November every year, it is the rainy season in southern Vietnam. When traveling at this time, you should consider the rainproof performance of your clothing. No matter when you go, it’s more practical to choose dark and breathable clothing. The main reason for choosing dark colors is that the local water quality is not good and light-colored clothes are easy to wash. The good breathability helps keep the body fresh when sweating. A good hat or sun hat can reduce a lot of heat and can be used as a folding fan to keep cool when resting.

Shoes-Vietnam Travel

Hiking shoes or sandals are enough for the entire trip. Bring a pair of slippers that can relax your feet enough, or you can buy them along the way. It is best to have shoes that are easy to put on and take off, as you often have to take them off to enter the pagoda.

Air Pillow-Vietnam Travel

Most of the time will be spent in the car when traveling, so bring an air pillow and take the time to rest in the car.

Mosquito incense-Vietnam Travel

Very useful, especially for people who are prone to mosquito bites; you can also use mosquito repellent water instead.

Toiletries-Vietnam Travel

A must-have for everyone. There are supermarkets along the way selling some popular brands. Bring a piece of soap with you for laundry when traveling long distances, it is hard to find soap in supermarkets. Clothesline is a must. If you don’t want to wash your clothes yourself, you can have them washed by the hotel for US$1 per kilogram.

Toilet Paper-Vietnam Tourism

Most hotels provide toilet paper, but it is not suitable for other purposes. Better quality toilet paper is available in supermarkets. Female travelers need to bring their own sanitary products and are afraid to buy most of the brands in supermarkets.

Wet wipes-Vietnam Travel

You can use them to wipe away the dust on your face and hands on the road, and you can also use them when you are unable to wash up. I didn’t find any supermarkets along the way selling it.

Sunscreen - Vietnam Travel

Spf30 or above is useful, it is best to prepare some after-sun repair cream and the like. Otherwise, it would not be a good thing to have your skin peeling off from the sun all over your body.

Sunglasses-Vietnam Travel

Used to deal with the strong sunshine in Vietnam.

Personal Items - Traveling in Vietnam

Small items that are necessary to carry with you, such as locks, hairpins, rubber bands, nail clippers, needlework and other small things. Put every small thing you can think of into the same bag to make it easier to find.

Mature Vinegar - Vietnam Travel

If you can’t live without vinegar when eating seafood, bring a bottle with you. There is no mature vinegar there.
