I want to travel to Vietnam from Kunming by myself. What are the precautions and how much does it cost?

You are from Yunnan. Look where you are. For example, in border counties and towns, you can apply for border passes at the police station or border brigade with your ID card. If you have a border pass, you don't need a visa and passport to enter and leave the country. Moreover, this border is open point-to-point, which is set up to facilitate exchanges and trade between border people. If you are a county on the border of China, the border pass can only be used in the corresponding county after Vietnam, and the transit time is limited. It is not allowed to go to other counties and towns and not come back after a day. The police have the right to detain them.

Because China is not a member of ASEAN, it is not open to ASEAN members. As long as citizens of ten ASEAN member countries hold passports, all other member countries are visa-free. For example, Vietnam is visa-free to Thailand and Laos.

If you travel to Vietnam, you must apply for a visa, otherwise it will be illegal immigration, and the illegal immigration fee will be around 200 yuan. However, if caught, a fine of 2000+. This method is not recommended. If you join a group, you don't need a visa, but you should join the group completely, because the group has to take full responsibility and the tour group is guaranteed, so you don't need a visa for a few days.

And there are several kinds of visas, depending on what you do, let me introduce them to you! Tourist visa is generally a one-month time limit, about 400+ fast, and can be returned once a month; If you want to travel frequently, you can apply for a business visa. You can go back and forth many times, but it's much more expensive.

If you go alone, it depends on where you go to play. Can you speak Vietnamese? No, you'd better find someone to take it with you. You can find some college students studying in Vietnam, preferably with motorcycles. Some of them don't go home on holiday. People with cars know some good places to eat, drink and have fun, and the price will be much cheaper. Vietnamese especially like to slaughter foreigners, so be careful. If you are looking for a college student, it is convenient for you to get in and out. Just give them some tour guide fees when you leave. In fact, if you go to a stranger, the money you get killed may be more than the money you pay for the tour guide.

In fact, the consumption situation in Vietnam is similar to that in China. Food is a little more expensive than in China, but cosmetics and daily necessities are much cheaper than in China. Almost everything in Vietnam can be bargained, so it is best to talk about the price first and bargain fiercely. Don't show mercy, or your money will be wasted in their pockets. Regarding the exchange of money, the current exchange rate of house deed is 1 RMB, which is about 2,800 VND. When crossing the border, there may be many vendors vying to ask you if you want to change money. My suggestion is that it is best not to exchange money there, not only because the exchange rate is low, but also because there is a greater chance of counterfeit money. If you want to change money, you can go to the gold shop in Vietnam, where you sell jewelry and necklaces, and the exchange rate is high.

Another important point is hygiene. Sanitary conditions in Vietnam are very poor. It is strongly recommended that you take some cholera medicine, some vaccines, hepatitis B and so on. In Vietnam, food hygiene is not very good either. It is best to bring your own tableware, chopsticks and napkins when you go for the first time. Their food is unsanitary.

Just pay attention to the rest, and that's all I can do. I hope I can help you. Have a good time.
