Tet Fiesta Tour, Vietnam

During Tet, all offices, agencies and organizations are closed in Vietnam; the only exception is Voyage Vietnam. Voyage Vietnam has organized Tet tours with families in the countryside for a number of years now even though it's one of the most difficult times to do so because the whole country stops what they are doing and celebrates. We here at Voyage Vietnam will ensure all our services are met while on tour.

Vietnam's Tet is very special. The more people you are, the happier you will be, as the local saying goes. Most of Voyage Vietnam staff will go on tour during Tet. As they know it's one of the best periods to visit the country, everybody is in a festive mood. Each big group will consist of no more than 15 people and 3 guides. These big groups are divided into 3 separate groups on the road and will meet up during overnight stops for playing, eating, drinking and recounting the tales of that days adventure.

Tet programs normally last 8 days.

Vietnamese people believe that if a foreign visitor comes to their house on Tet, they will have a very happy, lucky and prosperous New Year. Do you want to bring them good fortune prosperity and happiness? Contact us for more details regarding Tet tours.
