6 tips for traveling to Vietnam
6 tips for traveling to Vietnam is my latest video giving you some essentials for when traveling to and also arriving in this beautiful south-east Asian country.
Vietnam offers so much to travelers both in terms of the sheer diversity of things to do and see as well as travel photographers such as myself. With a population of close to 100 million people and also around 55 minority tribes, you're sure to be amazed by your travels within the country.
Having been here over a half-dozen times I've started to amass a good knowledge of what you need to do in order to make your trip here that much more easier and successful.
Outlined in the video is information about the Vietnam visa update in August 2023. The visa-on-arrival process is changing so listen in to the first tip. Other tips include the famous Vietnamese coffee and the Vietnamese language too if you’re going to be engaging with the locals.
If you have any other tips then be sure to leave them in the comments below.

    I shoot real estate and have been looking for something that will make my work flow much quicker. I have been using the Ulanzi F38 quick release plates on my tripod and gimbal, and that has been excellent and I would prefer to maintain these when upgrading. What tripod would you recommend? I've seen so many overpriced tripods, I'm just looking for something stout that's not terribly expensive.

      If you arrive before the start date of your visa then you’ll have to get another one. So if your visa starts on 14 December but you arrive on 13 December then you’ll have problems.

    Lovely gesture Julian for you to go to the children's school and take the time to give something back to the kids, some lovely shots. I particularly like the one of the group of kids' having lunch, you captured the moment there spot on, you don't need any words to see how much the kids mean to her. Chappau. ps, i was looking at your vids of the Dolomites for info, slightly different scenery from Snowdonia and Anglesey, on the list to visit.
