What people love about Vietnam Tours in January
- Best of Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi 7 Days - Super Save
The trip was great. We saw a lot in a short amount of time. The guides were excellent and communicated very well. Halong bay cruise was our favorite part.
- Ultimate 10-Day Vietnam Discovery: Ho Chi Minh, Hanoi Culture, Nature & Heritage
We had an amazing 10-day journey through Vietnam with Up Travel Vietnam, and it couldn’t have been better thanks to Hannah, who assisted us every step of the way. From Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, everything was well organised—smooth transfers, comfortable hotels, knowledgeable local guides, and unforgettable experiences like Ha Long Bay, Hoi An, and the Cu Chi Tunnels. Hannah was incredibly helpful, responsive, and always available to answer questions or adjust plans when needed. Her support made our trip stress-free and enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommend Up Travel and especially Hannah for anyone looking to explore Vietnam with confidence and comfort!
- Best of Vietnam - Feel Free Travel
Incredible Trip to Vietnam! I went on the Vietnam trip with tour guides Jonny and Emilija this past month and the trip was nothing short of amazing. While the itinerary was incredible, Jonny and Emijila went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and excited every step of the trip. They’re love for traveling and living in the present is truly contagious. They always had the best recommendations and suggestions wherever you go and feel like your friends more than your tour guides. I would have never experienced my main highlights of Vietnam without them and Feel Free Travel. Even after the trip ended Jonny has helped me with transportation and accommodations within Vietnam and even Cambodia. They both are so knowledgeable on Asia and are very supportive even after your trip ends. I cannot recommend both Jonny and Emilija as tour guides and trips through FFT enough!

This price includes stays at quality hotels like The Light Hotel Hanoi and Harmony Saigon Hotel alongside most meals and domestic flights.

Travelers on TourRadar often mention the Koi Resort in Hoi An and Ba Na Hills as standout experiences.

What's the weather like in different regions of Vietnam in January?
Vietnam's weather varies by region in January. The north including Hanoi sees temperatures of 18-20°C with little rain. Central regions like Hoi An and Hue maintain mild temperatures between 22-25°C with occasional light rain. The south including Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta enjoys warm dry days at 25-30°C. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "The January weather was perfect for exploring - cool enough in Hanoi for comfortable walking tours but warm enough in the south for enjoying the beaches."
Is January a good time for cruising Halong Bay?
Clear visibility and comfortable 20°C temperatures make January one of the top months for Halong Bay cruises. Operators like Le Journey Cruise and La Pandora Cruise run regular trips offering kayaking and cave exploration. According to a TourRadar traveler: "Cruising Halong Bay in January was magical - the cool weather and clear visibility made for stunning photos of the limestone karsts."
How busy are tourist attractions in Vietnam during January?
January marks peak season across Vietnam's popular destinations. Expect more visitors at key sites like Hanoi's Temple of Literature and Hoan Kiem Lake. Premium accommodations including The Myst Dong Khoi in Ho Chi Minh City and Apricot Hotel in Hanoi often reach full capacity early. One TourRadar traveler noted: "The Ancient Town in Hoi An was bustling with activity but staying at the Silkotel Hoi An provided a peaceful retreat from the crowds."
What kind of accommodations are available in Vietnam during January?
The high season brings a full range of lodging options. Hanoi offers the 5-star Apricot Hotel and boutique Tirant Hotel. Halong Bay features luxury vessels like Paradise Sails and La Pandora Cruise.

A TourRadar traveler shared: "The hotels were all centrally located and provided excellent service during our January visit."
How far in advance should I book a Vietnam tour for January?
Peak season demands booking 3-4 months ahead minimum. Popular choices like Palm Garden in Hoi An and Doris Cruise in Halong Bay often sell out 6 months in advance. One TourRadar traveler advised: "We booked our January tour 4 months ahead and even then some of our preferred hotels were already full - early booking is essential."
