What people love about Vietnam Tours in January
- Best of Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi 7 Days - Super Save
For the most part the tour and tour guides were very good and knowledgeable. Our major concern was the overnight stay on the boat at Ha Long Bay. The room we were allocated from the outset had issues with diesel fumes within the room (we were on the 2nd deck right above the engine room) these fumes remained in the room to a varying degree dependent on the boat running or at anchor. The toilet in our room did not flush then started to emit a very unpleasant smell. We spoke to our tour representative on the boat (Brian) who arranged for a crewman to fix the problem. This only caused more issues with the toilet now leaking over the bathroom floor. There was also water backflowing out of the drain in the shower and floor near toilet. This could not be fixed and a number of beach towels were laid on the floor and around the base of the toilet to soak up the leakage. This forced my wife and I to walk down to the first-floor main toilet every time when required for use (the room next to ours had been locked off for similar plumbing issues). There was also a leak in one of our windows in the bedroom. We had an air conditioner in our room which did not work which also added to the issue with not dispersing diesel fumes. There were no other rooms available to relocate to as it was a full cruise. When we spoke to Brian about these issues, he was understanding but couldn't do anything more for us and then told us after this cruise this vessel was headed to dry dock for major repairs. Why was this boat allowed to conduct this tour if there were so many known faults? We would like to add Mr Danny was a great tour operator in Hanoi. Mr Hien & Mr TinTin in Saigon were excellent tour guides. If it hadn't been for the room issues on the boat this would have rated as an excellent tour.
Fabulous!! Well planned, from the morning pick ups to each days itinerary. Great daily communication with the agents at Hoi An Express - any inquiries were addressed promptly. I would use them again!

What our customers ask about Vietnam Tours in January 2026
How much do tours typically cost in Vietnam during January?
Tour prices in Vietnam during January generally run between $650 to $2480 for 6-11 day packages. An 8-day tour covering key destinations like Hanoi Halong Bay Hoi An and Ho Chi Minh City costs around $1850 per person. This price includes stays at quality hotels like The Light Hotel Hanoi and Harmony Saigon Hotel alongside most meals and domestic flights.
What are the best places to visit in Vietnam during January?
The clear January skies make this an excellent time to explore Halong Bay from the deck of Paradise Sails Cruise. The ancient streets of Hoi An come alive with lantern-lit evenings while the Mekong Delta offers peaceful boat tours through its waterways. Travelers on TourRadar often mention the Koi Resort in Hoi An and Ba Na Hills as standout experiences. The dry conditions create perfect opportunities for exploring the Cu Chi Tunnels and wandering through Hanoi's Old Quarter.
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. In Ho Chi Minh City The Myst Dong Khoi represents the luxury end while Elios Hotel serves mid-range travelers well. 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."
