I'd like to know what the single supplement is. I will be travelling in November 2026.

The single supplement is an additional fee charged to solo travelers who occupy a room meant for double occupancy. This fee compensates for the difference in cost when a room is not shared with another person.

Hannah from Silver Up Travel Vietnam was an excellent adviser for our holiday. Nothing was a problem and we were advised quickly. The buses were very good and all guides were most helpful, especially Tung who guided us around Sapa. She took us to a supermarket and explained what we were looking at. Thanks again Hannah!

We had a great experience with Up travel Vietnam on our tour of Northern Vietnam. Everything was organised and communicated clearly from Hannah our contact. She answered all of our concerns and went above and beyond to make sure we were at our transport points and organised a last minute food tour for us. Would recommend them and personally use again.
