5 Reasons to Fall in Love with Vietnam

Explore the wonders of Vietnam in 2025

Between bustling cities, vibrant rice paddies, peaceful rivers, dream beaches and refined flavours, Vietnam captivates everyone who takes the time to explore it. If you dream of a tailor-made trip to Vietnam, let yourself be carried away by five reasons to love this magnificent country that combines heritage and renewal.

You love the history of imperial dynasties

For your trip, whether alone, as a couple or with family, experience the alchemy between cruising and heritage. A boat ride on the Perfume River in Hue takes you to the heart of the majestic tombs of the Nguyen dynasty. From Gia Long, the founder in 1814, to Khai Dinh, the penultimate emperor in 1920, relive the glorious history of Vietnam facing Mount Ngu Binh. Historical sites are superbly restored and accessible to all visitors in 2025, contributing to the boom of cultural tourism in the country.

You love authentic encounters

Vietnam fascinates as much by its landscapes as by the warmth of its inhabitants. During a homestay in the North-West, discover the rice terraces shaped by the Black Hmong and share genuine moments of daily life. Traditions endure, and rural festival competitions are an opportunity to try your hand at archery, martial arts or horse racing. Immersive stays and ethnic experiences are highly popular this year.

You love paradise islands

Follow in the footsteps of preserved islands such as Phu Quoc, the pearl of the Gulf of Thailand. Along nearly 50 km of coastline, golden beaches and clear waters invite relaxation or adventure. In 2025, the island unveils new hiking trails, nature activities, traditional fishing and countless diving spots among the surrounding islets: a promise of wonder for young and old alike.

You love getting closer to world cultures

Among the original experiences to be had in Vietnam, do not miss the Cao Dai temple in Tay Ninh, a unique place where Asian and European philosophies unite. The colourful ceremonies – accompanied by chants and incense – offer a glimpse into Vietnamese spirituality, notably with Caodaism and its five million followers. This spiritual eclecticism fascinates and invites openness to others.

You love coffee

Vietnam is a world of coffee, being the second largest producer globally and passionate about variations. Enjoy ca phe den (black), ca phe sua da (iced with condensed milk), ca phe trung (egg coffee) or even coffee yoghurts in small local stalls or trendy venues in big cities. The phin filter coffee ritual remains a must for any caffeine lover!

Unmissable highlights for your trip to Vietnam in 2025
