For citizens of the UK, US, Australia, Europe, Canada and New Zealand, many of our destinations simply require a valid passport. This is either because no visa is required, or because visas are available upon arrival. For Vietnam, a visa is sometimes required to be arranged prior to departure, and the best way for you to get one will depend on a few factors. Your consultant will advise you of your best options – and although we cannot arrange visas for you, we can point you in the right direction.
