• Be careful of strong UV rays when sunbathing on the beach, and sunscreen is a must. • Vietnamese currency (VND) is easy to confuse due to the exchange rate difference, so we recommend using an app (e.g. XE Currency).
• When renting a scooter, you may be asked for a driver's license, and it is essential to check whether you have insurance.
• At restaurants, check the price list before ordering, and at some tourist attractions, you may need to bargain.
