Traveling through Vietnam with kids can feel overwhelming at first—the buzzing scooters, busy cities, and endless sights to explore. But once you slow down, you’ll discover that Vietnam is one of Asia’s most welcoming, affordable, and family-friendly destinations.
We’ve traveled here multiple times—from the mountain trails of Sapa to the beaches of Phu Quoc—and found safe stays, kind hosts, and unforgettable experiences for little travelers.
This collection brings together all our Vietnam with Kids guides in one place—helping you plan confidently, from the first itinerary idea to choosing the perfect homestay or resort.
Real experiences. Practical tips. And the reassurance that yes—Vietnam can be your easiest, most heartwarming family adventure yet.
Red dunes. A wide blue sky. Sky-blue water stretches behind them. Those images are everywhere—and they’re striking enough to make anyone stop and wonder.
Is this place really like that, and does it actually work with kids?
That curiosity is exactly what brought us to Mui Ne this time.
Here’s our experience of Mui Ne with kids—beyond the filters—and whether this famous beach town truly deserves a spot in a family Vietnam itinerary.
Nha Trang sits conveniently along Vietnam’s north–south travel line. It connects well by train, flight, and bus, making it a common stopover city between Da Nang, Da Lat, Mui Ne, and Ho Chi Minh City. That’s where this guide comes from. Let’s see. What we experienced in Nha Trang with the kids in one day was basically a stopover before heading to Da Lat.
This was our third trip to Vietnam and our first time visiting Da Nang with kids, so we were already familiar with Vietnam’s beautiful chaos. Because of a packed itinerary, we could only spend two days in Da Nang—but even in that short time, the city left a lasting impression on us.
Hanoi—Vietnam’s capital and second most populous city—can feel chaotic, messy, and endlessly fascinating all at once.
Whether you’re using Hanoi as your first stop in Vietnam, a base for exploring Ha Long Bay or Ninh Binh, or simply planning a couple of days to soak in its rhythm, this city deserves its own slow chapter.
Explore the best family hotels, beach resorts, and homestays from north to south Vietnam—safe, cozy, and full of charm. After three trips across Vietnam, we’ve shared our experiences with the best recommendations.
