Travel insurance is highly recommended for all international trips. It provides coverage for medical emergencies, trip cancellations, lost luggage, and other unexpected situations that may occur during your journey.
Tipping is not mandatory in Vietnam but is appreciated for good service. A tip of 10-15% in restaurants and a small amount for tour guides and drivers is considered polite.
