What this budget covers
These are estimated costs for travel between October and December. The dates shown are samples, not our real travel dates.
- Includes hotels, tours, and known transportation costs.
- Food is not included — budget for it separately.
- We carry $500 in spending cash and withdraw more if needed.
- We exchange money at local currency exchanges in Vietnam — the rate beats the airport and U.S. banks.
💡 Tip: Booking Ha Long Bay and airport pickup through your Hanoi hotel bundles logistics and often saves on transfers.
