Best of Vietnam Travel Guides from the Blogosphere | Wanderlust Wendy

Last updated: June 2020

In 2016, I visited Vietnam for the first time. I was mesmerized by Saigon’s hustle and bustle, and touched by the kindness of people living along the Mekong Delta. The idea of living in this fascinating country planted a seed during this trip. Without consciously planning, we now called Vietnam home, after relocating here in July 2019.

I began curating these blog travel guides out of frustration during travel planning. So many posts that rank well in Google are stuffed with SEO words but lack quality information and/or pleasant viewing experience (too many pop-ups and ads). I attempt to find the best travel posts to help my own travel planning, and I hope they serve you as well!

If you have content that I should consider including, please feel free to contact me.
