My Slovenian friend refuses return visit to Vietnam

What’s worth mentioning is that they visit Thailand every year, and they even got married there. I often want to ask why they haven’t return to Vietnam, but honestly, I haven’t asked them for fear that they would find it embarrassing to answer my question.

The above comment was left by reader Pham about tourists refusing to return to Vietnam for a second visit.

Many other readers have also expressed their views about this problem.

Reader Trang Nguyen said she had invited a foreign friend to Vietnam and arranged a seven-day itinerary to explore culture and cuisine. However, her friend “had a problem while visiting Vietnam” and shortened his trip to three days. Since then, she hasn’t ever invited him to visit the country again.

A reader identified as Nana wrote: “I really like going to Bali. First, there are direct flights. Second, there are many beach activities that are much cheaper than in Vietnam, for example paragliding, surfing, paragliding, scuba diving, fish watching and swimming with dolphins. Meanwhile, hotels in Bali are quite cheap.”

Reader CrazyHand2947 wrote: “Travel consulting groups for tourists must honestly advise them on when and how to visit Vietnam for the greatest experience. For example, someone once asked me if they should travel to Vietnam right now? What I should say is: ‘At this time the weather is very hot and not suitable for sightseeing. If you come to Ho Chi Minh City, you should rest in your room with air conditioner and only go out after 7 p.m. When traveling to Hanoi, you should come in the fall and winter.’ If we want tourists to have the best experience, we should give them the best advice and treat them the way we would want to be treated.”

Have you visited Vietnam and would you like to come back?
