Step 1: Check Your Passport

Your Passport must:

  • Maintain its validity for a minimum of six months beyond your return date.

  • Have at least 2 blank visa pages.

  • If you do not hold an Australian Passport, check with your nearest embassy if necessary. 

  • If you renew your passport after you have booked, please let us know as soon as possible.

Step 2: Receive your Booking Confirmation Email

Once the tour hit the minimum number required for the tour, we'll send you a Booking Confirmation Email right away. If your tour is guaranteed to depart, you will receive a Booking Confirmation Email straight after you book.

Step 3: Receive Visa Grant Notice Email and book your flights

After you have received your Visa Grant Notice email, you can proceed to book your flights from and to Australia. If you're not confident in booking your flights, feel free to reach out and we'll provide you guidance on suitable flights free of charge.

Note: Please do not proceed to book your flight before receiving your Visa Grant Notice email.

Step 4: Complete the Trip Preparation Form

Fill out the trip preparation form here.This will allow us to process your visa, book your flights and secure your accommodations. So the earlier you do this, the better!

Baggage Allowance

Unless you have requested otherwise, standard baggage allowance is 20KG for checked baggage and 7KG for carry-on per person. 

Other things to consider

Currency Exchange

While credit & debit cards are widely used around the world, cash is still the most common method of transaction in Vietnam, especially among street vendors. We recommend you to have a combination of cash and a travel card for flexibility.

Mobile Network and Data

Electrical Adaptor

You may consider purchasing a power adaptor to charge your existing electronic devices such as mobile phone, tablet, laptop, etc. Australia uses the standard plug "Type I" while Vietnam uses both "Type A" and "Type C". Please see image below for reference.

 

Shopping for travel adaptors can be confusing, so we recommend you to purchase an All in One Travel Power Plug.

Betty

"We went on a 2 week Vietnam tailor made tour with Mystical Asia. Peter was nothing but helpful. As a couple in our 50s I felt like Peter really understood our struggles and he designed a tour that was not too full on but it was still very enjoyable for us"

Sam

"Tbh I was a bit worried as a friend of mine booked a Vietnam trip with another travel agent and they said the budget hotels were a bit dirty and tour barely included any meals. The husband and I decided to give you guys a go and I wished my friends booked with you instead. The hotels we stayed in were amazing (epsecially La sesta I think in Hanoi) and Binh the tour leader was really helpful. It was a bit pricy but I guess you really get what you pay for. And as you said life is too short for crappy trips lol"

Diane

"I've been to Vietnam a few times but wanted to take the girlfriends over so they can explore the country. At first was a bit hard to plan by ourselves since all of us wanted to do different things. The itinerary that Peter designed for us was so flexible and it really had that balance between local experiences for myself and the touristy stuffs for my girlfriends. But overall we had an amazing time. so thank you."
