The ideal time is 1 - 2 months before the departure date.
2. Monitor Weather Updates: Weather from January to February can be unpredictable, especially varying depending on the chosen destination. Therefore, travelers need to stay informed to prepare appropriate clothing, gear, and adjust their itinerary according to the weather conditions.
3. Pack Your Luggage Carefully: 'Enough - Essential - Compact' is the criterion for travelers to organize their luggage for themselves and their family. During the Tet holiday, some destinations may have closed eateries, so travelers need to anticipate and prepare accordingly.
4. Pay Attention to Procedures and Documents: For travelers choosing destinations that require air travel or traveling abroad for the Lunar New Year, checking procedures and documents thoroughly is essential.
