Enjoy the fun of off-season travel

Why should you only go to the beach in the summer? Why should you only travel to Con Dao and Phu Quoc during holidays, Tet, and April 30? Why don't you try doing the opposite? Traveling off-season will give you interesting experiences and save you money.

Hue is gentle in the season of falling leaves.

Delicious, nutritious, cheap…

Normally, the tourist season is from May to August of the year, the peak will be around June and July. In addition, there is the Lunar New Year month, long holidays such as April 30. Thus, the remaining months will be considered off-season.

For example, Nha Trang is a destination that attracts many tourists because of its clear beaches and long stretches of sand. There is nothing to say about traveling to Nha Trang in the summer, but have you tried coming here in the winter? The last days of November are cold and gloomy, although not as cold as in the North, but enough for the people here to put on an extra coat and just walk on the beach instead of rushing down to swim like in the summer mornings.

Nha Trang beach in winter days is very peaceful and poetic

The weather is chilly, so I put on a thin coat, a scarf and cycled to the beach. Nha Trang in the early winter days has no dancing sunlight, no rows of casuarinas leaning in the wind. The beach is quiet, listening to the wind singing love songs. A few guests lie on the chairs reading books. No colorful bikinis, no laughter, no noisy afternoons. Only soft footsteps, walking along the beach on bare feet. Nha Trang these days is peaceful and poetic.

That is just a small example I want to share with you. It is sad if you travel to relieve stress, to see nature but only see... people. Travel in the off-season to immerse yourself in the vast, open space, to explore the wild beauty and enjoy a carefree, peaceful life.

During peak tourist season, all costs from rent, food to services at major tourist destinations will double or triple the normal price, not to mention the risk of being ripped off. Moreover, you will not have the opportunity to explore the daily life of local people and will only meet other tourists like you.

It is not difficult to realize that off-season travel is the best way to save money and still have an enjoyable vacation. You will save a lot of money, from airfare, room rates to food and other entertainment services…

At this time, tour prices are stable, and there are even many low-season promotion programs from airlines, hotels, and tourist areas. From there, travel agencies offer programs with the best prices of the year and especially the services are also much better.

Besides, traveling on weekdays is not too crowded, the quality of service is much better.

Revealing some surprisingly cheap destinations

Winter is a wonderful time to travel to some provinces in the Northwest highlands. Sa Pa (Lao Cai), Ha Giang, Moc Chau ... are the winter tourist destinations in the North that attract young people with affordable costs. Coming to these places, you can not only immerse yourself in the quiet space of fog but also experience the vast winter flower fields, enjoy the typical dishes of the highlands, frost all year round. Motorbikes are a very flexible and economical means of transport, but the winter roads to the highlands are quite slippery, so your steering wheel must be very flexible.

Dalat in winter is covered with mist.

Da Lat is also an interesting destination. Da Lat in late November and early December is when you can fully appreciate its inherent romantic and peaceful beauty. At this time, the long rains stop, the cool breeze brings the chill of early winter. What could be more romantic than walking on the streets filled with the colors and scents of flowers, in the cool, fresh air here.

Choose public bus service as a means of sightseeing. When you have arrived at your destination, find a room or motel managed by the locals. The prices there are usually very cheap, for example, this season, if you go to Nghe An to see the sunflowers, the locals will only charge you a maximum of 100,000/night. Even if you are polite and quick, they will let you stay for free.

Hanoi in early winter days is like a silent old man.

Of course, besides the advantages of delicious, nutritious, and cheap, off-season travel has a limitation: whether that time is suitable for your work and study schedule or not. Before going, you should also learn about the locality, scenic spots, and specialties of the place you will visit! A status on Facebook asking for advice from everyone, a phone call to ask acquaintances for more experience will not take much of your time, right?
