Vietnam Tour Packages from Hyderabad
One airline flies Shamshabad to Hanoi, another flies Shamshabad to Saigon – so a Hyderabad trip can enter the North and leave from the South without doubling back. Private Vietnam holidays planned around those two flights.
Hyderabad has something few Indian cities have for Vietnam: non-stop flights to both ends of the country. As of November 2026, Vietnam Airlines flies from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) at Shamshabad to Hanoi, and VietJet flies from RGIA to Ho Chi Minh City, which most people still call Saigon. Each runs about three times a week, both leave close to midnight and land before dawn, and both return flights reach Hyderabad around 10 pm. Put the two together and you can fly into Hanoi, travel south through Ha Long Bay, Hoi An and the Mekong Delta, and fly home from Saigon – the route most first-time visitors want – without a single backtracking flight.
The catch is the calendar. With only a few departures a week on each route, the flight days decide how many nights you get, and the cheapest week is the one where both flights line up with your leave. This page explains that in plain terms, with indicative package prices, the e-visa as of November 2026, three itineraries matched to the flight pattern, the Telangana holiday calendar and food for Hyderabad families – halal, pure-veg and those who simply want their food spicy. Your trip is planned by our team in Ahmedabad on WhatsApp and phone; we do not have a Hyderabad office.

Vietnam package prices from Hyderabad (2026–27)
Our 24 Vietnam packages start at ₹21,999 per person today. These are indicative per-person ranges for two sharing, excluding the international airfare from Hyderabad and the e-visa fee. They include hotels with breakfast, private airport transfers and sightseeing with an English-speaking guide, flights inside Vietnam where the route needs them, and the overnight Ha Long Bay cruise with meals where it appears.
| Route | Standard (3-star) | Deluxe (4-star, balcony cruise cabin) | Premium (5-star, luxury cruise) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 nights – Hanoi and an overnight Ha Long cruise | ₹24,000 – 31,000 | ₹34,000 – 44,000 | ₹56,000 – 82,000 |
| 5 nights – Saigon, Cu Chi, Mekong Delta and Phu Quoc | ₹27,000 – 35,000 | ₹38,000 – 50,000 | ₹64,000 – 96,000 |
| 7 nights – Hanoi in, Saigon out: Ha Long, Hoi An, Saigon | ₹42,000 – 53,000 | ₹57,000 – 73,000 | ₹92,000 – 1,38,000 |
| 9 nights – adds Ninh Binh and the Mekong Delta | ₹52,000 – 65,000 | ₹70,000 – 89,000 | ₹1,12,000 – 1,70,000 |
Flights from Hyderabad: as of November 2026, a return economy ticket on either non-stop usually costs about ₹28,000 – 45,000 per person when booked six to eight weeks ahead, once a checked bag is added; an open-jaw on two airlines costs about the same as two halves. Sankranti week, the Dasara holidays and Christmas–New Year can push fares to ₹45,000 – 60,000. One-stop tickets through Bangkok, Singapore or Kuala Lumpur run on any day of the week and are sometimes cheaper, at the cost of four to eight extra hours.
Not in the bands: the e-visa (USD 25, about ₹2,200), the Fansipan cable car if Sapa is added, the Hon Thom cable car on Phu Quoc, water puppet and Hoi An show tickets, meals outside the plan and tips for guides and drivers.
The two RGIA non-stops and how they shape your dates
Timings below are from published schedules as of November 2026. Days and times change each season, so read them as "about"; we confirm the operating flights before quoting.
| Flight | Leaves | Arrives (local) | Days and cabin |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hyderabad – Hanoi, Vietnam Airlines | RGIA about 11.30 pm – midnight | Noi Bai about 4 – 5.30 am | About three a week, listed as Wednesday, Friday and Sunday; economy and business |
| Hanoi – Hyderabad, Vietnam Airlines | Noi Bai about 7 pm | RGIA about 10 pm | Same days; free checked bag on most fares |
| Hyderabad – Ho Chi Minh City, VietJet | RGIA about 11.45 pm | Tan Son Nhat about 5.40 am | About three a week; economy only |
| Ho Chi Minh City – Hyderabad, VietJet | Tan Son Nhat about 7.40 pm | RGIA about 10.30 pm | Same pattern; checked bags usually paid extra |
Time in the air is about four hours each way, and Vietnam is 1½ hours ahead of India. We have not seen a non-stop to Da Nang from Hyderabad in current schedules, so Hoi An and Da Nang are reached by a one-hour domestic flight from Hanoi or Saigon.
What the pattern means for a Hyderabad traveller
- Nights follow flight days. With departures on alternate days, the natural trip lengths are four, five, seven or nine nights. Tell us your leave dates and we will show which combinations of the two airlines fit; sometimes adding one night saves more on the fare than it costs in hotel.
- Hanoi in, Saigon out. Entering on Vietnam Airlines and leaving on VietJet – or the reverse – avoids the two-hour flight back up the country. The tickets are separate, but because the international flights are at the start and end of the trip, a missed connection is not a risk.
- The evening return gives you a full last day. Both flights home leave around 7 – 8 pm, so the final day can include the Cu Chi tunnels or a last walk round Hoan Kiem Lake, and you are home in Banjara Hills or Kondapur by midnight.
- The pre-dawn arrival: we either pay for the first hotel room from the previous night so you can sleep at once, or drive straight from Noi Bai to Ha Long to board a cruise at noon.
- Getting to Shamshabad: for an 11.30 pm flight leave Gachibowli or the Financial District by about 8 pm and Secunderabad, Uppal or Kukatpally by about 7.30 pm. The Outer Ring Road is quick at night, but international check-in closes early.
- Bags on VietJet: its cheapest fares include only a cabin bag. Families who shop in Ben Thanh market or Hoi An's tailor shops should buy checked baggage in advance; it costs far less than at the airport.
Vietnam e-visa for Hyderabad travellers (as of November 2026)
Indian passport holders need a visa for Vietnam, and the government e-visa on evisa.gov.vn is the simplest route: USD 25 for a single entry or USD 50 for multiple entries, valid for a stay of up to 90 days, usually issued in three to five working days.
- Name the right airports: the form asks for your entry and exit points. For an open-jaw trip we enter Noi Bai (Hanoi) and exit Tan Son Nhat (Ho Chi Minh City), or the reverse, exactly as ticketed.
- From you we need: a clear scan of the passport photo page with at least six months' validity beyond return, a recent photo on a white background, and the hotel for the first night.
- Cambodia add-on: Siem Reap and Angkor Wat fit well after Saigon. If you return to Vietnam afterwards, choose the multiple-entry e-visa.
- Apply early before Tet: Vietnam's Lunar New Year, in late January or February, slows processing and fills hotels. For Sankranti travel, apply by mid-December.
We prepare and submit the e-visa; approval is at the discretion of Vietnam's Immigration Department. The full process is in our Vietnam visa guide for Indians.

Central Vietnam is wet and can flood from October to early December, so for a November wedding we replace Da Nang and Hoi An with Phu Quoc. Every itinerary is private, with your own car and guide; extended families and friends from Hyderabad travel as a private group on their own dates.
Sankranti, Dasara and the summer break: Telangana holidays and Vietnam's regions
Vietnam has three climates from north to south. The trick is to send each Telangana holiday to the region that is good at that time.
- Bathukamma and Dasara (late September to mid-October): Telangana schools usually get one of the longest Dasara breaks in India; in 2027 Vijayadashami falls on 9 October. This is the best time for Hanoi and Ha Long – dry, 22 – 28°C – and a poor one for Hoi An, which floods in autumn. Choose the Vietnam Airlines route.
- Sankranti (mid-January): schools close for about a week around Bhogi, Sankranti and Kanuma, with Sankranti on 15 January in 2027. Hanoi is cool and misty then; Saigon and Phu Quoc are dry and warm. The VietJet route and the beaches suit grandparents who dislike cold.
- Christmas and New Year: good for a Hanoi-in, Saigon-out trip that covers both moods. Book by September; this is peak season inside Vietnam too.
- Summer vacation (late April to early June): Hanoi turns hot and stormy, but Da Nang, Hoi An and Ba Na Hills are at their best and the sea is calm. Phu Quoc starts its rainy season from about late May.
- Ramzan and Eid: Ramzan is expected to begin around early February 2027, with Eid around 9 March. Hyderabadi families who want to travel at Eid should book early; it falls just after Vietnam's busy Tet weeks.
Hanoi first or Saigon first?
| If you… | Start with | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Travel at Dasara or in October–November | Hanoi (Vietnam Airlines) | The North is at its driest; the centre is wet |
| Travel at Sankranti with seniors | Saigon (VietJet) | Warm and dry; beaches on Phu Quoc |
| Want Ha Long Bay and Hoi An in one trip | Hanoi in, Saigon out | No backtracking; the most scenery for the nights |
| Need halal food every day | Saigon | Halal restaurants around the District 1 mosques |
| Prefer business class | Hanoi | Only Vietnam Airlines sells it on these routes |
Vietnam month by month for Hyderabad travellers
| Month | Best region | Telangana calendar | Prices |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | South and Phu Quoc; North cool | Sankranti week | High in Sankranti week |
| February | South; Central drying | Wedding season; Ramzan likely begins | Medium; Tet busy inside Vietnam |
| March | All three regions fair | Eid; board exams | Medium |
| April | Central, North still clear | Ugadi; schools close late in the month | Medium |
| May | Central (Da Nang, Hoi An) | Summer vacation, very hot at home | Medium-high |
| June – August | Central only | Schools reopen; Bonalu in July–August | Low |
| September | North improving | Bathukamma begins late in the month | Low to medium |
| October | North at its best | Dasara holidays | High in Dasara week |
| November | North; South drying | Diwali, wedding season starts | Medium |
| December | South; North cold and dry | Christmas break | High from about 20 December |
Food for Hyderabad families: halal, pure-veg and spice
Vietnamese food is fresh, herb-heavy and mild, and pork and fish sauce appear in more dishes than you would guess. That is the main thing Hyderabad travellers need to plan around.
- Halal: Saigon is much easier than Hanoi. The Jamia Al-Muslimin mosque on Dong Du Street in District 1 and the Cham Muslim community around it have halal restaurants and Indian-Muslim kitchens serving curry, roti and rice. Hanoi has a small mosque near the Old Quarter with a few halal places close by. Ha Long cruises and resorts can serve chicken or seafood without pork if told in advance, but they are not certified halal; we say so in writing.
- Biryani: there is no Hyderabadi biryani in Vietnam worth the name. Com ga (chicken rice) and Saigon's broken-rice dishes are the nearest comfort food.
- Pure-veg and Jain: Buddhist "com chay" restaurants cook entirely without meat or fish sauce, and Hanoi, Hoi An and District 1 in Saigon have Indian restaurants with South Indian dishes. Jain meals need notice, which we give each hotel and cruise. Learn two phrases: "an chay" (I eat vegetarian) and "khong nuoc mam" (no fish sauce).
- Spice: Telugu palates find most Vietnamese food bland. Every table has fresh chillies and chilli sauce; many travellers also pack avakaya or gongura pickle and a small box of podi, which make plain rice and pho far more cheerful.
- Temples: Saigon has Hindu temples built by Tamil traders in the colonial era, including the Mariamman temple in District 1, a short walk from Ben Thanh market. Families who like a darshan on holiday can fit it into the city tour.
Practical notes
- Money: about 300 Vietnamese dong to the rupee. Carry VND 2,000,000 – 3,000,000 in cash per couple for markets and tips, plus a forex card; cards work in hotels and malls.
- Weather gear: a warm jacket for Hanoi from December to February; light cottons, sunscreen and a rain jacket for the South.
- Phones: a Viettel or Vinaphone tourist SIM or eSIM at the airport; Grab works for taxis and food in all main cities.

How much does a Vietnam tour package from Hyderabad cost?
Our Vietnam packages currently start at ₹21,999 per person for 3 nights. Most of our Vietnam packages fall between ₹48,000 and ₹70,000 per person. The final cost depends on the travel month, hotel category, number of travellers and whether flights from Hyderabad are added. Open any package below to see exactly what is included, or ask us for a quote with flights.
Is there a direct flight from Hyderabad to Vietnam?
Yes, two. As of November 2026 Vietnam Airlines flies non-stop from RGIA to Hanoi and VietJet flies non-stop to Ho Chi Minh City, each about three times a week. Both leave Hyderabad close to midnight, land before dawn after roughly four hours, and return in the evening. We confirm the days for your dates.
Can I fly into Hanoi and out of Ho Chi Minh City from Hyderabad?
Yes, and it is the route we recommend for a first trip of seven nights or more. You fly Vietnam Airlines into Hanoi and VietJet home from Saigon, or the reverse. The tickets are separate, but since they sit at either end of the trip there is no connection to miss, and you save a domestic flight.
Which days do the Hyderabad–Vietnam flights operate?
Each route runs about three times a week. The Hanoi flight has been listed on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays; the Saigon days vary by season. Airlines change days without much notice, so we check both schedules against your leave and suggest the trip length that fits.
What time do flights from Vietnam land in Hyderabad?
Around 10 to 10.30 pm. The Hanoi flight leaves at about 7 pm local time and the Saigon flight at about 7.40 pm, so your last day in Vietnam is a full one. From Shamshabad you are home in most parts of the city before midnight.
How much does the Vietnam e-visa cost for Hyderabad residents?
As of November 2026, USD 25 for a single entry or USD 50 for multiple entries, valid for up to 90 days and usually issued in three to five working days. We file it on the official portal with the correct entry and exit airports for your tickets; approval is at the discretion of Vietnam's immigration authorities.
Is halal food available in Vietnam?
Yes in Ho Chi Minh City, where the mosque on Dong Du Street in District 1 has halal restaurants and Indian-Muslim kitchens around it. Hanoi has only a few. Cruises and resorts can avoid pork on request but are not certified halal. Muslim families from Hyderabad usually spend more nights in the South for this reason.
Is Vietnam good for the Telangana Dasara holidays?
Yes, if you go north. October is dry and pleasant in Hanoi, Ninh Binh and Ha Long Bay, which suits the Vietnam Airlines route. Avoid Hoi An and Da Nang in October and November, when heavy rain and floods are common. In 2027 Vijayadashami falls on 9 October, so book by July.
How many days are enough for Vietnam from Hyderabad?
Four nights cover Hanoi and an overnight Ha Long cruise; five cover Saigon, the Mekong Delta and Phu Quoc. Seven nights let you fly into Hanoi and out of Saigon with Hoi An in between, and nine add Ninh Binh and the Mekong. The flight days often decide between two lengths.
Is VietJet comfortable for a family trip from Hyderabad?
It is a four-hour night flight on an Airbus A321 with economy seats only. The aircraft are modern, but the cheapest fares include just a cabin bag, and meals are paid. Buy checked baggage in advance, choose seats together, and eat before leaving home. Families wanting business class should use Vietnam Airlines to Hanoi.
Will a Telugu family find Vietnamese food too bland?
Many do at first. Vietnamese cooking relies on herbs, lime and fish sauce rather than chilli and masala, though fresh chillies are on every table. Packing avakaya or gongura pickle and some podi helps a lot. Indian restaurants in Hanoi, Hoi An and Saigon serve dosa, curries and rice.
Do you have an office in Hyderabad?
No. Vibrant Holidays is based in Ahmedabad, and our team plans Hyderabad trips on WhatsApp, phone or video call, Monday to Saturday. The itinerary and quote come as PDFs, payment is online against an invoice, and the e-visa, tickets, cruise and hotel vouchers reach you before you fly.
