Good Resource
Lots of tips in the book, great to use as a guide of what to do in each country. I planned a 3 week trip and used this a lot to help me decide where to get.

Good overview
Although I acknowledge the guide combines three diverse countries and thus it cannot be very extensive, I would have liked some more info and details on alternative options for the countryside.

Reliable and informative, as always
I have quite a few Lonely Planet guides and they never disappoint. This Vietnam edition is no different, itโs clear, informative, and packed with useful tips. It covers a wide range of destinations and practical info, and the format makes it easy to take with you while travelling. One small thing Iโd love to see in future editions is a bit more background or curiosity about the places themselves, more of a travel guide to the culture and sights rather than so much focus on hotels and restaurants, especially since itโs now so easy to find those online. Still, itโs a fantastic resource and a great companion for anyone planning a trip.
