Hanoi experiences rainfall for the majority of the year. Monsoon is an off-season to visit Hanoi by travellers. The weather is a bit bitter during this time, as it rains heaviest in August. This season may not be the best in terms of weather conditions and exploring the different outdoor attractions in Hanoi. Therefore, if you are planning to visit Hanoi during this time, make sure to check the weather forecast in advance and carry raincoat and other monsoon essentials.

Hanoi in winter is the most preferred season to visit by travellers. November is the best month to visit the city as it lights up with colourful lanterns and lively dragon dances signalling the start of the Vietnamese Mid-Autumn festival.

Heer's 13 days trip to Hanoi

Overall it was good. If the travel triangle people were more interactive then the agents… the holiday could be more comfortable. There was lots of confusion where agent forgot to book hotel and was asking us last home to share hotel cost. Miscommunication on billing amount. All this could have been avalided if travel triangle concerned employee was more interactive and involved. I had to ask again and again to her to connect. Ninh binh day trip with Indian food

Sachin's 8 days trip to Hanoi

I had booked my travel (Sightseeing and Local Transfers) with Trang of Golden Footstep and would say it was one of the best decisions for the Trip. Her arrangements and updates to customer were to the point. She ensured I had a comfortable experience during my travel. I am glad to choose Travel Triangle and it's affiliated partner Golden Footstep for this trip and helping me making it memorable and hassle free. There were not just one but every part of the journey was memorable right from my 1st destination that was Phu Quoc to Ha Noi, Ba na hills was the best of the lot along with 3 island tour at phu quoc.
