#Health Information for Travelers to Vietnam - Traveler view

Vaccines and Medicines

You should be up to date on routine vaccinations while traveling to any destination. Some vaccines may also be required for travel.

Get travel vaccines and medicines because there is a risk of these diseases in the country you are visiting.

Ask your doctor what vaccines and medicines you need based on where you are going, how long you are staying, what you will be doing, and if you are traveling from a country other than the US.

When traveling in Vietnam, you should avoid mosquito bites to prevent malaria. You may need to take prescription medicine before, during, and after your trip to prevent malaria, depending on your travel plans, such as where you are going, when you are traveling, and if you are spending a lot of time outdoors or sleeping outside. Talk to your doctor about how you can prevent malaria while traveling. For more information on malaria in ... Read more »

#How to land student travel deals (even if you - re not a student)

Whether it’s to party on Spring Break, visit family for the holidays or volunteer during a summer abroad, student travel has become an essential part of the college experience — but it doesn’t have to break your college student budget.

#How to Use the Sharing Economy to Travel on a Budget

February 18, 2014 / By NomadicMatt

The Internet has changed travel. Sometimes hasn’t been for the better (one just needs to see how many people are checking Facebook in a hostel to agree) but it has allowed people to share, connect, and collaborate in ways that haven’t been possible before.

And for the budget traveler and culture enthusiast this change has been terrific. There are now so many more ways to travel on a budget as well as get the most out of your destination and learn the hidden secrets of the places you are visiting. Here are some top notch sites and services (some old, some new) that you can use to travel cheap and connect with locals.

Hospitality networks have been around for decades but were really popularized with the creation of Couchsurfing. Founded in 2004, this old standby really took advantage of the web and brought together travelers and locals. It connects travelers with locals w ... Read more »

#How to Travel to Paris - Italy

Paris and Italy are dream tourist destinations for many travelers. They both feature a rich history with centuries of art and architecture among the best attractions. If you are lucky enough to make it to Paris, you could make room in your itinerary for a trip to Italy as well, which is a day's train ride from Paris. A trip to both places can include a visit to the famous Louvre Museum in Paris or the Colosseum in Rome. A passport is required for entry into these foreign countries and a visa may be required for extended stays.

Step 1

Select the season to travel that is best for your budget and travel preferences. Summer days are longer and lengthen the sightseeing hours, but summer is the busiest and most expensive time to travel; winter is the slow tourism season and features cheaper rates, but the w ... Read more »

#Jamaica - Lonely Planet

Jamaica has long been a jewel in the Caribbean tourism industry crown, but there’s far more to discover than just beaches and all-inclusive resorts.

Island Riddims

With Bob Marley, Jamaica gifted us the first global superstar from the developing world. But he didn’t spring from nowhere – this tiny island has musical roots that reach back to the folk songs of West Africa and forward to the electronic beats of contemporary dancehall. Simply put, Jamaica is a musical powerhouse, a fact reflected not just in the bass of the omnipresent sound systems, but in the lyricism of the patois language and the gospel sounds from the island’s many churches. Music is life in Jamaica, and you’ll soon find yourself swaying along with it.

Jah’s Garden

Ask any expat Jamaican what they miss about their island, and the answer is inevitably the landscape itself, that great green garden that constitutes one of the most beautiful islands of the Ca ... Read more »

U.S. News Travel U.S. News & World Report Travel

Booking a flight online can be an aggravating process. After checking for discounts, figuring out the best time to fly, deciding which route to take and making sure the price is right, you're still left wondering if you scored the cheapest fare.

I've booked more than 100 flights since 2012, including a $22 flight from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to Singapore; a $27 fare from Seoul, South Korea to Osaka, Japan; and a $44 flight from Copenhagen, Denmark to Helsinki.

There's no question that affordable flights are out there, but they won't come knocking on your door; you'll have to do some research.

#Hotels in Bermuda

Few places in the world boast the charm of Bermuda's curvaceous, colorful shoreline. It's a boon, then, that the lagoons, coves, and coasts, as well as its inland sanctuaries, are filled with equally colorful, alluring places to stay. But wherever you opt to stay, you are never far away from picture-perfect water views. The quintessential accommodation on the island is a pink cottage amid

manicured gardens and coral-stone pathways. Terraced whitewashed roofs (designed to capture rainwater) sit atop walls of pinks, peaches, and pastels, looking like cakes of ice cream in pink-wafer sand. Add a waterfront setting, and voilà—the lure of Bermuda.

If you find yourself craving a beachfront resort, and you can afford it, several places offer quality right-on-the-sand stays; another handful are a stone's throw away from the beach. The island is blessed with clean, well-maintained public beaches that are easily reached by bus and aren't far from any point o ... Read more »

#Indonesia - Lonely Planet

Indonesia's numbers astound: 17,000 islands (or is it 20,000?), of which 8000 are inhabited (or is it 11,000?), 300 languages spoken (or is it 400?). Yet it's all one country with myriad adventures.

Great Adventure

This ever-intriguing, ever-intoxicating land holds some of the last great adventures on earth. Sitting in the open door of a train whizzing across Java. idling away time on a ferry bound for Kalimantan. hanging on to the back of a scooter on Flores or simply trekking through wilderness you’re sure no one has seen before – you’ll enjoy endless exploration of the infinite diversity of Indonesia’s 17,000 islands.

Beaches & Volcanoes

Venturing through the islands of Indonesia you’ll see a land as diverse and unusual as those living upon it. Look at Sulawesi on a map and you’ll save yourself the cost of a Rorschach test.

#Iceland - Lonely Planet

The energy is palpable on this magical island, where astonishing natural phenomena inspire the welcoming, creative locals and draw an increasing number of visitors in search of splendour.

Why I Love Iceland

By Carolyn Bain, Author

It's hard to answer this without either gushing embarrassingly, or resorting to clichés (OK, I'll admit it, Iceland makes me want to grow up to become a birdwatching vulcanologist who plays in a band). Like everyone, on my first visit l was awestruck by the landscapes. On subsequent visits, the beauty of those same landscapes can still reduce me to tears – but the locals are what affirm my love for Iceland. Their resourcefulness, quirkiness, interconnectedness and warmth is unparalleled; on this research trip, every day presented human stories and interactions that rivaled Icelandic nature for beauty.

#How to Get the Cheapest Price on Airfare

(Reuters)

Airfare tends to be the most cost-prohibitive part of planning a vacation or trip. And with delayed flights, over-crowded cabins, excess fees and no free food, it’s surprising that airlines are able to charge such high tickets prices.

During the course of a day, prices fluctuate depending on availability. “Airfare is the most volatile part of traveling compared to the price of hotels or cruises,” says Gabe Saglie, senior editor at Travelzoo.

Despite the abundance of metasearch engines, like Kayak, Google Flights, or Fly.com, and online travel agencies (OTAs), finding the lowest-priced airfare is still a tedious process. “There’s not one place or website where you can find the absolute lowest price,” says John DiScala, editor in chief of JohnnyJet.com. “It changes every minute and it takes time to find the cheapest price.”

To simplify your search, setting up daily or weekly price alerts will help yo ... Read more »

#Vietnam Travel Guide and Travel Information

Some destinations evoke mental images the moment their names are mentioned, and Vietnam is one of them. A frenetic and fascinating country, it calls to mind conical-hatted street vendors, water buffalo plodding across rice fields, mopeds buzzing through cities and floating markets on the Mekong River.

The days when Vietnam was best known for its conflict with America are long gone. From the temples of Hanoi and the islands of Halong Bay to the beaches of Nha Trang and the palaces of Hue, it is a country now firmly etched in the travel psyche.

At times, Vietnam is an assault on the senses. Life in its feverish cities is conducted largely on the streets, among chattering bia hois (pavement pubs) and steaming pho (noodle soup) stands. The country s two main cities Hanoi in the north, Ho Chi Minh in the south are different in many ways, but they share an intoxicating energy. Ancient pagodas and colonial house ... Read more »
