Current Travel Situation
Grenada to Vietnam: What You Need to Know
Vietnam extended its e-Visa facility to Grenadian citizens as part of a broad liberalization of its tourism visa policy. Vietnam has actively sought to attract Commonwealth Caribbean travelers by making entry as straightforward as possible. The e-Visa replaced the former Visa on Arrival letter system and can be obtained entirely online. Vietnam is one of Southeast Asia fastest-growing tourism destinations, renowned for its cuisine, World Heritage sites (Hoi An, Ha Long Bay), and affordability.
How to Get There
Fly from Grenada (GND) via Barbados to New York or London, then Vietnam Airlines, Cathay Pacific via Hong Kong, or Singapore Airlines via Singapore to Hanoi (HAN) or Ho Chi Minh City (SGN). Journey time: 24 to 32 hours. Within Vietnam, VietJet Air and Bamboo Airways offer cheap domestic flights; night trains connect Hanoi, Hue, Da Nang, and Ho Chi Minh City.
Money & Banking
Vietnam uses the Vietnamese Dong (VND). ATMs are widely available in cities and tourist areas. Cards accepted at major hotels and restaurants; cash essential for street food, markets, and smaller guesthouses. Daily budget: USD 40 to 80 (Vietnam is one of Asia best value destinations). Tipping: not traditionally practiced but now expected in tourist restaurants (10 percent is fine).
Practical Tips
Apply at least 1 week before travel to allow processing time. Print the e-Visa approval and carry it with your passport. Entry is permitted through major airports (Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang) and designated land/sea borders. Multiple-entry e-Visas are also available. Motorbike taxis (Grab) are the fastest and cheapest way around Vietnamese cities. Emergency: 113 (police) or 115 (ambulance).
