Vietnam grants e-visas for citizens of all countries and territories with 90-day stay duration and valid for multiple entry.
Vietnam is generally safe but there is petty crime and scams in some of the more touristy locations. If you check your home countries travel advisories then you will probably see a warning issued with a high level of risk noted for Vietnam. At Xpolorist we are well-healed travellers and quite often the situation on the ground is much different. There are good and bad people everywhere but socio-economic pressures and changing political landscapes in countries can change things quickly.
