Special Tet tours designed to meet incresing demand
Therefore, many agencies have launched
specialised and private tours to meet their growing demand, according to
the People’s Army online newspaper.
The most popular tour is

Company, in which visitors will be taken to flower villages and a
southern spring flower fair, or enjoy a homestay to learn how to make
cylindrical glutinous rice cakes, and purchase traditional Tet gifts in
localities.
All Tet tours are expected to grow over 30 percent on
