The Vietnam National Administration of Tourism has reported that the number of international visitors to Vietnam in the first nine months of 2022 reached only 33 per cent of the annual target of 5 million. At a seminar on developing the international tourist market held recently by the Khanh Hoa Provincial Department of Tourism in Vietnam’s south-central region, analysts said it is necessary to combine many solutions.

The number of Vietnamese traveling in their home country has been booming this summer, increasing 300 per cent compared to 2019. Many local destinations are bursting at the seams as people continue to forego overseas travel in favor of somewhere closer to home. Many travel companies have reported already reaching 60-70 per cent of their summer plans.
