Adventure Travel, Nature Tours, Bird Watching Tours, Photo Tours in Vietnam in June
1/ Hiking Tours, Mountain Trekking Tours
June is not a good time for hiking tours or mountain trekking trips. The temperatures could be too hot or it could rain anytime anywhere in Vietnam in June. In the far north of Vietnam, the temperatures may be pleasant sometimes but the rain could come anytime which makes hiking trails just slippery and muddy. The Central Highlands are the same.
2/ Adventure Tours
The lowland of Northern Vietnam including Hanoi, Halong Bay and Ninh Binh could be a good place for general adventure tours as the temperatures are more likely to be tolerable and the rain, if any, should not last that long. It is more likely to have sunshine in most of the month. There may be a typhoon/tropical depression or two in northern Vietnam in June which may disrupt travel in the region for a couple of days each time.
Be careful if you venture into the mountainous regions with history of rockslides or landslides if the rain is heavy. On some days it may be hot with strong sun, then be prepared to drink enough water and to avoid traveling at mid day in strong sunshine.
In the Central Coast of Vietnam it is more likely to be strong sun with high temperatures exceeding 36-37oC most of the time. It may rain in the mountainous regions posing threats of landslides and rockslides. If you plan a general adventure tours by car in the coastal regions, then you should have a good time.
In the Central Highlands, you get daily shortlived rain and pleasant temperatures. Most of the time you should get nice adventure holidays in the region in June.
Southern Vietnam is to experience pleasant or tolerable temperatures most of the month. There is daily short-lived rain which makes the air refreshing. But exercise extreme caution traveling in the rain as streets in cities are temporarily flooded always and sewage system with uncovered openings pose serious dangers. Accidents and fatal accidents resulted from people swept into sewers with strong running water have happened.
3/ Birding Trips and Bird Watching Tours
June is not a good time for birding trips in Vietnam. In northern Vietnam it is the nesting and mating season and the birds are not that visible. In the Central Highlands and Southern Vietnam, you can still observe several bird species but more species are to be spotted during the dry season. Sudden rain in the North and in the Central Coast, daily rain in the Central Highlands and in southern Vietnam June also affect your birding trips slightly.
Birding sites in Vietnam in June :
- Cuc Phuong National Park (Ninh Binh) : : resident birds mostly.

- Da Lat, Bidoup Nui Ba National Park, Deo Nui Sam at Di Linh (Lam Dong, Central Highlands) : Birding at Da Lat and other sites in Lam Dong Province is still possible in June, but this is not the best time anyway.
- Cat Tien National Park (Dong Nai, Southern Vietnam) : June is not the best time for birdwatching at Cat Tien National Park but you will still be able to observe several bird species as well as primates.

6/ Beach Vacations
In Northern Vietnam, Sam Son Beach or the beaches on islands in Northern Vietnam have calm sea and pleasant temperatures with lovely sunshine mostly.
And those beaches in the South of the Central Coast have sunny weather mostly with pleasant or sometimes warm temperatures.
If you travel to Southern Vietnam then you June try Vung Tau Beach, Long Hai Beach and Ho Tram Beach (all in Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province). You can have pleasant temperatures mostly with beautifully bright sunshine.
