Just two or three years ago a tour of South Korea cost VND20 million (US$857) or more and the cheapest tour to Japan was VND30 million.

Now tours to South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and the Chinese mainland cost just a little more than to Southeast Asian countries, the manager of a travel company in HCM City said.

A five-day tour to South Korea costs VND11.5-12 million while a four-day trip to Japan costs VND21-22 million.

Some travel firms even offer low-cost tours to South Korea and Taiwan at a mere VND8-9 million.
