In 2019, Vietnam was among the ten countries with the fastest tourism growth in the world, with more than 18 million international visitors and 85 million domestic visitors.

Golf tourism, wellness tourism, and wedding tourism have a lot of potential for development in Vietnam.

January started on a positive note, with city hotels seeing increased MICE and event bookings, while in some resorts corporate bookings started to return, according to Savills Vietnam.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism will develop tourism into a spearhead by 2030, creating impetus to boost the growth of other industries, and making significant contributions to shaping a modern economy.

Tourism is likely to become Vietnam’s new growth pillar, increasing its contribution to the service sector and overall GDP.
