3/ Birding Trips and Bird Watching Tours
June is not a good time for bird watching all over Vietnam: in the North of Vietnam, in the Central Coast, in the Central Highlands and in southern Vietnam. The reason is that it is hot in the North and in the Central Coast, and it is rainy season in the Central Highlands and in southern Vietnam. Most migratory bird species have returned to their resident areas. And most bird species have come into a period of nesting and mating in June.
But for those who can not change your trip to a different time, then it is still possible to observe resident birds in all birding sites in Vietnam. Besides, the rain in the Central Highlands and southern Vietnam in June last 1 or 2 hours per day only, and you can always have the rest of the day for bird watching.

- Yok Don National in Dak Lak Province in the Central Highlands of Vietnam: among the best places in Vietnam for birding, bird watching.
- Da Lat, Bidoup Nui Ba National Park, Deo Nui Sam at Di Linh (Lam Dong, Central Highlands) : among the best places in Vietnam for birding and bird-watching tours, highly rich in endemic bird species.
- Cat Tien National Park (Dong Nai, Southern Vietnam) : June is among the best places in Vietnam for birding and bird watching.
4/ Family Tours
Generally speaking, families should have a great time traveling in Vietnam in June if you only travel in the lowland in the North, in the Central Coast and in southern Vietnam. June is not a good time for family holidays in the far northern mountains because rainy weather may pose dangers such as flash floods, landslides, rockslides.
5/ Island Holidays
June is a great time to make trips to the islands in Vietnam. The reason is the sea is often not rough, and sea exploration tours are operational due to the weather. The temperatures are also perfect on islandsin Vietnam in June. Be warned that there may be typhoons/cyclones,hurricanes in northern Vietnam in June which may disrupt boat trips between the inland and the islands.
