Da Nang and Phu Quoc emerge as top picks for Indian travelers, offering iconic landmarks, luxury experiences, and seamless connectivity in Vietnam.
Da Nang has emerged as the top choice for Indian travelers, according to Skyscanner India’s travel trend reports. Known for its stunning beaches, short flight distances, and relaxing ambiance, Da Nang perfectly aligns with the preferences of Indian tourists seeking a blend of natural beauty and cultural experiences.
In the first nine months of 2024 alone, Da Nang welcomed over 151,000 Indian visitors, representing 43% of all Indian arrivals in Vietnam. This marked a staggering 125% increase compared to the same period in 2023, reflecting its growing popularity.
Direct Flights Boost Accessibility
To cater to the surging demand, direct flights from India to Da Nang have been expanded. In October 2024, a direct Ahmedabad-Da Nang route with twice-weekly flights was launched, complementing existing services from New Delhi and increasing connectivity for Indian tourists.
Iconic Attractions: Golden Bridge and Beyond
Da Nang’s iconic Sun World Ba Na Hills and its famed Golden Bridge have become must-visit landmarks for Indian travelers. Featured by major Indian media outlet Luxebook as one of the world’s most iconic bridges, the Golden Bridge captivates visitors with its stunning design and serene mountain backdrop.
For families like Muskan Tiwari’s from Ahmedabad, visiting the Golden Bridge is a lifelong dream. The surrounding Ba Na Hills offer more than just iconic views – its vibrant castles, cool climate, and peaceful atmosphere leave an unforgettable impression.
By July 2024, nearly 132,000 Indian tourists visited Sun World Ba Na Hills, accounting for nearly 50% of all Indian arrivals to Vietnam during the first seven months of the year.
Culinary Experiences Catered to Indian Tastes
Food is a significant factor in travel decisions for Indian tourists, many of whom travel with specific dietary needs. Ba Na Hills addresses these preferences with a Halal-certified buffet restaurant, ensuring Indian visitors can enjoy familiar flavors and diverse cuisines in a comfortable setting.
Additional Highlights: Beaches and Natural Wonders
Da Nang’s globally renowned My Khe Beach, the dramatic Dragon Bridge water and fire shows, and the pristine beauty of Son Tra Peninsula round out its appeal, making it a versatile destination for Indian travelers.
Phu Quoc: Vietnam’s Luxury Wedding and MICE Paradise
While Da Nang continues to draw Indian tourists, Phu Quoc is gaining traction as a premier destination for luxury weddings and Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE). The island’s stunning beaches, upscale resorts, and competitive pricing make it especially attractive to South Asian visitors.
A Favorite for Billionaire Indian Weddings
Phu Quoc’s allure is evident in its hosting of high-profile Indian weddings. Venues like JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay have become iconic, hosting events such as billionaire Rushang Shah’s wedding in 2019 and another grand wedding in 2024.
Emerging MICE Destination
Phu Quoc is also carving out a niche in the MICE sector.

Large venues such as Sun Signature Gallery and Sun Tropical Ballroom cater to events hosting up to 1,000 guests.
New Developments: Golf and Connectivity
The recent unveiling of the world-class 18-hole Eschuri Vung Bau Golf Course, with breathtaking sunset views, adds to Phu Quoc’s appeal. Direct flights between Da Nang and Phu Quoc, along with upcoming routes from other cities, are set to enhance accessibility, making Vietnam an even more attractive destination for Indian travelers.
