September was a booming month for searches, with an 84% increase year-on-year as international travelers were scrambling to find destinations for the Christmas and New Year holidays.
Data from the Agoda platform shows that Vietnam tourism is experiencing many positive changes as the number of searches for this destination from international tourists has increased sharply in the past three months of travel.
If July saw searches for Vietnam increase by only 4% year-on-year, August data began to record a strong 31% growth in travel interest.
Notably, September saw a surge in searches with an 84% increase year-on-year as international travelers were scrambling to find destinations for the Christmas and New Year holidays.
Agoda's data on the rising trend of accommodation searches is completely similar to the data released by the General Statistics Office: The number of tourists coming to Vietnam in the first 9 months of 2024 is 43% higher than the same period in 2023. With 12.7 million international visitors, this number has surpassed the total number of visitors for the whole year of 2023.
In particular, tourist interest in key areas in northern Vietnam remains positive following the damage caused by Typhoon Yagi , which made landfall on September 7.
Accordingly, the number of room searches on Agoda shows that the number of check-ins from August to October 2024 at popular destinations in Vietnam such as Hanoi, Sapa, Ha Giang, Ha Long Bay, Hai Phong and Cat Ba all grew strongly compared to the same period in 2023, reflecting stable interest in these locations.
“We expect the number of tourists in October and the end of this year to increase as this is the beginning of the peak international tourist season and also the peak months for families to travel together to end the year. Agoda believes that tourists will gradually return to these destinations once the post-storm cleanup work is completed,” said Vu Ngoc Lam, Country Director of Agoda Vietnam.
