The upcoming Lunar New Year festival has generated so much business for tourist companies operating in Ho Chi Minh City that many have already stopped offering further services for the month-long festivities.

The number of tourists registering for travel during Tet has already exceeded 8,000 in some big companies.

Most tourists going out of the country are heading to Hong Kong , Thailand , Malaysia and Singapore . Popular domestic tourist spots include Nha Trang, Da Lat and Phu Quoc. This year, the number of overseas Vietnamese coming back is up 30 percent.
