According to data from the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism, Italy is among the top 10 best-performing growth markets in 2024, with visitor numbers reaching 155% compared to 2023. The elimination of the need to transit through a third country will enhance the experience and also create motivation for a significant increase in the number of visitors from Italy to Vietnam in the coming years.
