So, decided to be in South east Asia and of course Vietnam is one of those places that shakes everyone head to think of it, A bustling streets of Ho Chi Minh City, the charm of Hanoi or the maze lines of the Ancient Hue and Hoi an, all and all makes anyone to think of having a Vietnam Package Tours when in south east of Asia. Eating delicious Tropical fresh fruit is one of the great joys of travelling in Vietnam. melting and refreshing in the heat of the day, a huge range of options for Tropical fresh fruits can be found, small and sweet, cumbersome and stinky or large and luscious. Vietnam has them all. 
Finally, you got your Visa to Vietnam and you started enjoying your Vietnam Experience, When in a restaurant in anywhere in Vietnamese cities, you’ll usually be served a combination of papaya, banana, pineapple, and either melon or mango, depending on what’s in season. Bicycle riders side-carts with pre-cut iced bags of fruit are common and convenient; simply flag one down, and point to pick. They often sell both ripe seasonal fruit and under-ripe fruits like mango, to be dipped in a reviving mix of salt, sugar and chilli powder. Wooden carts parked at the side of the road are also easy to come by, and will always offer seasonal varieties priced. The prices are often inflated somewhat for foreigners, so feel free to haggle your bargain.
If you want to buy the fruits in the markets then the markets offer the greatest variety of Tropical fresh fruits with the most competitive prices. Fruit is priced by the kilo,  Mot Kilo is one kilo In Vietnamese, Bananas are the only fruit not sold by the kilo, with a bunch costing around 10,000 to 20,000 Vietnamese Dong 9 That's the price in the daily Markets.

Apples, grapes and Pomegranates are available in many places, They tend to be expensive and sub-standard, so going for local species, like year-round-available Na ( Kind of Vietnamese Fruit), is usually a better choice.
During the cool months from late November to February, citrus is in season, and pomelos are sold everywhere. This cousin to the grapefruit is much larger, with thicker skin and less intense flavour. The segments need to be individually peeled, but many places sell them pre-peeled for 35,000 Per Kilo, just check that they’re fresh (Usually are) . Tangerines are also in season during these months, and the smaller they are, the sweeter and juicier they are. These tend to be very cheap.
The high season for Tropical fresh fruits in Vietnam is April to July. It begins with longon, a small round mustard-coloured relative to the lychee. Starting May you’ll find honey mangoes at around 20.0000 Vietnamese Dong (VND), which are so creamy you can simply cut them in half and eat them with a spoon. Mangosteens are another must-try. These small purple fruits have tough skin, but the little white segments inside have a sweet flavor like no other fruit. The best mangosteens aren’t too hard; the skin should give a little bit when you squeeze it. Lychees are sweet and juicy, while their techni-colored spiky cousin, the rambutan, is meatier and not as sugary.
In Vietnam, Dragonfruit is available most of the year. This flamboyant fruit wins for best presentation, although its flavour is a little less impressive and can taste like a bland kiwifruit. Pomegranates are available, but tend to be lighter and sweeter than the deep red tangy ones available in other parts of the world. Pineapples are also available all year.

Melons are available most of the year, mostly watermelon and also honeydew and cantaloupe. They tend to be rather watery, and you’ll be hard pressed to find one with much flavour. In shake form, however, watermelons are a seriously good source of refreshment.
Finally, of course, there’s durian. Renowned for its controversial smell, it is nonetheless called the king of fruits, and people tend to feel strongly toward it one way or another. Emitting a stench of something wholly rotten, encased in a spiky green skin, its rich and creamy flesh is like a toasted marshmallow seasoned with onion, irresistible to some and utterly repugnant to others. While sold in chunks similar to the jackfruit, your nose will let you know what you’re looking at.

With any fruit you buy whole, wash it before cutting it up; peel it as well. If you leave it in a plastic bag for an extended period of time, put the bag in a sink of water or ants will likely sniff it out. A final piece of advice: don’t fall asleep with fruit juice on your face.
