Get vaccinated especially if you are a long term traveler, for this; consult with your local clinic in your home country. Also, most of the tourists combine their Holiday in Vietnam and either Cambodia and or Laos, so, if you do it, then work on your plan and find out where to start and when to finish, my suggestion is to land in Hanoi and travel from the length of the Vietnam to Cambodia and then finish your Indochina holiday in Luang Prabang, Laos.
