Pick Italy 🇮🇹 if you're going in…

April, May, August, September

Many small towns and restaurants close in Aug when Italians take their holidays.

Pick Vietnam 🇻🇳 if you're going in…

January, February, March, July, November, December

Don't try the whole country in monsoon swing months (Sep–Oct) — coastal weather is unreliable.

Months where both are equally good: June, October.
