What are the penalties for tourists who do not respect the local identity in Vietnam? Are there penalties for failing to warn about the climate conditions in Vietnam for tourists?
I signed up for a tour of the tour company, but when I arrived, the guide did not say that it was very cold and I did not prepare enough warm items so I had a fever, besides, the passengers had a contemptuous attitude and did not respect the local culture of tourism. Can I ask if the above behavior is reported, the tour company and the other passengers are fined and what are the penalties?
