"A land of staggering natural beauty and cultural complexities, of dynamic megacities and hill-tribe villages, Vietnam is both exotic and compelling." Lonely Planet
Vietnam is a land of challenging myths and stunning scenic beauty. It is also the land of smiles, warm hospitality and generosity. You'll get to sample that hospitality and the best food in South-east Asia on a truly immersive tour experience.
You'll start in Hanoi, Vietnam's capital for close on a thousand years. It’s a small, absorbing city of pagodas and dynastic temples, where life proceeds at a gentle pace. From here you’ll strike out east to the labyrinth of limestone outcrops in Ha Long Bay where you'll cruise for two days.
Your journey then takes you to the commercial southern city of Ho Chi Minh City, the rice fields and orchards of the nearby Mekong Delta, Hoi An and the temple ruins at My Son. These and the other destinations on this itinerary are certain to make you want to return for more one day.
