Although this holiday sticks to the well-known parts of Vietnam, we'll ensure you get further under the surface of each destination than you would with a typical package holiday. Hotels are carefully thought through to ensure comfort, value and family friendliness. Experiences are well-timed, fun, informative and interactive. This ensures you can relax and enjoy a shared sense of discovery as you travel from the North to the South.

Highlights include

Varied transport to keep things interesting: an overnight train journey along the coast, Hoi An's countryside on the back of a Vespa bike, a secret side of Hue by bike.
Interactive learning, discovering history and tradition through ancient calligraphy, traditional noodle making, water puppets, food tours, and more.
Time to relax as everything is taken care of. All hotels have swimming pools and are in convenient locations, tours are well paced and you'll have family-friendly guides throughout.

As with our suggested itineraries, we can tailor-make your holiday to suit your budget, style and expectations. Please find out about our exclusive Journey Planner here.

Day 1 Depart The UK

Depart the UK on an overnight flight to Hanoi.

Day 2-5 Hanoi & Halong Bay

Hanoi is alive with culture, history and local day-to-day life bustling around you. Get lost in the hidden alleyways of the old quarter and see how life goes by along Hanoi's railway tracks. Taste some of the street food for which Hanoi is famous on a tour with a local expert too.

Transfer to picture-postcard Halong Bay, where you'll board a small junk for an overnight adventure, cruising around the dramatic scenery of limestone karsts.

Day 6-12 Overnight Train, Hue & Hoi An

Transfer from Halong Bay to Hanoi train station and board the overnight train south to Hue - with a private four-berth cabin.

Hue has a vibrant and young feel but is small and quiet, so it's easy to explore. It's home to magnificent ruins, including the citadel and Imperial City. If a guided tour sounds dangerously educational for some, don't worry; we’ll keep it fun and interactive. A cycle ride into the countryside to visit one of Hue's ancient garden houses will showcase a side of the city that few tourists experience.

The journey between Hue and Hoi An is fantastic – the road has phenomenal views, and the coastline is breathtaking, particularly over the Cloudy Pass. Once in Hoi An, we include a tour into the countryside on the back of a Vespa and an exploration of the town itself that finishes with lunch and noodle making at Streets restaurant - one of our ETG Give Back experiences.

Days 13 &14 Saigon

Take a morning flight down to bustling Ho Chi Minh City, where we include an interactive guided scavenger hunt around the city's main sites and a morning trip to the Cu Chi Tunnels.

**This 2-week itinerary can easily be extended or changed to include a beach stay. Different beach destinations work at different times of the year and we recommend talking to our travel experts who will recommend the best resort for your holiday.

Day 15 Fly Home

Depart Vietnam for your flight home to the UK.

As every holiday is bespoke, prices vary. To give you an idea, our holidays typically cost between £4,500 and £8,000 per adult depending on trip length and time of year and the hotels and flights involved. Child and seasonal discounts may bring the price lower than this. You can read our ultimate guide to holiday costs in Asia for more in-depth information.
