Vietnam holidays witha touch of adventure

Vietnam - the very best of Southeast Asia, in one sensational holiday experience: outrageously delicious food, heaven-sent beach life, heaven-scented, sticky, tropical adventure and extraordinary natural beauty. But let’s not rush things here. In fact, let’s not ever rush things. With endless options, you’ve time to take your time.

So how about unwinding on the gorgeous beaches of Hoi An or Nha Trang?

Or taking a moment out in astonishing Halong Bay, or tucked away Ninh Binh?

And why follow in others' footsteps when you can journey away from the crowd - deep into the Mekong Delta or Phong Na-Ke Bang National Park?  And of course, there’s always time for a little crazy Vietnam too - city scooters, Bai Hoi Corner and scorpions on a stick. Whatever blend of adventure and downtime works for you, however you define your luxury, we’ll create an experience to match. No rush - just reward.

We had a fantastic experience from booking the trip to enjoying it when the time came. I was very excited for our children to learn about different cultures, foods and see how people live in different countries. Our trip ticked every box and more and would highly recommend traveling from Vietnam to Cambodia to anyone that loves to explore.

- Joanne & Family

From the moment we landed in Vietnam to the second we left, we made magical family memories. We left some of our hearts in Vietnam. The people, the culture and the experiences ETG pulled together made our whole experience unforgettable. They took care of everything. Listened to what we like in a holiday, encouraged us to think broadly, and surpassed all expectations with their local relationships and ensured we were looked after.

- Alison & Family

ETG created a bespoke tour which was perfectly tailored to our budget, energy levels and interests. The trip was packed full of incredibly memorable and immersive experiences, curated by ETG. We came away refreshed and inspired, and having made some wonderful memories as a family. They hand-picked hotels and experiences which were loved by teens and parents alike.

BEST OF BOTH WORLDS: HOLIDAYS IN VIETNAM & CAMBODIA

Why choose between a Vietnam or Cambodia holiday when you can have them both? The perfect travel companions. Atmospheric temples, beautiful beaches, flavours to die for and that unique ambience reserved only for the tropics. Unlike most package holidays to Vietnam and Cambodia that tend to rush travellers through the experience, we share experiences to be savoured.

So if you like it slooooow, then a leisurely overland voyage from Cambodia to Vietnam via the Mekong could be perfect. And if you like it slooooow, luxury and family, then take a look at our Family Luxury Indochina tour - it’s a kind of magic.

FOODIE HOLIDAYS IN VIETNAM

Edible Vietnam - oh go on then. There is nothing, and we mean nothing, in this whole wide world, more delicious than fresh Vietnamese street food. You already know that. Everyone knows that. But do you know the best street? The best stall? The stallholder’s name? The stall holder’s signature dish? We do. Pho sure. We’ll take you there on our legendary Hanoi street food tour.

Holidays by foodies for foodies, we’ve got the inside track on all the most excellent Vietnamese delicacies; the restaurants, the street food stalls, even private kitchens - your private guide pleased to lead the way. Or what about learning to cook your own Vietnamese dishes with a cooking class in Hoi An. Get in touch today, and let’s talk food.

We’re not going to brag, we’re not the bragging type, but we do actually know all the best places to eat in Vietnam. Dig in during our Essential Vietnam with a culinary twist holiday.

It’s amazing how many life-changing friendships are forged from a simple conversation out on the street.

We’re more than happy to leave the conventional to the conventional.

We like to turn left when others turn right to reveal a new perspective on this captivating country.

HANDPICKED HOTELS IN VIETNAM

There’s perfect and there’s perfect. Of course, perfect depends on what perfect means to you. At ETG we’re perfectly pleased to be able to offer a whole range of hotels across a complete range of perfects. From old-world luxury in the form of Hanoi’s finest colonial-era hotel the Sofitel Legend Metropole to quality beach holiday hotels, Six Senses Con Dao, Ninh Van Bay or Amanoi - all absolutely top notch.

For a family homestay experience, then Mango Home might be exactly what you’re looking for. To make life a little easier, our experts have put together an edit of tried-and-tested hotels in Vietnam - whether first or last on the list your perfect hotel is sure to be in there somewhere.

Once-in-a-Lifetime Experiences in Vietnam

Overflowing with once-in-a-lifetime experiences, there’s surely no better place in the world to mark a special occasion, spend a little time with loved ones or simply explore for exploration's sake. For anyone interested in the Vietnam War (the American War, as it’s known in Vietnam), then the Cu Chi tunnels are an absolute must. And of course, no trip to Vietnam is complete without a riverboat journey down the evocative Mekong. 

If you want to up the pace a little, then a Vespa ride from Hoi An to Hue is a great way to soak up the coastal scenery. And if you want to slow it down a notch, mosey around ancient Hue, Vietnam’s imperial city, or stroll the beaches of Hoi An or Phu Quoc. A bit peckish? There’s no shortage of mouthwatering foodie experiences, from cookery classes to street food tours, in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. 

And if you love landscapes, then explore the astonishing limestone karsts of Halong Bay (or, for insiders, Ninh Binh is just as beautiful but half as busy). 

Or what about a bit of everything, a range of experiences? Or even combine experience in Vietnam and Cambodia (like the majestic temples of Angkor) - it’s your call.

IMPORTANT TRAVEL INFORMATION FOR VIETNAM

First things first - peace of mind. It’s why we provide 100% financial protection on every holiday through our bonding with ATOL and ABTA.  So you can be sure. And it’s why your dedicated travel consultant always keeps you fully up to speed on visas, travel insurance and the latest travel information from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. Again, so you have complete peace of mind.

And it’s why we’ve put in place special Covid-19 response measures. Despite things easing off over the last few months you can still book with confidence. 

We’ll handle all the details, all you need to do is sit back, relax and count the days to your holiday of a lifetime.

Why visit Vietnam with Experience Travel Group?

When you travel to Vietnam with ETG, it’s so much more than just travel. It’s conversation, it’s discovery, it’s lessons in life, in humour, empathy, kindness and calm - it’s experience. A journey, that instead of rushing from “must see” to “must see” in a frenzy of box ticking, offers the time and space to experience the magic of the moment - a silly joke shared with your guide over Vietnamese coffee, a hopelessly feeble attempt to make small talk at the morning flower market, a sip, a taste, a look. 

It’s all part of our immersive holidays that give back philosophy - unique, handmade holidays shaped just for you, that aren’t just good for you, they’re carefully created to help leave the people and places you meet along the way better for the shared experience too. 

Questions? Fire away - our friendly travel team is on hand 24/7 to help you with anything you’d like to know. Just drop them a line or give them a call.

Amazing moment, after moment, after moment - when you travel to Vietnam with ETG it’s so much more than just travel. Let’s go.
