Relaxed Vietnam in Style

An idea for your holiday

Our most relaxed Vietnam itinerary. It's perfect for a honeymoon or for a couple wanting to escape to one of the country's most idyllic beachfront locations, soaking up a flavour of its intoxicating history and culture en route.  

Spend four days exploring Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta with our carefully crafted Signature tours and a wonderful overnight boat cruise then head to Ninh Van Bay for a barefoot-luxury beach escape.

Highlights include

  • Be welcomed to an oasis in the centre of bustling Ho Chi Minh City at the dignified, French-colonial style Park Hyatt
  • Explore corners of Ho Chi Minh City with an insider, uncovering gems that few other tourists discover
  • Be whisked by speedboat to the white sand Ninh Van Bay and checking into the luxurious Six Senses resort
  • Bunk up in a cabin and snake through the colourful villages and markets of the Mekong River’s canals aboard the Bassac boat

As with all of our suggested itineraries, we can change this holiday to suit your budget, style and expectations. Find out about our exclusive ‘Journey Planner’ here.

DAY 1 Depart The UK

Depart the UK on your overnight flight to Ho Chi Minh City, known locally as Saigon.

Days 2-4 Saigon

You'll be met on arrival in Saigon by your private guide, who will transfer you to your opulent hotel in the heart of bustling Saigon. There will be plenty of time both to relax and explore during your stay, which is a mixture of city discovery, dining out and relaxing by the pool. With your guide, you'll stroll through the traditional backstreets and markets and take in the modern contrasts of this thriving city too. You'll discover the well-known sites such as the Presidential Palace and Cu Chi Tunnels (by speedboat), and there will be a chance to enjoy city views and cocktails in rooftop bars and to discover the nightlife by Vespa. 

Days 5-6 Bassac Cruise 

 You will leave Ho Chi Minh City today and drive into the Mekong Delta region, where you board the Bassac Cruise for a fantastic two-day journey through some of the smaller canals of the Mekong between Cai Be and Can Tho. Pass small villages, rice fields, and local boats and stop at a farmer's house for fresh fruit. Accommodation is on board the converted rice barge in a deluxe cabin, and the food is delicious! On the afternoon of Day 6, you’ll return to Ho Chi Minh City airport to catch the flight to Nha Trang. On arrival in Nha Trang, your driver will meet you for the short road journey to the pier where you will board the speedboat to the Six Senses Ninh Van Bay. It's a barefoot luxury style resort, is in a gorgeous location, with butlers to cater to your every whim! 

DAYS 7-13 six senses Ninh Van Bay

The Six Senses Ninh Van Bay not only offers the perfect location for relaxation, but its proximity to Nha Trang and its prime position in a calm and sheltered bay means that you can enjoy many activities and excursions on the water and land.

Whether you choose to join excursions, relax in the Six Senses Spa, or chill out by your private pool, your experiences will be truly unique and unforgettable.

Day 14 Fly Home

The speedboat and car will take you back to Nha Trang Airport, where you'll board your flight back to the UK via Ho Chi Minh City.

Alternatively, you can continue your tour on to Hoi An or Hanoi. Contact us for further details.
