Immerse yourself in a vibrant blend of sights, sounds and aromas on one of our Vietnam tours. Crammed with buzzy cities, world-famous natural wonders, soft-sand beaches and rich culture, Vietnam is one of Asia’s most exciting destinations.
Vietnam’s landscape is brilliantly diverse. In the north, you’ll find verdant rice paddies and striking mountains, which give way to lively Hanoi and postcard-worthy Halong Bay. The middle is home to sleepy towns and powdery beaches, while the south serves up the lush Mekong Delta and larger-than-life Ho Chi Minh City.
Our Vietnam tours make it super easy for you travel around this wonderful country. You can combine culture and scenery when you sail between the villages of the Mekong Delta. And, if you wish, even cross the border into Cambodia on the fabulous Charms of the Mekong river cruise. Explore the bustling streets and museums of Ho Chi Minh City, and explore lantern-lit Hoi An. Cruise between Halong Bay’s islands and limestone towers. Unwind on the beaches of Danang and Phu Quoc. Whichever itinerary you choose, this exciting country will keep you more than occupied.
Whether you’d prefer the freedom of an independent tour, the intimacy of a small group tour, or an escorted tour with like-minded travellers, our Vietnam tours have something to suit all tastes and budgets. And, if you wish, you can even spend a few extra days in Cambodia or Laos. Tempted? Speak to our Travel Specialists to find out more.
Vietnam really is a tale of two cities – Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The capital, Hanoi, is in the north. You’ll notice a fusion of local Vietnamese and Chinese influences in this bustling city, from the ornate temples to the flavour-filled cuisine. You can spend some time in the city’s museums, explore the charming Old Quarter, and be entertained by a traditional water puppet show.
Down in the South, Ho Chi Minh City is influenced more by the West than anywhere else in the country, as it was once controlled by France. As the economic centre of Vietnam, this metropolis – previously known as Saigon – is one big melting pot. And there’s plenty of history, to boot. You can learn about the Vietnam War at the War Remnants Museum, visit the famous Cu Chi Tunnels, marvel at Notre Dame Cathedral, and stroll through European-style parks and plazas.
Nature-lovers are in for a treat with our Vietnam tours. You can discover stunning landscapes at every turn. The north is all about Sapa’s sprawling rice fields and Halong Bay’s sharp limestone karsts. Halong Bay and its 1,600 islets are one of main attractions in Vietnam. You can sail across this ethereal landscape on an overnight cruise, and soak up the views of this incredible UNESCO-listed wonder. And, for a closer look, you can hop in a kayak and paddle around the grottoes and coves.
For a very different cruise, why not sail along the Mekong Delta? A luscious maze of rivers, swamps and grasses, this southern estuary is also home to floating markets and villages. You can learn all about the rural way of life here, and look out for animals and birds among the unique mangrove forests.
Vietnam’s history is a patchwork of influences. The country was under the influence of China for a millennium, and part of French-Indochina for 70 years. This has led to the modern-day country being a wonderful mishmash of cultures, beliefs and values. Churches and pagodas rub shoulders with shrines and temples, and different dialects can be heard throughout the country.
And then there’s the food. Vietnamese’s mouth-watering cuisine is one of the healthiest in the world – and one of the tastiest. Enjoy distinctive dishes that balance salty, sweet, sour and spicy flavours, concocted from fresh ingredients, herbs and spices. You’ll find lip-smacking food all over Vietnam, whether you’re in a high-end restaurant or a local market. Make sure you try classic dishes like pho – a delicious noodle soup made with beer, pork or chicken – and banh mi, a crunchy baguette filled with chicken and pickled vegetables.
With a 3,000-kilometre coastline, Vietnam is brimming with quiet coves, pale sands and glistening waters. So you should definitely make time to go swimming and snorkelling. After all that exploring, you can bask on sun-soaked beaches, see tropical fish, and watch golden sunsets. Speak to our Travel Specialists about adding a beach break on to the end of your Vietnam tour.
While you certainly have plenty of options for sandy beaches, some much-loved spots include the sparkling sands of Phu Quoc Island and the caramel-coloured shores of Mui Ne. The scenic island of Phu Quoc is quickly becoming a popular beachside escape for travellers, while Mui Ne is renowned for its kitesurfing culture.
