This was a wonderful, varied trip with a good mixture of culture, beautiful scenery, activities and history, both ancient and soberingly more recent. Our guide Binh was fantastic; funny, kind, patient and very knowledgeable, he was a highlight of our trip. The accommodation was all very comfortable and the food was amazing. As a vegetarian, travel can be tricky, but there were lots of delicious options. I highly recommend this trip for the first time visitor to Vietnam.

This trip was made extraordinary by two absolutely outstanding guides, one in Cambodia (Sokchea) one in Vietnam (Truong). Their knowledge, communication skills, good humour, organisational skills and sheer passion for what they do was incredible. We arranged additional tours with our guides, and being able to depend on them for taking care of every detail, from supporting with transport arrangements, recommending and taking us to great local restaurants and evening shows, sometimes joining us for fun, ensuring that our access to sites of interest was smooth and hassle-free, whilst providing a fascinating and insightful perspective on history, culture and lifestyle. In Vietnam, Truong is an incredible asset to Explore: he went above and beyond his remit every day to ensure that everyone in our group had the best, most enjoyable experience. This was priceless, his energy and enthusiasm, and superb social skills ensured that this was an unforgettable trip of a lifetime. We learned so much, and genuinely shared laughter, food and good company. This Explore trip, due to the local guides, and wonderful company of our small group, totally exceeded our expectations.
Having a small group of 5, meant that we were able to get to know each other along the way too, and shared a lot of fun. We hugely enjoyed our “Happy Team” and hope we’ve made some new friends too.
Hotels were mostly great, some more basic but overall good, clean standards. Some excelled, like Cat Ba Paradise Hotel; only one was quite disappointing and a bit frustrating in their really inefficient check-in processes, Trang Hotel in Bangkok, which wasn’t helpful after long-haul journey. Otherwise, good accommodation and friendly helpful staff along the way.

Our 10-day Vietnam tour is a journey from north to south, designed to immerse you in the country's rich culture, stunning landscapes, and unforgettable local experiences. You'll begin in the dynamic capital of Hanoi, where you'll explore ancient landmarks and delve into a vibrant culinary scene. From there, you'll cruise through the surreal beauty of Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its towering limestone karsts and emerald waters, with opportunities for kayaking and an onboard cooking class.
The adventure continues as you board the overnight Reunification Express sleeper train, offering a unique glimpse of rural life as you journey to the imperial city of Hue. Here, you'll explore the historic Citadel and cruise the serene Perfume River on a traditional Dragon boat. The tour then takes you to the charming riverside town of Hoi An, another UNESCO site, famous for its beautifully preserved Ancient Town and the magical experience of releasing handmade lanterns onto the Hoai River at sunset. You'll also have a free day to explore Hoi An at your leisure, perhaps taking an optional cooking class in the peaceful Tra Que Vegetable Village.
The final leg of your journey takes you to the bustling southern hub of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon). From there, you'll embark on a two-day excursion into the lush Mekong Delta. This is a highlight of the tour, offering genuine cultural immersion. You’ll visit local families to learn traditional crafts, paddle through tranquil canals on a rowing boat, and even participate in a 'ditch slapping' activity to catch fish for your own dinner. It's a hands-on experience that brings you closer to the rhythm of local life, making for a truly authentic and memorable trip.
For your comfort throughout the tour, we've carefully selected a range of quality accommodation.
