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. You will stay in good tourist-class hotels, typically rated 3 to 4-star, which provide a comfortable and welcoming base for your explorations. While in the Mekong Delta, you'll experience a stay at an authentic eco-lodge, allowing you to connect more closely with the natural environment. Your night in Ha Long Bay will be spent on a traditional junk boat, a unique and memorable way to experience the bay's tranquil beauty

I can’t imagine navigating Vietnam without Diem. The trip was incredibly organized.. starting with Diem meeting us at the airport, to the lovely hotels, flights, transportation reservations, etc. We also appreciated the tips on local cuisine shopping and sightseeing. I highly recommend the upgrade if you can afford it. We hope more upgraded Explorer trips become available.

An interesting destination with a fascinating culture.
The cuisine is delightful and this Explore trip gives you an insight into the preparation of the local food.
The flora is very colourful, but bird watchers will be very disappointed. There is more birdsong in my garden than two weeks in Vietnam.
The Vietnamese are extremely friendly and helpful. The traffic is daunting.
