I truly enjoyed my experience with GAdventures. The SouthEast Asia encompassed tour was a great way to see the highlights of 4 different countries. It was a great opportunity to truly experience each culture and give back to the communities. The tour leader really makes the experience as positive as it was. It wouldn’t be the same without Chen!

We really enjoyed this comprehensive tour of Vietnam. Including time in more rural areas as well as the well known cities and sites, it gave us a great insight into local culture and there was plenty of opportunity to meet the locals who were incredibly friendly. The trip ran seemlesly in the extremely capable hands of our tour leader Diem, one of the best we've had (this was our 6th family holiday with Explore). Highlights would include all of the bike rides, exploring Tam Coc caves by boat, Saigon by cyclo, the amazing food, so fresh and plentiful, and the kids loved haggling for bargains in the markets and shops (especially Hoi An). Accommodation and transport were both of a great standard. Well done Explore!

Vietnam Beach Escape

Trip customizable

Best price guaranteed

This tour offers a seamless blend of contrasts — the lively pulse of a bustling capital, the serene luxury of a coastal escape, and the tranquil beauty of Vietnam’s rural landscapes. It’s a journey that caters to every mood, from the fast-paced to the utterly relaxed. Begin in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam’s dynamic southern hub, where history and modernity converge. Take time to explore the city’s graceful colonial architecture, relics of a bygone era that stand proudly amid the energy of contemporary life. Wander past tree-lined boulevards, visit French-era landmarks like the Saigon Notre-Dame Cathedral and Central Post Office, and immerse yourself in the vibrant street life, brimming with local flavors, bustling markets, and a palpable sense of momentum. Then, leave the city’s buzz behind as you travel 125 kilometers south to Ho Tram, a peaceful seaside haven famed for its unspoiled beaches and laid-back charm. Here, the rhythm of life slows, inviting you to unwind for five glorious nights in a setting where the blue waters meet soft sands, and every sunrise feels like a fresh beginning. Whether you prefer luxurious spa treatments, water sports, or simple beachside relaxation, Ho Tram offers the perfect sanctuary. Beyond the shore, the surrounding countryside beckons. Explore lush green landscapes, traditional villages, and rice paddies that stretch endlessly, offering a window into Vietnam’s pastoral soul. Take leisurely excursions at your own pace, discovering the simplicity and authenticity of rural life, untouched by the hustle of the modern world. As your retreat comes to an end, return to Ho Chi Minh City for your journey home, carrying with you memories of contrasts beautifully balanced — from city lights to coastal breezes, and the peaceful grace of the countryside in between.
