Around 6pm, say xin chào to your tour leader and fellow travellers, when we gather as a group for the first time to get to know each other and learn more about the adventures ahead.

Your tour leader then ensures a big Vietnamese welcome by arranging dinner at KOTO (Know One, Teach One). By eating here, we're helping to support their inspiring training restaurant and foundation, which gives disadvantaged young people the skills and experience needed to build a brighter future.
