Itinerary
What if your next trip could leave a positive mark on both you and the communities you visit? Vietnam's Voyage of Volunteering & Exploration - 12 Days blends meaningful volunteer work with immersive travel, inviting adventurous spirits of all ages—especially young adults and seniors—to go far beyond typical sightseeing. Begin your journey in the stunning, lesser-known Da Bac region of Hoa Binh province, where rolling hills, vibrant ethnic cultures, and breathtaking scenery await. Here, you’ll actively participate in local initiatives, from developing forest parks and playgrounds to learning the art of organic farming—all projects that directly benefit underprivileged children and empower remote communities through education.
This unique tour package doesn’t just show you Vietnam’s beauty—it encourages you to help shape it. Your hands-on involvement in school renovations and sustainable farming offers an authentic, heartfelt connection to local life, while also fostering inspiring conversations on sustainable living with fellow travelers. Beyond Da Bac, you’ll explore the wonders of Northern Vietnam, winding through the enchanting landscapes of Ninh Binh and cruising among the limestone karsts of Halong Bay.
Throughout this journey, you’ll be surrounded by like-minded explorers, all united by a passion for travel with purpose. And for every trip booked, an additional $20 is contributed to ongoing community projects, extending your impact even further. The real highlight? Knowing your adventure helps create brighter futures for the places—and people—you encounter. This is more than a tour; it’s a chance to make memories and meaningful change, all while discovering Vietnam’s most captivating corners.

Stunning in many ways
What more we can say... First time in Vietnam, and the whole experience was incredible. Vietnam was gorgeous in many aspects from nature to people. I was totally amazed by the spectacular view of the caves in Ninh Binh and Halong Bay, while my parents liked the Hue countryside tour. Vietnamese cuisine was excellent, from local street food to seafood buffets. We tried egg coffee, and it was so good, you must try it when traveling to Hanoi. We bought lots of souvenirs for our friends. We bought conical hats in the village, which was making them for a very long time, and we even saw the entire process of making them. We also recommend you to look at the products with mother-of-pearl decorations, you will be pleasantly surprised with the price for it. Thank you, travel specialist for making my visit memorable.
BEST 15 DAYS EVER
It was absolutely GREAT! My husband and I had a lot of opportunities to learn something new and self-improve thanks to this trip. Long is quite likely the most understanding and patient agent I've ever met. He responded to me so quickly and made sure the trip proceeded without a hitch. Definitely, the best 15 days ever!
Uniqueness
I can't believe I got to experience so much with this trip. I'm not so good at cooking, but the meals I learned to make in Hue were very delicious. The most exciting part for me was fishing at Tam Giang lagoon, it was the first time I caught a fish in my life! Not to mention how a spectacular place it was.
