Vietnam Tours in September 2026

The tour director Thom was excellent, so knowledgable about history as well as being very personable and thoughtful. Highlights for us include historic Hoi An, Lantern making in Hoi An, Halong Bay the Mekong Delta and the Red Bridge Cooking school. We also really appreciated the Thanh Dong Organic Village and the silk grafting at Van **** Silk Village. Terrific of Trafalgar to support people with disabilities. The farewell dinner at the home of the former American Ambassador was also special.

I recently completed a 5-day Ha Giang Loop tour, and it was hands down one of the most unforgettable experiences of my travels in Vietnam. The trip was extremely well-organized from start to finish, with every detail taken care of from transport to meals and accommodation. A special shout-out to our guide, Eagle, who truly made the trip exceptional. He was not only enthusiastic and full of energy every day, but also incredibly accommodating and approachable. Whether it was helping with small requests, sharing local insights, or making sure everyone felt included, Eagle went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable for everyone. The food throughout the tour was consistently excellent fresh, flavorful, and a great mix of local Vietnamese dishes. Accommodation was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Overall, I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore the stunning landscapes of Ha Giang with a team that knows how to deliver a truly memorable and hassle-free experience.

Phenomenal experience travelling through Vietnam 🇻🇳 from top to bottom with our excellent guide “Thin”. We hit gold with an enthusiastic, understanding & knowledgeable local guide. Thin is also a parent to a teenager, so he gets it.. our group was small, which was a fantastic given the hot time of year we traveled end July/Aug… due to UK school holidays.. Thin is a ‘foodie’ so we ate in the most amazing restaurants & no one got sick across the entire trip. He was flexible on the itinerary which was very much appreciated. Everyone we met across the entire country was happy & welcoming. Hotels were very centrally located. Drivers & mini van’s excellent clean & air con. Local tailors, glasses 👓, art - our guide had recommendations & guided us everywhere. We managed the heat better than expected throughout the trip. Hue & Hoi Han are beautiful small towns in central Vietnam French influence everywhere too. Hanoi was a baptism of fire especially crossing the road. All added to the charm. HaLong Bay / the fabulous overnight stay on the junk boat especially with sunrise TaiChi on deck. The beaches were disappointing especially the water.. but heavy tourist traffic is to blame which we contributed too.. Overnight train was clean & smooth albeit long, but safe with other tour groups. Saigon/HCM city is very western and more expensive etc but our hotel was soo central near TimesSq. Mekong Delta is fabulous & the home stay was out of this world with an outdoor shower! Vietnam has so much history, sad times.. the trip includes visits to museums, chi chi tunnels providing an insight into the past wars, eg 2025 marked 50 years since the American War. It’s important we remember those who lost their lives. Highly recommend this trip .. able bodied especially in hot temperatures. Vietnam is thriving & changing.. go before it changes too much.

Had an amazing time on the tour in Vietnam, it is an amazing countries and all the locations and activities were really good. Leo was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable, kind and helpful throughout the trip.

Had an amazing time travelling with truetravels, especially with Leo as my guide for my Vietnam trip, who was always willing to help me out and was very entertaining to be around. Overall I would highly recommend this trip as it had something for everyone to enjoy.

My wife and I truly enjoyed this incredible tour. The 3-star hotels exceeded our expectations, not only in comfort, but also in location, allowing us to easily explore local life. Every pickup was seamless. The tours themselves were well-organized and each experience was memorable. Honestly, our only regret is not having more time in each of these amazing places! A special thanks to our dedicated rep, Evelyn, who supported us throughout the trip. This was a 5/5 experience, and we’ll absolutely be recommending it to family, friends, and colleagues!
