Vietnam Walking Trips

5.0

23 reviews on bookmundi

Walking tours are an excellent way to discover authentic Vietnam. The delightful flavors, changing colors and many moods of Hanoi’s Old Quarter are best experienced on foot. Admire the morning sunlight falling on the old yellow buildings and 19th-century communal houses as you pass the vibrant market, stroll around the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long, and stop by a hole-in-the-wall for a delicious cup of traditionally roasted coffee. Explore Ho Chi Minh City like a local by wandering around its small alleys, stopping by the Chinese medicine market, and sipping ice-cold herbal tea. There are top-rated Vietnam walking tours far away from the cities, like in the islands of the Mekong Delta. Walk on the river bank, discover Khmer pagodas and interact with local communities.

Best trip of my life!

This trip has genuinely been the best experience of my entire life. From day one when we all met Nana, he was warm, welcoming, and instantly made everyone feel comfortable with eachother. He’s the perfect mix of funny, caring and passionate about making sur we all had the best time possible. Every activity we did was so much fun, and Nana always added something extra to it whether it was cracking jokes, telling us stories/history about Cambodia, or just hyping everyone up. You can tell he really loves what he does, and that made all the difference. He always checked in on us, made sure we were safe, happy, and had everything we needed, and he somehow managed to do all of that while keeping the group laughing nonstop. I’ve made some incredible memories on this trip that I’ll keep forever, and some friends I’ll have for life, and a massive part of that is thanks to Nana. I’ve loved every single moment, every activity, every laugh. I can’t recommend this trip enough, and if you’re lucky enough to get Nana as your guide, you’re genuinely in for the best time of your life!!

A unexpected but welcome eye opener to untaught histories and wonders of the Asia continent! The sights were a breath of fresh air from Europe standards and the kind spirited everyday Cambodian people was a warm addition to our travels.

Review of Cambodia tour (Tour Guide: Hul)

The Cambodia tour was incredible from start to finish. Finishing on the party island with a few beers and a beach festival was the perfect way to end the trip! Our favourite part was meeting all the locals (Hul's friends and family) as well as experiencing how they live. I can’t recommend this tour enough, an unforgettable experience in an amazing country
