Whether travelling alone, as a couple or a family, Vietnam has never-ending opportunities for engaging adventures and unforgettable experiences. Embark on a multi-centre journey through a country bursting with stunning scenery, unchanged traditions and a strong sense of cultural identity.
A land of extraordinary natural beauty tracing a curve down the eastern edge of South East Asia, Vietnam is a wonderful fusion of influences from around the world, with French, Chinese and various other nations all having left a noticeable impression. Blessed with a pleasant climate, Vietnam has much to offer the modern traveller. View the dramatic rock formations of Halong Bay, the lush, steamy waterways of the Mekong Delta and dramatic mountain ranges or step back in time in the rural surrounds of the emerald green paddy fields dotted with locals wearing
conical hats.
Meanwhile modern day Vietnam can be found in the cities, rife with technicoloured character and a blend of old and new, from the colonial buildings to the present day hum of motorbikes through its streets. Explore caves in the national parks and take in the sights of the country’s turbulent historical past, or enjoy recreational pursuits like cycling along beachfront avenues while staying in luxurious resorts and sampling authentic local dishes made with fresh and fiery flavours.
