Itinerary idea in detail

Includes international flights from a choice of UK airports, including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

  • Today you begin your journey by boarding your international outbound flight to Hanoi.

  • Upon arrival in Hanoi, you'll be met and taken to your hotel, with the rest of the day to relax after your flight.

  • This morning, you'll head out into the city with your guide to explore the capital’s key sites. In the afternoon, you'll have more time to discover the city under your own steam.

  • Depart Hanoi with your guide, bound for the limestone karst topography of Bai Tu Long Bay, less-frequented but boasting equally dramatic scenery to the better-known Halong Bay.

  • Enjoy a full day of cruising through the limestone cliffs of the bay, disembarking to explore a local village on foot or by bike. Back on board, watch the sun dip below the karsts as you enjoy a sumptuous chef-prepared dinner.

  • Rise early for t’ai chi on deck and a chance to kayak in one of the bay's many quiet inlets before brunch back on board. Disembark for the journey back to Hanoi and your onward flight to Hue.

  • This morning, explore the historical highlights of Hue, including the impressive Citadel and the poetic mausoleum of Emperor Tu Duc.

  • Leave Hue today, heading to Hoi An on a scenic route that takes in sweeping coastal views via the Hai Van Pass.

  • Explore the UNESCO town of Hoi An with your private guide on hand to offer their expert knowledge.

  • Prepare to get your hands dirty today with a farm experience, starting with an easy cycle through village lanes. Arriving at the farm, try your hand at the centuries-old tradition of wet rice cultivation. The immersive afternoon finishes with making rice flour pancakes and a meal with your hosts.

  • Travel to Danang for your flight to Can Tho. Here you spend a night in the lovely Azeria hotel, and this evening enjoy a sunset river cruise.

  • Today you'll board the Bassac Boat for a charming overnight cruise through the Mekong Delta.

  • After disembarking your overnight cruise, head to Rach Gia to catch the ferry across to Phu Quoc. Here you'll enjoy three nights on the island, at the charming La Veranda Resort.

  • Enjoy a full day relaxing and taking advantage of the facilities at your resort.

  • Phu Quoc has much to offer if you wish to explore off the resort, from its famed pepper farms to pearl harvesting to the opportunity to snorkel over bright coral reefs.

  • After flying to Ho Chi Minh City and settling into your hotel, you'll be collected by Vespa to embark on an unforgettable evening tour of Ho Chi Minh City.

  • Travel by speedboat to explore the Cu Chi Tunnels, a hidden network of Viet Cong tunnels, bunkers and field hospitals.
