About this trip
Five days that take you from Hanoi's old streets to the terraced hills of Sapa and out onto the water in Halong Bay. It's a proper mix of city, mountain and sea in a short space of time, so expect movement most days.
You'll spend time on foot in the Muong Hoa Valley, meeting H'mong communities along the way, before switching pace entirely for a cruise and some kayaking among Halong Bay's limestone karsts.
What you'll do
- Wander Hanoi's old quarter, the so-called 'Paris of the East'
- Hike through Sapa's Muong Hoa Valley
- Visit H'mong villages and learn traditional crafts
- Cruise Halong Bay and kayak among the karsts
- Climb Titov Peak for views over the bay
- Fast-paced given the length — you cover Hanoi, Sapa and Halong Bay all in five days
- Involves genuine hiking in Sapa, so bring proper footwear
- Partially guided, with private rooms throughout
