About this trip
Twelve days covering Vietnam from north to south, taking in the mountains, the coast and the river delta rather than just one region. You get a real mix of pace and scenery — trekking one week, cruising the next, then wandering old town streets and floating markets.
Expect misty rice terraces around Sapa, a night afloat among Halong Bay's limestone karsts, the lantern-lit lanes of Hoi An, and a slower look at daily life in the Mekong Delta, bookended by Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
It's a small group setup with local guides throughout, built for travellers who want the country's highlights joined up without having to plan the logistics themselves.
