About this trip
This 14-day trip runs the length of Vietnam, from the karst-studded waters of the north down to the river life of the Mekong Delta in the south. It's built around the country's big-name sights, but with enough local texture — street food runs, small-town wandering, village visits — that it doesn't feel like a checklist.
Expect a mix of cities, ancient sites, and countryside, with an overnight cruise thrown in as one of the trip's calmer stretches. It's a good fit if you want Vietnam's highlights covered without having to plan the logistics yourself.

- Overnight cruise among the limestone karsts of Halong Bay
