About this trip
Nineteen days across two countries, starting in the busy streets of Ho Chi Minh City and moving through Ha Long Bay, Hoi An, and Hanoi before crossing into Thailand for temples, markets, and island time in Phuket and Phi Phi.
It's a broad introduction rather than a deep dive: history and city life in Vietnam, then a shift toward temples, an ethical elephant encounter, and beach relaxation in Thailand.
Suited to those wanting a first proper look at both countries in one go, with a mix of guided sightseeing and free time built in.
