What's this trip about?

    This meticulously crafted journey boasts 12 days of bliss and fascination combining a harmonious mix of culture, luxury, scenic beauty plus a little seaside ” R & R” to bring you a truly magical experience of Vietnam. Your introduction to Vietnam begins with touching down one of Southeast Asia’s most charming cities – Hoi An, a beautiful seaside town of unsurpassed charm nestled in central Vietnam and recognized as UNESCO World Heritage site for its preservation of centuries-old atmosphere dating back to the 15th century. Hoi An’s exotic combination of tranquil rivers, cobblestone alleyways, spectacular architecture and eclectic shop houses & open air restaurants never ceases to delight even the most seasoned traveler. Here, immerse yourself in the local Vietnamese culture while enjoying some of the finest shopping and dining Vietnam has to offer. Next, visit Halong Bay and pamper yourself on board your very own privately chartered “Junk” while soaking up the stunning seascape of emerald waters and imposing karst towers. Continue to Hanoi, Vietnam’s capital, a vibrant yet charming city of lakes, shaded boulevards and public parks where we’ll visit several of the country’s revered landmarks plus a chance to sample some delicious local street fares.
