Itinerary Overview
Your journey begins in Hanoi, Vietnam’s captivating capital. Here you’ll explore beyond the surface — winding through the Old Quarter by vintage Jeep or bicycle, uncovering French colonial gems, hidden temples, and stories told through street food. At day’s end, return to your boutique hotel and prepare for the adventures ahead.
Leaving the city behind, the landscapes open up into the serene valleys of Mai Châu. Cycle through rice paddies and traditional Thai villages, before venturing into the heart of the Pu Luong Nature Reserve — a secluded haven of limestone hills, bamboo forests and terrace-lined trails. Here, authentic hospitality meets rare tranquillity.
Continue south to Ninh Binh, often described as “Ha Long Bay on land,” where you’ll stay in a peaceful riverside retreat. Glide through hidden grottoes by sampan, visit ancient pagodas, and hike to panoramic viewpoints overlooking dramatic karst scenery.
From here, you’ll journey to Ha Long Bay itself — boarding a traditional yet refined junk boat for an overnight cruise across emerald waters. After soaking up the seascape, board the night train to Hue in a private sleeper cabin, arriving in Vietnam’s former imperial capital as dawn breaks.
In Hue, discover the timeless beauty of riverside tombs and royal citadels. Then journey south along the spectacular Hai Van coastal pass to Hoi An — a romantic riverside town lit by lanterns and steeped in culture. Here you’ll explore ancient lanes, cruise by bamboo basket boat, and learn the art of Vietnamese cuisine in a hands-on class.
A short flight takes you to Ho Chi Minh City, where sleek rooftop bars, French architecture and buzzing markets offer a modern counterpoint to the country’s northern grace. Visit the Cao Dai Temple — one of the world’s most unique religious sites — and walk through the historic Cu Chi tunnels with expert guides.
Then it’s time to immerse yourself in the Mekong Delta, exploring the waterways, islands and daily life of this fertile region. A private sampan and local hosts guide you through floating markets, traditional workshops and peaceful canals.
Finally, fly to the tropical island of Phu Quoc for a luxurious finish. Spend your final days unwinding by the turquoise sea — swimming, snorkelling, or simply indulging in the serenity of your beachfront retreat.
