Halong Bay

Rice paddies tended by farmers in conical hats, a two-thousand mile coastline with sandy beaches and mountains covered in the vibrant greens of lush tropical vegetation. Welcome to Vietnam, one of Southeast Asia’s most beautiful countries. We begin in Ho Chi Minh (Saigon). Explore the famous Cu Chi Tunnel complex and the Mekong Delta, where we enjoy a riverboat trip on the Tein River. We drive to Dalat, known as the “City of Flowers”. Visit a silkworm workshop and see Dalat’s “Crazy House”, the former palace of the emperor Bao Dai. Traveling north to Hoi An, we explore this restored open-air museum and UNESCO World Heritage Site. In My Son, we learn about the Cham people, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

After stopping at My Khê (China beach), we travel over the spectacular Hai Van Pass to Hue, the former ancient capital modeled after the Forbidden City in Beijing. While exploring Hue, we use cyclos (bicycle taxis) to visit the Citadel, Vietnam’s Forbidden City and the local Dong Bay market. Continuing north, we visit the first national park in Vietnam, Cuc Phuong, before visiting a unique traditional village, which is also an ecological reserve area. Enjoy the sites of Hanoi, amidst shaded streets, French colonial architecture and the surrounding lakes of the downtown core. In Halong Bay, enjoy a 3-day/2night cruise aboard our comfortable barge, navigating the turquoise waters amid spectacular cliff-faced islands while enjoying incredible seafood feasts before returning to Hanoi for our farewell dinner.
