“This is a brilliant trip for families who want a bit of everything – culture, adventure, and time to explore together. There’s a great mix of activities, from paddling basket boats and learning to fish, to cruising Halong Bay and discovering village life in the Mekong Delta. I’ve made sure there’s time to enjoy each place properly, with accommodation chosen for comfort and convenience.”

Starting in lively Hanoi, you’ll explore the bustling Old Quarter and sample local delicacies, soaking up the city’s vibrant street life.

Next, head to Halong Bay for a breath-taking cruise among towering limestone islands. With family-friendly activities like kayaking and cave exploration, it’s the perfect way to experience this iconic landscape.

In Ho Chi Minh City, you’ll experience the buzz of modern Vietnam on a guided motorbike tour, weaving through the streets, tasting local treats, and discovering hidden corners of the city.

Afterwards, venture into the lush Mekong Delta. Cruise winding waterways, learn about coconut processing and rice paper making, and soak up the peaceful atmosphere of riverside villages.

Finally, you’ll visit the historic Cu Chi Tunnels for a hands-on insight into Vietnam’s wartime history – a fascinating way to end your journey.

This family adventure brings together Vietnam’s diverse landscapes, rich culture, and unique experiences – thoughtfully planned, expertly guided, and packed with moments you’ll treasure for years to come.
