A spirit of adventure and cultural exploration
Whether you're sailing through Halong Bay, sharing a sunrise over Hoi An, or exploring the Mekong Delta together, Vietnam promises to create a honeymoon filled with beautiful memories.
Whether you're after a classic mix of adventure and relaxation or something more off the beaten track, Vietnam has the kind of variety that makes a trip feel truly special.
What we love about Vietnam for honeymooners is the balance. You can start in the north, exploring the culture and cuisine of Hanoi before sailing through the dramatic limestone peaks of Halong Bay on a traditional junk boat – perfect for a private, slow-paced escape. In central Vietnam, Hoi An offers boutique charm, riverside dining, and plenty of opportunities to unwind or explore. And down south, the tropical beaches of Phu Quoc or Con Dao add that classic just-married touch, with high-end resorts and soft, sandy shores.
There’s also the food – fresh, regional, and packed with flavour – and a welcoming, friendly culture that makes travelling feel effortless. Whether you want candlelit dinners in a colonial villa or a street food tour on the back of a Vespa, we’ll tailor your trip to fit your style.

Your safety is always our top priority and our team are always happy to spend time answering any questions or concerns, just give one of our experts a call on 0203 111 1315. We only sell destinations and experiences that are considered safe for travel at the time of booking. However, situations can change, so we always recommend checking the latest guidance from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) before you travel. We also encourage you to follow any local advice while abroad and take out comprehensive travel insurance for peace of mind.
What kind of food experiences can we enjoy as a couple?
Vietnamese cuisine is vibrant and romantic. Enjoy candlelit dinners on riverside terraces, sample street food together in the evenings, or join a private cooking class to learn regional dishes. From fresh seafood to fragrant herbs and tropical fruit, sharing meals here is a sensory delight.
Can we combine a Vietnam honeymoon with a short side trip abroad?
Yes. Many couples combine Vietnam with nearby destinations such as Cambodia for Angkor Wat, Thailand for beaches and islands, or Singapore for city sophistication. This allows you to enjoy both Vietnam’s culture and landscapes, alongside a contrasting adventure or relaxation.
How long should we spend in Vietnam for a honeymoon?
We recommend 10-14 days to experience the highlights without feeling rushed. This allows time for city exploration, countryside or cultural excursions, and a few relaxing days on the beach. Longer itineraries are perfect if you want to include multiple regions or combine with another nearby country.
