Ancient Stones and Timeless Traditions
Vietnam is full of living culture – rich, welcoming and woven into every corner of daily life.
Vietnam offers a rich and layered journey through landscapes where history and spirituality are deeply woven into daily life. From the misty hills of Sapa to the ornate temples of Hue, every stop reveals stories of resilience, tradition and quiet beauty.
In Hanoi, the Temple of Literature – Vietnam’s first university – is a peaceful haven of stone pavilions and shaded courtyards, still honouring scholars from centuries past. Further south in Hue, the imperial citadel tells tales of emperors and dynasties through its grand gates, intricate carvings and royal chambers.
Across the country, Buddhist and Confucian influences shape the spiritual rhythm of life. You might hear the soft chanting of monks at Thien Mu Pagoda in Hue, or join a meditation session for a more personal glimpse into Vietnam’s contemplative traditions. Outside the cities, visits to traditional craft villages – from silk weaving to wood carving – offer a hands-on connection to Vietnam’s enduring cultural heritage.

Vietnam Trip Inspiration
Our Vietnam Specialist, Nia, says:
“Vietnam is a dream for anyone curious about culture. I love how every place tells its own story – from Hoi An, where you can wander the historic streets and even try making your own lantern with a local artisan, to Hue with its imperial citadel and ornate temples. In the villages, you’ll see traditional weaving, cooking, and crafts still being practised, and the locals are always happy to share their skills and stories. For me, it’s this mix of history, craft, and everyday life that makes Vietnam so endlessly fascinating.”
