This is a completely unique and spectacular itinerary that shows you the best of the country but also enables you to avoid the crowds in Vietnam. We take you from Hanoi, onto an off the beaten track cruise of Halong Bay before taking you on an overnight sleeper to Phong Nha, a lesser visited area that is home to some of Asia’s best caves. Then it’s onto Hue for a slice of history before spending a few days on the beach near Hoi An (we’ve picked the beach where there are no big resorts for you) before taking you down to Saigon for some adventures in the south including a two-day bike ride in the Mekong (if you don’t like cycling we can change this very easily!)
