Vietnam 360°: from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City
The trip in a nutshell
Multi-destination trip
This trip starts in Hanoi and ends in Ho Chi Minh City!
If you want to discover South-East Asia, Vietnam is the place to start! The nature is beautiful and diverse, cities are crowded and hectic just like you imagine any city in Asia should be and people are the most smiling and welcoming ever!
We start our group trip in the capital in Hanoi and then head off to explore the north, with the rice fields of Pu Luong, the pagodas in Ninh Binh and the magical Halong Bay. We continue our journey by traveling south, first reaching Hue and Hoi An by train (the local one!), then arriving in Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta. A journey from North to South, discovering one of the most fascinating countries ever. Ready to enjoy every single moment of this incredible adventure?
