Vietnam: Northern Adventures

Take the day at your own pace in peaceful Tam Coc. Want to explore more? Head out to Cuc Phuong National Park to see the rainforest and visit the Endangered Primate Rescue Center. Nature lovers, this one's for you.

Ascend the 500 steps of Hang Mua, the majestic 'Lying Dragon Mountain.' Be captivated by the stunning canvas of mountains, caves, and rivers beneath, a vista once cherished by Vietnam's former King for grand celebrations. Experience a slice of tradition with a sampan boat ride, gliding through rivers and caves. Your adventure continues as we jet off to the historical city of Hue, our next vibrant chapter in this incredible journey.

Arrive in Phong Nha, a paradise for adventure seekers. Check in to your hotel and enjoy the day at leisure. You can explore Paradise Cave, visit the botanical gardens, or simply relax by the pool. If you want more action, rent a bike and explore the rural landscapes around town.

Get ready for an active day! After a relaxed morning, we head to Dark Cave for an exciting mix of activities. Zip-line over the river, swim, kayak, and explore the cave itself, complete with a fun mud bath inside. Afterward, return to the hotel for free time and an evening to unwind.

Travel to the imperial city of Hue, with a stop along the way at Big C for snacks. Before reaching town, we’ll pause at Thuan An Beach to relax and swim in the warm South China Sea. In the afternoon, check in to your hotel and enjoy free time to explore Hue or rest.

Spend the day exploring Hue at your own pace. Wander through the Imperial City, stroll along the Perfume River, or visit local markets for a taste of everyday life. With a free day here, you can choose to take it slow at a riverside café or dive deeper into the history and culture that this former imperial capital has to offer.

This morning we take the scenic drive over Hai Van Pass, one of the most beautiful coastal roads in Vietnam. Along the way, there’s an optional stop to visit local waterfalls. Continue to the charming town of Hoi An, check into your hotel, and enjoy a free evening exploring lantern-lit streets and riverside cafes.

Explore the uniqueness of this ancient port town and UNESCO World Heritage Site… or just enjoy the white sands and warm waters at An Bang Beach. Bamboo raft rides are also a cultural experience not to be missed. Time to hit the brakes on the bus rides and enjoy two days experiencing the eclectic charm of The City of Lanterns - Hoi An's well-deserved nickname. Chilling out at the hotel pool is also an option! But free time is your time - we suggest, you decide.

This morning, hop on a bike for a scenic ride through rice paddies and quiet lanes on the way to An Bang Beach. Spend the day swimming, sunbathing, or enjoying a fresh seafood lunch by the ocean. Cycle back in the late afternoon and enjoy another magical evening in Hoi An.

Enjoy one last full day in Hoi An. Take a cooking class, visit Tra Que organic herb village, or head out on a countryside tour to see how locals farm and fish. Or simply relax with a massage and soak in the town’s atmosphere before our final group dinner.

Savor your last bites of Vietnam with a second free day to roam Hoi An's charming lanes at your leisure! Once you've had your fill of fun, we'll whisk you off to Danang airport whenever you're ready. Soak in the final moments of this unforgettable journey and wave a fond farewell to Vietnam!
