Hanoi
Hanoi is one of the best tourist attractions for Vietnam holidays. It is a busy city, bustling with activity, but if you stay for a week or two you will soon learn to appreciate it. Nearby Ha Long Bay and Sapa, and the Old District in Hanoi are some great places to check out. The famous Perfume Pagoda is also a must see.
Visit Northeast Vietnam
Get out and explore the wilderness! Find places that only a tiny percentage of tourists have ever seen. Jump into one of the four-wheeled vehicles provided for the purpose and discover regions such as Ha Giang and Cao Bang. The longer you go for, the more you’ll discover!
Journey down to Hue
Hue is south of Hanoi, and is an ancient Vietnamese capital. You will want a few days to have a look around and visit some of the breath-taking temples in the area.
Pop into Hoi An
A lovely beach is just the first of many great attractions in this wonderful city. You will never grow tired of looking at the incredible architecture in the beautiful streets of Hoi An, or picking up tailor-made clothes at bargain prices.
Nha Trang
Scuba diving is great in this region, with a number of amazing beaches around.
Saigon
Some will know Saigon as Ho Chi Minh city. This is Vietnam’s central business district. It is even louder and busier than Hanoi! But it has heaps to see and do, so stick around for a while.
Drift down the Mekong Delta
The Mekong Delta will prove to be a unique experience as you drift along. Take a look at the floating markets as you go.
Phu Quoc Island
Leave this little beauty till last. Growing commercialism has not been able to spoil the pristine beaches and clear, beautiful water of this wonderful island, just south of Cambodia.
