Best of Vietnam &  21 days, with luxury beach break
[updated 2024]

If you're seeking a 3-week itinerary that encompasses the very best of Vietnam along with the iconic Angkor temples, then this trip is for you.
Start off in Siem Reap and spend a few days exploring the majestic temples of Angkor, before flying to Hanoi, famous for its bustling streets. The holiday then continues with a trip to Sapa, a beautiful mountainous area that you can reach from Hanoi either by driving or taking a luxury overnight train. Of course, any visit to northern Vietnam can't be complete without an overnight Ha Long Bay cruise; one of the things our clients love is to relax and soak in the view from their private balcony.

Next, visit Hue, famous for its ancient citadels and royal tombs. Founded in 1687, Hue has always been considered the soul of Vietnam - the center for scholars, poets, philosophers, and emperors. From Hue, it's only a 3.5-hour drive to Hoi An, a city that was once voted 'best city on earth' by readers of Wanderlust Magazine. Hoi An is renowned for its cobbled streets and distinctive yellow shopfronts adorned with colorful lanterns, and delicious Vietnamese Banh Mi that you will taste on the included food tour.

Finish off with Ho Chi Minh city and the Mekong delta, famous for its fruit farms, flower orchards, labyrinthine canals, and delightful floating markets. The tour ends in Phu Quoc, a tropical island with turquoise-clear water and pristine beaches.
