Hanoi → Ha Long Bay → Ninh Binh → Hue → Hoi An → Ho Chi Minh City → Ben Tre

7 daysNorthern mountains: Ba Be Lake and Cao Bang
Hanoi → Ba Be Lake & Bac Kan → Cao Bang
A week in the wild northeast: a lakeside Tay homestay, Ban Gioc Waterfall on the Chinese border, caves and jade-green rivers — far from the crowds.

Da Nang → Hoi An → Quy Nhon
Beaches, Cham towers and some of Vietnam's best food — from the easy city beaches of Da Nang to the quiet coves and islands of Quy Nhon.
6 daysThe Mekong Delta in six days
Ben Tre → Dong Thap → Can Tho → Chau Doc & An Giang
Coconut islands, flower villages, floating markets and the Khmer and Cham communities of the Cambodian border — the delta beyond the day trip.
8 daysSaigon and the southern beaches
Ho Chi Minh City → Vung Tau → Mui Ne & Phan Thiet
A week of city, sea and sand dunes: Saigon's food scene, Vung Tau's seafood and Mui Ne's dunes, fishing fleet and kitesurfing winds.
9 daysHighlands to the sea: Dak Nong, Da Lat and Nha Trang
Ho Chi Minh City → Dak Nong Geopark → Da Lat → Nha Trang
From Saigon up onto the volcanic plateau of the Dak Nong Geopark, through cool pine-clad Da Lat and down to the islands of Nha Trang.
