##### Ultimate Vietnam: Sept 21st to 29th' 2024

OVERVIEW
Vietnam is an assault on the senses. Life in its feverish cities is conducted largely on the streets, among chattering bia hois (pavement pubs) and steaming pho (noodle soup) stands. The country’s two main cities – Hanoi in the north, Ho Chi Minh in the south – are different in many ways, but they share an intoxicating energy. Ancient pagodas and colonial houses jostle for space with new-build skyscrapers, while labyrinthine back-alleys hum with life. These narrow streets are atmospheric places to spend time, day or night. A frenetic and fascinating country, it calls to mind conical-hatted street vendors, water buffalo plodding across rice fields, mopeds buzzing through cities and floating markets on the Mekong River.
Explore Vietnam on this journey that takes you from North to South. Start with the colonial elegance and charm of Vietnam’s atmospheric capital – Hanoi, travel to the natural wonderland of Halong Bay in a traditional junk boat and set sail through hundreds of limestone karsts that rise dramatically from the emerald waters of this beautiful bay, wander the ancient street of of tranquil Hoi An, bask on the beaches of Hoi An and Danang, explore the beautiful water-world and landscape of the Mekong delta and finish off in the fast pace and bustle of modern day Saigon. Experience Vietnam’s beautiful landscapes, delicious cuisine and the renowned friendliness of the Vietnamese people on this 9 day journey that takes you from north to south.
