Our 21-day ‘Trails of Vietnam’ takes you off the beaten path. Explore the country’s highlights – from charming Hanoi to traveller’s favourite, Hoi An, and fabulous Saigon – but also get to know Vietnam’s lesser visited side. Spend the night on magical Halong Bay, discover the infamous DMZ and follow the Ho Chi Minh Trail through the remote Central Highlands.

Ask our Travellers: "Our tour leader and local guides simply made our holiday, every detail of our accommodation and travel was spot on. We had lots of laughs too, learnt some basic Vietnamese, shared jokes and instantly felt that we were amongst friends.”

Responsible Travel: When you visit less-visited rural provinces of Vietnam, you will develop cultural awareness and help spread the economic benefits of tourism. Buy Central Highland handicrafts and delicious local coffee at the source and help contribute the building of local economies. You’ll also pay less than you would in the city!
