An 8-day Vietnam journey from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, featuring Halong Bay cruise, Hoi An, Ba Na Hills, Cu Chi Tunnels, and the Mekong Delta.
Begin in Hanoi, where tree-lined boulevards, lakeside landmarks, and old quarter rhythms set the pace for a trip that blends city history with classic Vietnam scenery. After arrival, the itinerary moves through the capital’s signature sights before an evening cultural performance, giving you a first look at the country’s layered traditions.
From there, the route heads to Halong Bay for an overnight cruise among limestone peaks and sheltered waters. With meals on board, cave visits, a cooking demonstration, and sunrise time on deck, this section of the journey is built around the bay’s natural drama rather than a quick photo stop.
The middle of the trip shifts to central Vietnam, with Da Nang as the base for Son Tra Peninsula, Marble Mountain, Hoi An Ancient Town, and Ba Na Hills. The cable car ascent and walk across the Golden Bridge add one of Vietnam’s most recognisable viewpoints, while Hoi An brings lantern-lit streets, heritage architecture, and an easy pace for walking.
In Ho Chi Minh City, the focus turns to wartime history and river life. The Cu Chi Tunnels offer a clear look at the realities of the conflict years, while the Mekong Delta excursion to My Tho adds boat travel, small canals, local produce, and countryside scenes that feel very different from the big-city finish. It is a balanced Vietnam itinerary for travellers who want culture, scenery, and movement across the country without rushing through each stop.
