VIETNAM
Breathtaking landscapes, buzzing cities and bewitching coastlines – a luxury Vietnam holiday is an amazing adventure.
Ho Chi Minh City, still commonly called Saigon, is delightfully chaotic. Ringing bicycles, beeping scooters and roaring motorbikes whirl through streets teeming with local stalls selling coffee and fried snacks. Meanwhile, the famous floating markets of the Mekong Delta are alive with fragrances of lemongrass and mint. Here, animated locals in conical hats buy and sell delicious culinary treats from colourful boats - a far cry from the still and misty mangroves along the delta’s backwaters.
In Vietnam’s ancient capital Hanoi, French colonial architecture and Buddhist temples are best explored on foot before setting sail on a traditional junk through the dramatic limestone landscape of Halong Bay. A truly unforgettable experience.
Continue journeying north reveal the rice terraces of hill tribe communities, all blissfully hidden away from the modern world. Or head out to the west coast, where miles of unspoiled porcelain white sand lapped by diamond waters offer the perfect opportunity to unwind.
A truly captivating blend of thrilling cities, mysterious deltas, paradise beaches and fascinating history. Vietnam continues to mesmerize.
