Vietnam Highlights in 10 Days

This 10-day Vietnam itinerary links Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta with a mix of city time, countryside visits and coastal scenery. Begin in Hanoi, where arrival and hotel transfer are arranged for you. The trip then continues to Ba Vi for a countryside day focused on local hosts, tea-growing, village workshops, cycling and a traditional herbal foot soak. From there, travel to Halong Bay for an overnight cruise through the limestone islands before returning to the mainland and flying on to Hoi An. In Hoi An, there is time to slow down, with one free day and a group experience that combines a local market, basket boat riding, fishing and cooking. The route then moves south to Ho Chi Minh City for a visit to the Cu Chi Tunnels and a day in the Mekong Delta, including My Tho, Vinh Trang Pagoda, river travel and village stops. The tour ends in Ho Chi Minh City after breakfast on the final day. Included features vary by departure and chosen hotel category.
