Vietnam's vibrant cities and dramatic landscapes unfold one after another on this fascinating journey. In Hanoi, a sightseeing tour and a welcome dinner at the social enterprise restaurant KOTO set the tone, before we board a traditional boat for an overnight cruise among the limestone karsts of Halong Bay, one of the world's most photographed seascapes. A flight south brings us to the former imperial capital of Hue, then onward to the lantern-lit charm of Hoi An's ancient riverside town. In Ho Chi Minh City, a sightseeing tour is followed by a tasting at the city's first craft beer brewery, a contemporary contrast to the history that surrounds it. Our adventure continues with a journey into the Mekong Delta, where narrow waterways and floating markets reveal a side of Vietnam unchanged by time. Then continue your journey to Cambodia, spend time sightseeing in Phnom Penh, and take a tour of the stunning Angkor Wat temple complex. From colonial architecture to bowls of steaming pho, this is a country that rewards curiosity at every turn, and this tour captures its full and colourful character.
