Terms & Conditions applyMeals
There are 12 breakfasts, one lunch and two dinners included on this trip. For many, the culinary offerings in Vietnam are a highlight. Across the country, the influence of the Chinese and French is still strong and youโre just as likely to be offered a banh mi (stuffed baguette) as you are a flavour-packed bowl of pho (noodle soup). Be sure to seek out the national beverages: Vietnamese coffee is served iced and sweet with condensed milk, a real sugar and caffeine hit, and beer hoi (local beer, brewed daily) is served on most street corners in the north out of large plastic jugs that are perfect for sharing. Food is cheap in Vietnam and you can generally avoid the spicier dishes if you wish. Western food is readily available almost everywhere, except for the night in the Mekong Delta. Vegetarian meals are widely available; however, the offering is fairly similar in most places. Please advise at the time of booking if you have any dietary requirements.

Transport
Throughout the tour we use a private coach/minibus, usually with air conditioning. Road conditions are generally good and improving all the time in Vietnam. However, progress can be slow in the main cities due to traffic. The trains are normally on time, but you may experience delays and departure times can change without notice. Boats are used at various points in the itinerary; these are nearly always private and vary from converted trawlers to small riverboats. Tet holiday period (Vietnamese New Year) During the Tet holiday period (9-15 February 2024 and 28 January-3 February 2025) and two weeks either side of Tet, our itinerary is subject to minor change as, despite booking hotels and trains in advance, rooms and seats are difficult to obtain during this busy festive period when people are travelling home to celebrate with their families. It is unlikely changes will occur and, if they do, it is likely we just need to use alternative accommodation.
Guide
Our Vietnamese leaders are very popular with their incredible knowledge, passion and hospitality. Thereโs no better way to experience Vietnamese culture than letting a local guide show you around.
Accommodation
The accommodation on this trip provides an adventurous variety of places to stay. We stay in hotels for 10 nights. We also spend one night on a junk boat cruising Ha Long Bay and one night in a homestay in the Mekong Delta. Finally, we have one night on the Reunification Express, a sleeper train that takes us from Hanoi to Hue. The accommodations we typically use are on the day-to-day itinerary; however, below are a few of the notable places we stay on this trip. Ha Long Bay cruise Board a traditional junk boat to cruise among the magnificent limestone karsts of Ha Long Bay. Each of the twin-share cabins has air conditioning and a window out to sea, while the boat has a rooftop deck with chairs โ this is where most of our travellers tend to gather for views over the bay. Thereโs also a dining room with glass windows so we can continue to admire this extraordinary landscape during lunch and dinner. Reunification Express Our sleeper train takes us from Hanoi to Hue โ a classic journey in this part of the world. Itโs an essential part of the tour, linking two special destinations without flying or a lengthy coach trip. However, trains in Vietnam are not luxurious and itโs best to come prepared to maximise your experience โ weโve found extra warm layers to combat the air conditioning and ear plugs can provide a little more comfort! We stay in mixed-gender soft-bed berths, usually four passengers per berth. The trains here are safe but, as with any trip, we recommend you keep valuables with you. Snacks are normally offered on board and most trains have Western-style facilities, but some are equipped with squat toilets. Mekong Delta homestay Our time in a guesthouse allows us to experience true Delta hospitality, as we are looked after by local people and stay by the Mekong River. The rooms are relatively basic; bedding, a mosquito net and a small towel are provided, while there are shared bathroom facilities with a shower. The real highlight though is the hospitality of our hosts, the lush garden, and the food (homemade southern Vietnamese cuisine). Worth knowing Single supplements are available (on request) but only for 10 nights of the trip (hotel nights). Please advise your sales representative at the time of booking if you would like to request a single supplement. Private bathroom facilities are not available at the Mekong Delta homestay or the overnight sleeper train. The accommodation listed in each location on the day-to-day itinerary are the standard hotels used. However, there may be some departures where groups stay at similar hotels of the same standard and quality.
