Highlights of Vietnam - 10 days

From the boisterous energy of Saigon to the tranquil islands of Halong Bay, discover the contrasting regions of this diverse country. An insight into traditional Vietnamese life, Hoi An’s antiquated streets will thoroughly charm you, and the drive to Hue through the lush agriculture and stunning coastal vistas of provincial Vietnam is breathtaking. Appreciate the comfort and convenience of flights between major centres, leaving you more time to experience this joyous destination.

1.  In the lush Mekong Delta, stop at a nearby farm and share a cup of rice wine with the locals.
2.  Streets cafe in Hoi An trains disadvantaged youth. Learn about local produce when you join some of the students for a tour of the market, which in turns help students learn language and interaction skills.
3.  Using all recycled materials, the deaf and mute children that run the Healing the Wounded Heart shop sit down with you and show you how to make your own souvenir to take home.
