Detailed Itinerary

Welcome to Hanoi! Your guide will meet you at the airport and take you to your hotel. After you’ve settled in (rooms available from 2 PM), your Hanoi exploration begins.

You’ll begin our journey at the Ho Chi Minh Complex with a view of the grand Mausoleum from the outside, followed by a stroll past the modest stilt house where Uncle Ho lived and worked for more than a decade. Not far away, the graceful One Pillar Pagoda rises from a lotus pond, a delicate structure dedicated to the Goddess of Mercy and admired for its unique design.

Next, your trip continues with the Temple of Literature, Vietnam’s first university, founded in 1070 and filled with ancient courtyards and echoes of Confucian learning. As the afternoon unfolds, let’s enjoy a quiet walk around Hoan Kiem Lake. The calm water, the timeless Turtle Tower, and the poetic charm of Ngoc Son Temple also bring a peaceful pause in the heart of the city.

Meals are your own. Your day ends with relaxation in the Hanoi hotel.

Start your day by visiting the legendary Independence Palace, also called the Reunification Palace. This is an important historical emblem of Vietnam and was the design of the noted architect Ngo Viet Thu. Proceed with exploring the French colonial buildings of the city by visiting the beautiful Notre Dame Cathedral and the grand Central Post Office. A trip to the War Remnants Museum will give you a better understanding of Vietnam’s history, with lots of exhibits from the Indochina wars.

You’ll have a tasty lunch at a local restaurant before continuing to the Cu Chi Tunnels, a drive of one and a half hours.

Upon arrival, you’ll watch a video explaining how this complex network of tunnels was built and how people lived here during the war. Then head into the tunnels to see living areas, command centers, rooms for weapon storage, and hidden traps that were all part of Vietnam’s fight against its enemies.

Complete your tour by sampling some specialty tea and cassava, the wartime staple food for guerrilla fighters. Relax, shop, and eat in Ho Chi Minh City during the afternoon, or, for the slightly adventurous, attempt some real shooting practice (optional, at your own cost).

Your Mekong Delta adventure begins as you leave the bustling city of Ho Chi Minh and journey to My Tho, a wonderful town along the Mekong River. First, you’ll visit the historic Vinh Trang pagoda, a beautiful 19th-century site. Then, together, you’ll embark on a delightful sampan cruise, exploring the enchanting islands of Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Tortoise.

At Unicorn Island, you can stroll along country lanes, explore lush orchards, and savor tropical fruits while enjoying local folk music. A visit to a fruit plantation follows. The next experience is exploring the tranquility of the countryside with a hand-rowed sampan ride through Thoi Son canal, visiting family-run businesses, a honey-bee farm, and a coconut candy workshop. Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant.

In the afternoon, you can either cycle through Tan Thach village to experience local life or relax in a hammock and enjoy the Delta breeze.
