  • Days 1-2

    Hanoi

    Start your Vietnam journey in the capital city. "The small street-kitchens in Hanoi serve amazing local cuisine - don't miss trying pho from the vendors near Hoan Kiem Lake." Get to the Temple of Literature by 8:30 AM before the tour groups show up. Spend time exploring the winding streets of the Old Quarter. If you're there on a Monday when the Ethnology Museum is closed, check out the Women's Museum instead.

    
  • Days 3-4

    Halong Bay

    It's a 3.5-hour drive east to Halong Bay. Bring motion sickness pills since the water can get rough. Book an overnight cruise to catch both sunset and sunrise. Want the best morning views? Ask for a cabin on the port side. You can go kayaking but bring water shoes for the slippery limestone caves.

    
  • Days 4-6

    Hoi An

    Book a morning flight to Hoi An to avoid afternoon storms. The ancient town is quietest and most beautiful at dawn. Take a boat trip on the Thu Bon River to Kim Bong village where you can watch traditional woodworking. As one visitor noted, "Watching the skilled artisans craft traditional boats was a highlight." Visit My Son Sanctuary first thing to avoid crowds and heat.

    
  • Days 7-9

    Ho Chi Minh City

    Stay in District 1 to be close to everything. Get to the War Remnants Museum when it opens at 7:30 AM. Take the early tour to Cu Chi Tunnels before it gets too hot. A helpful tip from a past visitor: "The tunnels are not for claustrophobes - there's an exit point after 20 meters if needed."

    
  • Days 10-14

    Phu Quoc Island

    Finish your trip on this beautiful island. Look for beaches on the north shore. Long Beach is nice since it gets afternoon shade. Getting around is easier with Grab bikes since taxis cost a lot. The best weather is from November to March. Expect some afternoon rain during wet season. A previous guest suggests: "Book a snorkeling trip to the An Thoi islands - the water visibility is much better than near the main beaches."

  • Days 1-2

    Hanoi & Surroundings

    Start your journey in the capital's Old Quarter, where narrow lanes come alive with street food vendors and motorbikes. "Watching the monks collect alms at sunrise at Tran Quoc Pagoda was humbling. Bring a shawl—it gets chilly in the morning." Plan to arrive in the early afternoon to avoid rush hour traffic from the airport. The drive can take up to 90 minutes during busy times.

    
  • Days 3-4

    Sapa Region

    Take the 6-hour morning bus from Hanoi to Sapa. You'll trek through terraced rice fields to Cat Cat Village and Ta Van, where H'mong and Tay minorities live. The paths can get slippery after rain, so good hiking shoes are essential. Each day includes 2-3 hours of moderate trekking. Head back to Hanoi on the evening of day 4.

    
  • Days 5-6

    Halong Bay

    It's a 3.5-hour drive east to this UNESCO site. You'll board your overnight cruise at noon. "The kayaking through limestone caves was incredible, but pack motion sickness pills if you're sensitive." Book a cruise from Bai Tu Long port to avoid the main tourist crowds.

    
  • Days 7-8

    Hoi An

    Take a 1.5-hour flight from Hanoi to Da Nang, followed by a 30-minute drive to Hoi An. The Ancient Town features beautiful yellow buildings and excellent tailors (give them at least 24 hours for custom clothes). Visit My Son Sanctuary early before the heat kicks in. Join a cooking class at the central market during its busy morning hours.

    
  • Days 9-10

    Hue

    The 3-hour drive north along the Hai Van Pass includes a stop at Lang Co Beach. Visit the Imperial City early to avoid crowds and heat. Skip the tourist restaurants and try a garden house restaurant in the local Citadel area instead.

    
  • Days 11-14

    Southern Vietnam

    Fly to Ho Chi Minh City (2 hours). Start with the Cu Chi Tunnels before the tour buses arrive—it's a 90-minute drive each way. Take day trips to the Mekong Delta's My Tho and Ben Tre. A valuable tip from a frequent visitor: "The best floating markets are early morning only, so stay overnight in Can Tho if you want authentic photos."

  • Days 1-2

    Hanoi

    Start in Vietnam's capital and wander through the Old Quarter. Visit Hoan Kiem Lake from 6-7 AM to watch locals practicing tai chi. Plan temple visits before 10 AM when the narrow streets get crowded.

    
  • Day 3

    Ninh Binh

    Visit this inland version of Halong Bay. The Tam Coc bamboo boat ride takes about 1.5 hours. Pack a hat and water since the limestone peaks offer minimal shade. "The 500-step climb to Dragon Peak was challenging but worth it for the panoramic view of the rice fields," shared a traveler.

    
  • Days 4-5

    Sapa

    Take a 6-hour bus to the mountains. Walk through rice terraces and minority villages. Pack sturdy hiking shoes since paths get slippery after rain. Spend a night in a local Dzay house for an authentic local experience.

    
  • Days 6-7

    Halong Bay

    Take a morning shuttle (4 hours) to this UNESCO site. "The sunrise Tai Chi on deck was magical, but pack motion sickness pills if you're sensitive - the water can get choppy," one reviewer mentioned. Check weather conditions for kayaking options.

    
  • Days 8-10

    Hoi An

    Fly to this charming ancient trading port. "The early morning market by the Thu Bon River showed us the real local life," a traveler shared. Order custom clothes on your first day since tailors need 24-48 hours. The streets look best from 6-8 PM when lanterns light up.

    
  • Days 11-14

    Ho Chi Minh City & Mekong Delta

    End your trip in the vibrant south. See Cu Chi Tunnels in the morning to avoid peak heat. Take a day trip to the Mekong Delta for sampan rides through small canals. "Bring small bills for the floating market vendors - they often can't make change for large notes," advised one visitor.
