Things to do


Kids will adore climbing aboard a traditional fishing junk to explore the waterways of Halong Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Between kayaking and swimming, they might even spot a red-haired monkey.

Explore the historic Ho Chi Minh City, the most populous metropolis in Vietnam. It’s a breathtaking blend of foods and markets, where there’s always something to do. Lose yourself in the overwhelming scents of Ben Thanh Market, one of its earliest surviving structures. Then, learn about the Vietnam War by going to the Cu Chi Tunnels and War Remnants Museum.

In Northern Vietnam, take a walking tour of Hanoi, the country’s capital, where you can indulge in a street food tour. Famed for its centuries-old architecture, it boasts a rich Southeast Asian culture mixed with French influences.

Explore the Old Quarter, with its narrow winding streets, before spending some time at one of the impressive temples. Or, visit the rice fields of Sapa, where you will meet one of the hill tribes.

Places to visit


There are countless places to call at during your tour of Vietnam. Stay in Da Nang, a coastal city with no shortage of swimming pools and white sandy beaches. Hoi An is also wonderful for families, thanks to its extremely child-friendly resorts and entertainment.

Stroll through the streets in the preserved old town or explore nearby islands, before shopping for ingredients at the Central Market and learning to cook a Vietnamese feast.

On the other side of the country, situated in the Gulf of Thailand, is Phu Quoc. This Vietnamese island is full of family-friendly resorts, offering a multitude of activities, similar to the fishing and snorkelling you will find in Nha Trang.
