Day 2

Day 2 Cu Chi Tunnels – Painting class

In the morning, you will drive to Cu Chi Tunnels. Before entering the tunnels, you watch a short introductory video showing how the tunnels were constructed. Also on displaying, there are various mantraps and the remains of an American tank as well as numerous bomb craters made by 500 pound bombs dropped by B52 bombers. You then spend the next hour exploring the maze of tunnels to see the first-hand how the Viet Cong communists were able to survive in this underground network. Your kids could be likely to try crawling through a part of tunnels at the end of the trip. You then drive back to Ho Chi Minh City. This afternoon, an extra fun family activity awaits you at VinSpace called the “family art blast”. Vin Space is a boutique art studio that provides a variety of art workshops for adults and children. Family Art Blast invites children of all ages and their adult companions to participate together in collaborative hands-on art making activities. This is great quality time for your family to make art and be merry! Overnight in Ho Chi Minh
Day 3

Day 3 Mekong Delta

After a high-paced first day, we slow things down today as we head south from the city into the evocative Mekong Delta. There are few more relaxing experiences than a cruise through the laid-back tropical world of the delta, and we've chosen the cosy and comfortable Bassac on which to do it. After a welcome drink and an introduction to the ship and crew we cast off and sail up the Tien Giang River, enjoying lunch on the upper deck en route. In the afternoon we visit a village on the banks of the Mang Thít River, where we can appreciate Delta life firsthand. We stroll through the fruit orchards and rice fields nearby, before returning to the Bassac for sundowner drinks, as the sun sets over Mekong's magical waterways. Dinner will be served whilst the Bassac cruises the Mang Thit River towards our anchorage for the night, downstream from the little market of Tra On.
Day 4

Day 4 Mekong Delta - Ho Chi Minh city

A brief visit to Tra On floating market after breakfast is followed by a chance to explore the largest floating market in the region at Cai Rang, where much of the Delta come to trade fruit and other produce from their barges. We disembark here and return to Ho Chi Minh City for a last night there.
Day 5

Day 5 : Siem Reap Arrival – Angkor Thom – Siem Reap

We wave farewell to Vietnam this morning and take the short flight over the border to Siem Reap in Cambodia. After completing customs and immigration procedures, we meet our local guide and drive the short distance to town where we check in and freshen up before our afternoon adventure commences. Hop in a private remork (tuk-tuk) for the 15-minute ride to the South Gate and walk along the ancient city wall with your guide, stopping for photos of magnificent demons lining the causeway. Explore the lost temple of Prasat Chrung for approximately one hour before continuing to the 12th-century Bayon Temple, surrounded by 51 stone towers; each features four serene faces of a smiling bodhisattva. Your knowledgeable guide then accompanies you the Terrace of the Elephants, the Royal Palace and the Terrace of the Leper King, where you can spend up to two hours. Hear fascinating stories about the Khmer kings that once ruled the ancient city. After your private tour, spend your evening at your leisure. If you're feeling social, take a dip in the outdoor pool that hosts a happy hour. Otherwise head to your air-conditioned room and enjoy dinner and drinks ordered from the room service menu.
Day 6

Day 6: Siem Reap – Ta Prohm – Angkor Wat– Banteay Srei – Pre Rup – Siem Reap

Rise early and depart from your hotel approximately 30 minutes before sunrise, traveling by remork to the jungle-covered temple of Ta Prohm. The UNESCO-listed temple complex is one of the most popular at Angkor. The monuments have been left in the same condition in which they were discovered in the 19th century. Return to your hotel for breakfast, after which you visit the world-famous Angkor Wat, another UNESCO World Heritage site and the best preserved of all the temples in the Angkor Archaeological Park. Your private tour around this magnificent 12th-century structure lasts a few hours. Discover numerous surviving stone temples, once surrounded by wood palaces, public buildings and houses that have since disappeared. Following lunch at a local restaurant in the afternoon, drive to the temple of Banteay Srei, built in the 10th century. Located 19 miles (32 km) from Siem Reap, the small UNESCO-listed temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva, but is dubbed ‘Citadel of Women’ for its ornate sandstone carvings, a crown jewel of Angkor art. After your 1.5-hour private tour, take some time to explore on your own and enjoy a provided lunch. When it's time to head back to Siem Reap, you might even catch the sunset descending behind prongs of Pre Rup.
Day 7

Day 7: Siem Reap – Tonle Sap Lake – Siem Reap

Following breakfast, take a 30-minute morning drive by remork to the edge of Siem Reap for a 15-minute ox-cart ride through the countryside. Then continue by air-conditioned vehicle to reach Cambodia’s largest freshwater lake, Tonle Sap. Classified as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the lake feeds the Mekong River during the dry season and swells during monsoons. Board a local boat at the riverbank for an approximate 30-minute ride to Kompong Phluk, the largest floating village on the lake, where you’ll spend the rest of the morning. Here, observe the fascinating daily activities of the Cambodian villagers who reside along the shore, gaining a better sense of how their lives are shaped by the water’s rhythms. After lunch at a local restaurant, the rest of your day is free to spend as you like. Afternoon we take our flight northbound to Danang, the largest city in Central Vietnam. On arrival a coach will be waiting to transfer us down the coast to one of Vietnam's most magical destinations: the ancient trading port of Hoi An. Our hotel is located on the very edge of the pedestrianised Old Town, making it an ideal spot for personal exploration.

Day 10 Free days in Hoi An

Hoi An is famous for its shops, in particular its large number of tailors. If you wanted, you could have a whole new wardrobe made for you here! The riverside market is always a hive of activity, especially in the early morning when the day's catch arrives. You might like to take a boat ride with one of the local women across the Thu Bon River. You could hire a bicycle and head off on a scenic ride to Cua Dai beach, about 4 km away, stopping along the way at some of the neighbouring villages. One thing is for sure - there is no shortage of things to do in this town!
Day 11

Day 11 Hue

After breakfast today we drive onward to the imperial capital of Hue, stopping briefly in Danang to visit the Cham Museum, which contains the finest collection of Cham sculptures in the world. The drive to Hue is one of the most scenic in the country, ascending the Pass of Ocean Clouds before dropping down to the photogenic fishing village of Lang Co beyond. After checking in to our splendid art-deco hotel, La Residence, and freshening up, we head out to enjoy dinner at the private 'garden house' of one Hue's most famous architects. This traditional style house, which is set in a large and attractive formal garden, has connections with the ancient Hue Royal Imperial Court, and in addition to preparing us a sumptuous Vietnamese meal, the owner of the house will also give us a short cooking demonstration and let us try our hands at creating some of Hue's celebrated royal dishes.
Day 12

Day 12 Hue

Hue is set along the banks of the Perfume River, named for the fragrance of tropical flowers said to be carried down from orchards upriver. After a morning exploration of the huge Citadel, home of the Nguyen Emperors, and a cyclo tour through the Old Town, we take a picturesque boat ride up the river to the Thien Mu Pagoda. The countryside surrounding the city is dotted with the tombs of the former emperors, and you may wish to use your free afternoon to explore these grand and atmospheric remnants of Vietnam's imperial past.
Day 13

Day 13 Hanoi

A short flight north brings us from the former to the current capital, and the fantastic jumble of styles and influences that is Hanoi. Our base here is the magisterial Metropole Hotel, one of the oldest and most refined of Vietnam's colonial properties, located in the French Quarter close to the Opera House and within a few minutes walk of Hoan Kiem Lake. One of the best ways of understanding Vietnamese culture, and the differences between the regions, is through food, and we have arranged for our favourite local food expert, Mr Tu, to combine a tour of Hanoi's old town with an introduction to the markets, cuisine and eating habits of North Vietnam. As we stroll through the narrow lanes we will sample pho tiu and bun dau, pick out the best seasonal fruit and maybe stop at a French-influenced patisserie for coffee and cakes. There is no better, or tastier, way to get to know the city.
Day 14

Day 14 Hanoi

Ho Chi Minh died before the conclusion of the Vietnam War, but the reverence in which he was held was such that his body was preserved and a grand mausoleum created in Hanoi to allow the Vietnamese people to pay their respects. Our exploration of the city commences here, at the complex that houses the Stalinist mausoleum, the Presidential Palace and Ho Chi Minh's more humble private residence. Our next stop is the Temple of Literature, Vietnam's first university constructed in 1070, with lovely gardens and well-preserved architecture. After lunch, to provide context to the journey ahead, we visit the excellent, recently-opened Ethnology Museum, where Vietnam's diverse minority cultures are explained in a thoughtful and hands-on manner.
Day 15

Day 15 Transfer to Halong Bay

The drive through the Red River Delta to Ha Long City takes approximately four hours. Upon arriving in Halong City, we transfer to our private boat for a cruise of the crystalline emerald waters of Halong Bay, giving us the chance to take in the stunning scenery of this World Heritage Site. Whilst on board, we will be served a sumptuous fresh, local seafood lunch, followed by a swim. We will also have the opportunity to explore some of the limestone caves in this area.
