Vietnam Tour
In order to optimize the route, a Vietnam travel
itinerary is usually in the South-North or
North-South direction, depending on the point of
arrival, usually Ho Chi Minh or Hanoi, and the
points of interest are the themselves. Vietnam is
a "long" but "narrow" country.

Ho Chi Minh (Saigon)
Ho Chi Minh, before the war called Saigon, is the
commercial capital of Vietnam, heiress of the
capitalist past of American influence is the Sin
City of this country. It is a good place to party
and visit war memorials such as the Museum of
American Occupation or the tunnels excavated by
the Viet Cong resistance on the outskirts of the
city.
4
Mekong Delta
The Mekong Delta, one of the largest rivers in
the world, covers the whole area south of Ho Chi
Minh City and is a tangle of rice fields, canals,
markets and cities, being the most densely
populated area in all of Vietnam. Normally, it is
visited on a one-day tour organized by one of the
dozens of travel agencies in Saigon, an
experience that is already quite touristy and
that knows little. To try to enjoy a little more
wealth of the area, the ideal will be to spend
there a few days and try to get out a little of
the tourist tracks. Also one can enjoy Mekong
bike tours
5
Phu Quoc
Vietnam is not exactly a paradisiacal destination
for beaches like neighboring Thailand. Except in
Phu Quoc. Ideal for those who need a beach during
the holidays or to rest after having crossed
Vietnam from one end to the other
6
Dalat Vietnam
The secret off the tourist trail is Dalat. This
is a former mountain resort of the French, with a
climate very similar to the European. To get to
know this central region, the best way is to take
a motorcycle tour , one or more days, with the
Dalat Easy Rider , and get to know the true
Vietnam rural, authentic, without schemes for
tourists, just pure sympathy and Vietnamese
hospitality
7
Ho An Vietnam
Hoi an is the most picturesque city in Vietnam,
which has preserved its historic center intact
with its Japanese merchant houses, Chinese
temples and tea warehouses. The chaos of Saigon
and Hanoi is light years away and this is a place
of rest, to take advantage of the beaches and
with the possibility of making suits and dresses
tailored to the many tailors
8
Hue Vietnam
Hue is the former imperial capital of Vietnam and
now Unesco World Heritage, although much of its
most beautiful buildings have been destroyed
during the American War. Located on the banks of
the Perfume River, this city is now a mix of the
new, with all the new post-war buildings, and the
old one, with its ancient citadel walls and
countless temples.
9
Phong Nha Vietnam
Phong Nha and Ke Bang National Park is one of the
most beautiful areas of Vietnam and worth a visit
without a doubt. Amongst numerous caves where you
can take boat trips, the magnificent river, rural
villages, stunning landscapes and some radical
activities, the ideal is even to rent a scooter
and walk around without destination! Two or three
days are not too much to enjoy well all around.
