Where to visit

Detailed itinerary

Welcome to Ho Chi Minh City, the lively southern gateway of Vietnam. Upon arrival, you will be warmly welcomed by your guide and transferred to your hotel for check-in. Standard hotel check-in time is around 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.

The rest of the day is free at leisure, giving you time to relax after your journey and ease into your Vietnam holiday before the coastal experiences begin.

Overnight in Ho Chi Minh City.

Day 1: Ho Chi Minh Arrival

Today, travel from Ho Chi Minh City to My Tho in the Mekong Delta, where water defines both the landscape and the local way of life.

Upon arrival, enjoy a scenic cruise on the Mekong River and discover the unique rhythm of this fertile region. As you pass the famous islands of Dragon, Unicorn, Turtle, and Phoenix, the day unfolds through peaceful waterways and charming local encounters. At Unicorn Island, enjoy a visit to a coconut candy workshop, a rowing boat ride through natural canals, and a tasting of seasonal tropical fruits accompanied by traditional Southern Vietnamese music. A visit to a local bee farm adds another enjoyable stop along the route.

While this day is not a beach experience, it introduces the water-rich beauty of southern Vietnam in a gentle and relaxing way, adding variety to your coastal journey.

On the return to Ho Chi Minh City, stop at Vinh Trang Pagoda, admired for its graceful architecture and peaceful atmosphere.

Overnight in Ho Chi Minh City.

Day 2: Ho Chi Minh - Mekong Delta (My Tho) Tour (Private Tour) (B)

This meaningful cultural experience adds depth to your holiday and creates a rewarding contrast before the journey continues toward Vietnam’s central coast.

Highlights include the famous Golden Bridge, the charming French Village, Fantasy Park, and Linh Ung Pagoda. The mountain scenery creates a beautiful contrast to the sea, making this day a pleasant addition to your beach holiday rather than a departure from it.

Lunch is served at a shared buffet restaurant, with a choice between local food and Indian food. In the afternoon, return to Da Nang, where the coastal ambience welcomes you once again.

Surrounded by lush greenery and gentle water scenes, this experience feels laid-back, tropical, and perfectly suited to a beach holiday mood. Along the way, you may observe local fishing techniques and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of this water-based excursion.

The journey then continues to Hoi An Ancient Town, where historic architecture and old-world charm create one of Vietnam’s most enchanting settings. Highlights include the Phuc Kien Assembly Hall, the Phung Hung Ancient House or Tan Ky Ancient House, and the Japanese Bridge.

In the evening, enjoy one of the most atmospheric moments of the journey with a boat ride and flower lantern release on the river. Surrounded by glowing lights and the romance of Hoi An by night, this experience adds a magical waterside touch to your beach holiday.

Overnight in Hanoi.

Day 7: Da Nang - Fly to Hanoi (B)

Today, depart Hanoi by private transfer via the expressway to Halong Bay, where one of Vietnam’s most breathtaking marine landscapes awaits.

Upon boarding your cruise, begin a memorable journey through emerald waters and limestone islands rising dramatically from the sea. This overnight cruise is one of the highlights of the tour and an essential part of its beach and coastal character. Lunch is served on board as the vessel glides through scenic formations and tranquil bays.

In the afternoon, depending on the cruise program, you may enjoy activities such as kayaking, cave visits, swimming, or simply relaxing on the sundeck while admiring the seascape. These moments bring a true sense of marine escape, adding a special dimension to your Vietnam beach holiday.

As evening falls, enjoy dinner on board and settle into your comfortable cabin for a peaceful overnight stay surrounded by the calm beauty of the bay.

An Unforgettable Vietnam Experience – Seamless Planning, Amazing People & Wonderful Memories! ❤ We genuinely had a wonderful experience exploring Vietnam with VietnamTour.in! From the initial planning to the end of our journey, everything was exceptionally well organised, thoughtfully planned and smoothly executed. A special mention to Joey from the sales team, who was extremely prompt, helpful and available 24/7 whenever we needed assistance. Her quick responses, constant support and willingness to help made the entire planning process effortless. It’s just a pity we couldn’t meet in person! A big thank you to Sophie, Alora and the entire team as well for their efforts and coordination in making this trip such a memorable one. A special shout-out to our amazing tour guides – Myee (Hanoi), Phat (Da Nang) and Hans (Ho Chi Minh City)! ❤️ All three were incredibly patient, cooperative, welcoming and friendly. Their warmth, local knowledge and willingness to help made us feel comfortable throughout the journey. Our entire group thoroughly enjoyed every moment with them, and they genuinely added so much value to our Vietnam experience. The itinerary, transportation, coordination and overall arrangements were excellent. If there’s one small piece of constructive feedback, I felt the hotel in Ho Chi Minh City was a little average compared to the other arrangements. However, its central location was definitely a plus, so it was manageable. Apart from that, everything was fantastic! We have absolutely no major complaints and truly appreciate the effort, dedication and professionalism of the entire team. We would definitely recommend VietnamTour.in to anyone planning a trip to Vietnam! You have a fantastic team, and we would love to plan another holiday with you in the future. Thank you once again for giving us such wonderful memories of Vietnam. Keep up the great work! ❤️🙌😊

Most memorable trip! Vietnam Tour (operated under Seni World) for South Africans really went above and beyond any agent Ive worked with. Daisy was our consultant from start to finish (even checking in that we arrived back safely). Our trip was customised to what we wanted to see and do, and executed so well. Every pickup was flawless and we enjoyed our trip tremendously. We were even spoiled with a gift as well. Thank you Daisy, for your professionalism, patience and advice!

Breath Taking Vietnam What an experience. What we knew about Vietnam and what we saw and experienced is like chalk and cheese. The history, culture and traditions breath taking. The star who tailor made this trip for us is none other than Amber. I explained to Amber what I wanted to see, and the package she put together was perfect. Amazing job, and what an amazing country. So much to see and so much to experience.
