Recommended itinerary

Days 1-2

Hanoi

You’ll arrive in Vietnam, where a private transfer will meet you and take you to the city centre for a stay next to the Hanoi Opera House at Hotel de l’Opera Hanoi – MGallery. You can venture out to explore the narrow streets of the Old Quarter and savour authentic Vietnamese cuisine like at one of the local eateries. Why not start the day early with a peaceful visit to Hoan Kiem Lake before delving into the capital’s rich culture by exploring key attractions, including the historic Temple of Literature.

Danang

It's all about a bit of mid-holiday down time on the white-sand beaches in the lively coastal city of Danang. Spend four nights at TIA Wellness Resort, a minimalist-design-meets-tropical-vibes retreat where days can be ultra relaxed thanks to the all day, served anywhere breakfast.

Day 10

Ho Chi Minh City

You'll go from the beach back to the hubub of the city as you travel to Vietnam's largest metropolis.
