Vietnam Backpacker Edition: from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh
The trip in a nutshell
Looking to travel Vietnam on a budget? Then we have the perfect itinerary for you. Experience Vietnam's North and South like a true backpacker! We kick off in Hanoi, the capital, and embark on an adventure exploring the country's breathtaking landscapes, untouched villages, ancient customs, and lively markets.
Vietnam has it all - charming towns with temples, pagodas, colonial houses, serene beaches, and pristine seas. Highlights include a day cruise in the stunning Ha Long Bay and a night tour in Ho Chi Minh City. We'll also visit Hoi An, the city of lanterns, and Nha Trang, Vietnam's own 'Asian Miami' for some beach relaxation.
Our backpacker-style adventure involves traveling on night trains for roughly a third of our nights. Get ready for a journey that will capture your heart and spirit!
