The journey
Vietnam for curious young explorers
Built for families, this journey trades queues for hands-on adventure: making lanterns in Hoi An, spinning a round basket boat through the coconut palms, sailing a bay full of dragons and finishing with proper beach days. There is wonder for the children and ease for the grown-ups. Like every journey we make, it's a starting point: tell us what moves you, and we'll shape it around your family, your pace and your budget.

Day by day
The route in detail
Days 1–3
Hanoi
Break the family in gently with a cyclo spin through the Old Quarter, a giggle-filled water-puppet show and egg-coffee stops between lake walks and street snacks.
Days 4–5
Ha Long Bay
Sail into the bay on a private junk, kayaking to hidden beaches, squid-fishing off the deck at night and swimming in the warm, karst-sheltered green water.
Days 6–8
Hoi An
The heart of the trip for young hands: making silk lanterns, spinning basket boats through the coconut palms, cooking together and cycling flat, easy paddy lanes.
Days 9–10
Nha Trang
Slow right down on the central coast with beach time, gentle snorkelling over shallow reefs and a lazy island-hopping boat day the children will remember.
Days 11–12
Ho Chi Minh City
Finish in bustling Saigon with a fun food-cart wander, a hands-on look at the delta's floating markets and a little rooftop treat before the flight home.
