Embark on a 12-night adventure from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City on this National Geographic Journey by G Adventures. Designed for curious travellers who crave meaningful connections and unique experiences, this epic trip takes you from the emerald waters of Halong Bay to the bustling markets of Hoi An, offering the perfect blend of culture, history, and natural beauty. As part of their Trees for Days initiative, G Adventures will also plant a tree for every day of your trip, helping you support the planet as you travel.

• Begin your day with a walking tour of Hoi An’s busy market, where the smell of fresh herbs and spices fills the air. Here, you’ll uncover the secrets of Vietnam’s noodle culture, learning about the 26 unique types of noodles crafted in the region. Watch local artisans at work, perfecting their craft, and even try your hand at making some yourself.

• Step aboard a traditional junk boat and set sail through the blue waters of Halong Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and past the towering limestone karsts and hidden caves. Spend your time kayaking through secluded lagoons, enjoying freshly prepared seafood on deck, or simply soaking in the views from the sunlit deck.

• Hue, the former imperial capital, is a treasure trove of history and culture. Wander through the Forbidden Purple City, a sprawling complex of palaces and temples that once housed Vietnam’s emperors. Then, venture into the countryside to visit the ornate tombs of these rulers, each one a masterpiece of architecture and storytelling.

• Conclude your journey in the vibrant Ho Chi Minh City. Explore the legendary Cu Chi Tunnels, a vast underground network used during the Vietnam War. Walk through these historic passageways and learn about their significance before returning to the city to take in its iconic landmarks, busy streets, and rich energy.
