People who tour Vietnam love the exciting mix of delectable Vietnamese cuisine, rich history, and stunning natural beauty. However, the Vietnamese people often steal the show with their demonstrations of ingenuity and their friendliness to visitors. Proud and patriotic, the Vietnamese delight in sharing their traditions and history.
During your Vietnam holiday you will experience its contrasts. The frantic pace of the cities contradicts the traditional farming methods employed in the peaceful countryside. The bustling Mekong Delta of the south is a world away from the breathtaking Halong Bay in the north. Trek to traditional hill tribe villages in the cool climate of the north one day, and relax by the pool at a tropical island resort the next.
When you travel to Hanoi you can feel a serious and stoic capital steeped in history, while the vibrant and cosmopolitan Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), with nine million inhabitants and five million motorbikes, never sleeps. The former Imperial capital of Hue and the ancient trading port of Hoi An offer an evocative glimpse into the country’s rich historical past.
Vietnam promises to leave fond and lasting memories, and with so much to see and do, the real challenge is deciding how to fit it all in to your Vietnam Holiday Package!

"The organisation was excellent, every guide turned up on time and were excellent hosts with lots of information, very helpful and vert friendly. The tours, flights and itinerary were all great. We didn't have any issues. The Mon Cheri was amazing, we loved Halong Bay. I would recommend people doing the 2 nights as the day between the nights was filled with a full day of excursions which were interesting and fun. The food on the boat was excellent. Thank you for organizing the trip, it was all very well co ordinated and we will have no hesitating in recommending Getaboutasia to other people. " — Russel and Denise, Sunshine Coast, October 2019
"The far north Vietnam tour has been very good. Great guide and driver – now our new friends…. We loved the food and remote villages for interaction.

Halong Bay was fabulous, wonderful ship, great room with a balcony, fantastic tour director Thanh, who went out of his way to make our trip enjoyable. He knew all the tricks to avoid the crowds. We really enjoyed our day trip to Ba Na Hills. High praise for the company you booked it through. We did sunrise/sunset cruises and it was all great. Phu Quoc was beautiful, our villa right on the ocean, did lots of swimming, walking along the beach etc. We loved it the most beautiful place. Thanks again, amazing holiday and we definitely appreciate your hard work to make it so fabulous." — Carolyn, Sydney, January 2019

"The Ha Long Bay adventure was perfect. Two days gave us time to really enjoy the boat and scenery not to mention the quality of the food on offer. Vietnam flights were comfortable and on time. Saigon was truly wonderful. Of course the traffic was stunning. Our guide Tammy bent over backwards to ensure we enjoyed the stay., We felt like princes as she helped us onto the first boat taking us across the Mekong river whilst dozens of tourists crammed onto boats around us. (and helped this 80 year old on and off several other boats during our time there.) We visited farms and businesses making chocolate from Cocoa bean and sweets from cocoanut cream.Our knowledge of tropical fruits expanded and we enjoyed the trip on the jaunting cart. Then there was the channel cruise on the small boat with the lady oarsman. On the practical side, all three guides were excellent. Were there to meet us at airports and were concerned to ensure that our passage through Airport Departure was smooth. All hotels were up to the standard we had hoped for and vehicles/water bottles etc spot on." — Mr and Mrs Brown, Sydney, April 2018
