Hello Mrs. Huyen and all her team,

We had dreamed it, we had prepared our trip with the guides, and now we are back, with the images still fresh in our minds.

Thank you and congratulations for this perfect organization, despite the fact that a flight was delayed a day at the last minute. We found our guides and drivers as planned, the guides were friendly, spoke perfect English, the "busy" program was respected.

Recounting our journey could become a real novel, so we will talk about the main points. Now, worry before leaving because the guides said that we should avoid the Tet period, that for the lunar new year everything was closed, anyway what joy, flowers, decorations, events everywhere.

👉Hanoi, staying in the center, after a tour of the city, and a visit to Kampa Tour, a well-deserved siesta, we set off on foot (without a guide) through the narrow streets (thanks to the GPS to find the hotel).

👉The next day, visits to museums, great water puppet show.

👉Day 3: Halong Bay on land, boat ride, overnight in Ninh Binh (Tam Coc)

👉Day 4: Return to Hanoi, visit Bai Binh Pagoda.

👉Day 5 & 6: Visit to Halong Bay, fog was forecast for us, indeed in the morning: fog over the bay, but towards noon Kampa Tour predicted a beautiful and bright sun. Splendid! Visit to a cave, night on the boat.

👉Day 7: Visit the imperial city, making incense sticks and hats, walk along the Song Huong, drink the iced tea full of many good things - excellent!

👉Day 8, 9 & 10: Hue Road, Hoi An via Da Nang, magnificent mountain road in the middle of the clouds. Too bad, we didn't have time to stop at the pass, nor in Da Nang, a city known for its military base during the war between the United States and the Vietcong. Hoi AN, the city of lanterns and colonial houses, we attended a great show on the island of Hoi An Memories. Japanese bridge under construction for several years, visit to the rice paddies, discovery of the beach during our rest day.

👉Day 11: Hoi An Ho Chi Min

👉Day 12: Ho Chi Min - Ben Tré. Mekong crosses over magnificent bridges, Very nice hostel in a natural setting. Visit a chocolate factory, boat ride, visit to a brick factory.

👉Day 13: Ben Tré, Tra Vin, Cantho, motorcycle tour, visit to a Kmer temple.

👉Day 14: everything accelerates, in addition to the visits, we have to go back to Saigon, and take the plane back to Phu Quoc. For a well-deserved rest.

👉Until the 18th: Phu Quoc Island, sun, beach, scooter tour. Magnificent fireworks on the night of the Tet festival (Chantal didn't want to take the bike, so considering the traffic, the taxi was a good idea). View from the hostel, at the Sea Star Hotel). Visit the ghost town to the south (not in the guidebooks!). Reproduction of Rome with the Colosseum, a bridge over the sea, extraordinary because it is deliberately split in half, so it cannot be used for crossing.

👉Day 18, Very sad, we left Phu Quoc to take the plane back to Hanoi and back.

We couldn't tell everything, because it would have been a real novel, our curious side made us discover many things, events, people, which enriched our knowledge of Vietnam, its 1000 years of war history". We always felt safe, even in crowded places, we enjoyed the typical small restaurants. It was a wonderful trip thanks to you, thank you so much.

Thank you again for your perfect organization, thanks to the whole team, to Madame Nhung, our correspondent during the organization of our trip, to the lady who took care during our stay and to our guides Zin, Tiem, Yummy, Ham and Lam.

With all our friendship,

Chantal & Daniel - Vietnam 2-Week Itinerary from Ha Long to Phu Quoc
