Overview

Our 11-day, 10-night walking and cultural adventure runs the length of Vietnam from north to south. From the bouncing, bustling capital of Hanoi, the natural beauty of Halong Bay, the atmospheric imperial capital of Hue, and the charms of Hoi An to the modern-day life of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon), we'll experience the energy of Vietnam in stimulating jam-packed days. To further enhance our experience, we'll be accompanied by a local guide for the majority of the trip. Join us on this discovery tour of the highlights of this enchanting country! Together, we'll walk its cities and towns; take an overnight cruise on a traditional Asian sailboat; visit its temples, pagodas, tunnels, and museums; enjoy delicious cuisine; experience the warmth and charm of the Vietnamese people; and learn about its language, history, and culture. Our accommodations will be a mix of large and small hotels, an overnight train, and an overnight sailboat. **Please read the prospectus below [under Related Link(s)] for a detailed description of this trip and registration instructions.**
