Touch down in Hanoi — a city of scooters and street food.
Check in, drop your bags, flop on the bed for two minutes, then head back out because… you’re in Vietnam, baby! This first day is all about easing into the chaos in the best way. If you arrive around midday (ideal!), you’ll have plenty of time to freshen up and wander through the buzzing day markets.
As the sun starts to set, it’s time for your first group dinner! We’re kicking things off with Hanoi’s best food tour. You’ll be tasting fresh noodles, sizzling grills, secret family recipes… and of course, a chance to watch Hanoians craft their famous Egg Coffee before you try the silky, sweet, iconic drink yourself.
By the end of the night, you’ll be full, happy, slightly obsessed with Vietnamese food already.
Welcome to Hanoi. Let’s go. 🚀
Today is all about getting to know Hanoi on foot. Head out on a walking tour through the Old Quarter, where narrow streets buzz with motorbikes, food stalls, and local life. This is the best way to understand the city’s energy, history, and everyday rhythm, with plenty of stops along the way to take it all in.
After the tour, you will experience one of Hanoi’s most famous traditions with an egg coffee demonstration. Watch how this surprisingly smooth and sweet drink is made before tasting it yourself in a tucked away café. Trust us, it’s incredible!
In the afternoon you can wander the Old Quarter, explore nearby markets, stop for lunch, or relax by Hoan Kiem Lake and watch the city go by.
As evening arrives, enjoy dinner wherever catches your eye or head out with the group. Your Trip Leaders will be around with recommendations for food spots, cafés, or relaxed bars.
Start the morning with a coffee and some breakfast in Hanoi before hitting the road. Today is a travel day, so take it easy, grab a final stroll through the streets, and get ready for the journey ahead.
Travel from Hanoi to Cat Ba Island by bus and ferry, watching the scenery shift from busy city streets to coastal views and open water. It is a longer journey, but a good chance to relax, chat, and take in the views along the way.
Once you arrive on Cat Ba, check into the hostel and settle in. The rest of the day is yours to unwind after travelling. Head out for food, explore the waterfront, or simply chill at the hostel with the group.
In the evening, enjoy a relaxed first night on the island. Grab dinner nearby or take a walk along the harbour.
A slower day that eases you into island life and sets you up perfectly for what comes next.
Today is a big one. After breakfast, head out for a full day boat trip around Lan Ha Bay, one of Vietnam’s most beautiful coastal spots. Less crowded than Ha Long Bay but just as impressive, this area is all towering limestone cliffs, calm green water, and hidden corners waiting to be explored.
Spend the day cruising through the bay, stopping to swim, relax on deck, and take in the scenery. There is plenty of time to jump in the water and enjoy being completely surrounded by nature.
Lunch is included on board, giving you the chance to refuel while floating among the islands. Good food and good views – no complaints.
By late afternoon, head back to Cat Ba with salty hair, tired from the sun, and a camera roll full of unreal photos. The evening is relaxed. Grab dinner or enjoy a quiet night after being out on the water.
Lan Ha Bay is one of those days that reminds you why you booked the trip in the first place.
Start the morning with breakfast and one last look at Cat Ba before travelling onward to Ninh Binh, also known as Tam Coc. Today’s journey takes you by ferry and coach, with changing scenery along the way as the coast gives way to countryside, rice fields, and limestone karsts.
Once you arrive, check into the hostel and take some time to settle in. The afternoon is relaxed and open. A great way to explore Tam Coc is by hiring a bicycle and riding through the surrounding countryside. Quiet roads, rice paddies, and dramatic cliffs make this one of the most scenic places to cycle in Vietnam.
As evening arrives, head out for dinner nearby or relax back at the hostel. This is a calm, low key night after a travel day and the perfect chance to soak up the peaceful atmosphere.
Today is a big day, packed with some of northern Vietnam’s most memorable experiences.
This morning, head out for the Tam Coc boat trip, a calm and scenic journey along the Ngo Dong River. You’ll float between towering limestone karsts, drift past wide green rice fields, and pass through three natural caves carved by the river over time.
One of the highlights is watching the local rowers steer the boats using their feet instead of their hands, a traditional technique that’s genuinely impressive and completely unique to this area. The whole ride lasts around two hours and feels peaceful, surreal, and very different from the cities you’ve explored so far.
Make the Most of It:
After the boat trip, enjoy some time back on land to grab lunch, wander the riverside paths, or simply take in the countryside before the journey continues.
Later in the day, travel by taxi to Ninh Binh and board the overnight train to Huế. Settle in, get comfortable, and enjoy another classic Vietnam travel experience as you head south through the night.
It’s a long day, but the kind that reminds you why Vietnam is so special.
Touch down in Huế this morning and kick off the day by dropping your bags at the hostel. After the overnight train, this is your chance to freshen up, grab a strong Vietnamese coffee, and get ready to explore a city packed with history and atmosphere.
Later, visit the Imperial Palace, the historic heart of Huế and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Step through towering gates into a maze of courtyards, temples, and royal halls, each with stories that stretch back centuries. It’s impressive, photogenic, and a fascinating glimpse into Vietnam’s imperial past.
With the afternoon free, explore more of Huế at your own pace. Wander along the Perfume River, check out local markets, or hunt down one of the city’s famous noodle spots for dinner. Your Trip Leaders will be around with suggestions if you want to dive deeper into the city or keep things relaxed.
Huế brings history to life and sets the tone for the next chapter of the adventure.
This morning, travel by bus to Hội An, one of Vietnam’s most charming and atmospheric towns. After checking into the hostel, take some time to freshen up before heading out to explore.
In the afternoon, join a walking tour of Hội An Old Town, weaving through yellow painted buildings, riverside streets, and hidden courtyards. You’ll learn about the town’s trading history and why it has become one of Vietnam’s most loved destinations.
Later, it’s time for one of Hội An’s most loved experiences: lantern making. You’ll visit a local workshop where artisans guide you step by step through the process, choosing colours, shaping the frame, and wrapping your lantern by hand. It’s relaxed, creative, and surprisingly fun, plus you get to take your finished lantern home as a souvenir.
As evening falls, the town lights up with glowing lanterns lining the streets and riverbanks. The night is yours to explore, wander the markets, grab dinner by the river, or enjoy a drink as boats drift past.
Hội An after dark is something special, and tonight you get to be right in the middle of it.
Start the day with one of the most unique experiences in Vietnam: basket boats. They might not be a theme park rollercoaster, but the spinning, bouncing, and laughter comes pretty close. Head out in the morning to the coconut waterways just outside Hội An, where local guides skillfully (and enthusiastically) paddle these round boats through narrow canals.
After the basket boats, the rest of the day is free time to enjoy Hội An at your own pace. Wander the Old Town, relax by the river, head to the beach, or slow things down with a delicious Vietnamese coffee stop.
This is the perfect afternoon for tailoring, souvenir shopping, or simply getting lost in the lantern lined streets.
Your Trip Leaders will be around with recommendations if you want ideas for food or afternoon plans.
A fun start, a relaxed finish, and another Hội An day done right.
This morning is all about slowing things down and seeing Hội An from a different angle. Hire a bike and explore the surrounding area, cycling past rice paddies, rivers, and quiet village roads just outside the Old Town. It’s an easy ride, super scenic, and one of the best ways to experience everyday life here.
Spend the rest of the day enjoying your final hours in Hội An. Grab lunch, squeeze in some last minute shopping, or relax somewhere shady before the journey continues.
In the evening, board the overnight train to Nha Trang. Settle in, get comfortable, and watch the scenery roll past as you travel further south through Vietnam.
A chilled day on two wheels, followed by another classic overnight journey.
Arrive in Nha Trang in the morning and head to the hostel to drop your bags. After the overnight train, it’s time to swap mountains and rivers for sun, sand, and sea.
The rest of the day is free time, and Nha Trang delivers when it comes to beach days. Stretch out on the sand, swim in the warm water, or find a beachside café and do absolutely nothing for a while. If you’re up for something extra, one of the best options is taking the cable car to VinWonders. The ride itself is a highlight, offering incredible views over the bay as you glide across the water to the island.
Today is all about recharging after a big travel stretch.
As evening rolls in, explore the beachfront promenade, grab dinner nearby, or watch the sunset over the ocean.
This morning, travel by bus from Nha Trang to Mui Ne, a chilled coastal town known for its beaches, sand dunes, and slower pace of life. After arriving and dropping your bags at the hostel, the rest of the day is yours to unwind and explore.
Spend some time on the beach soaking up the sun, swimming in the sea, or just enjoying the calm after a few busy travel days. When you’re ready we recommend heading out to one of Mui Ne’s most unique spots: The Fairy Stream.
The Fairy Stream is a shallow, ankle deep stream that you actually walk through, winding its way between soft red and white sand cliffs. The water is cool, the sand is smooth, and the scenery feels almost unreal, with colourful rock formations shaped by wind and water over time. It’s an easy, relaxed walk and a great chance to grab some photos without feeling like a big hike.
Nearby, you’ll also find sand dunes where you can try sandboarding if you’re feeling adventurous. It’s optional and mostly about having a laugh rather than being good at it.
As the sun starts to set, head back toward town for dinner or drinks by the beach. Mui Ne evenings are low key, breezy, and perfect for winding down.
Today you travel south to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam’s largest and most energetic city. After arriving, check into the hostel, drop your bags, and take a moment to reset before heading back out.
Later, head out on a walking tour to get your bearings and dive straight into the city’s fast paced rhythm. You’ll explore busy streets, colonial architecture, local neighbourhoods, and hear stories that bring the city’s past and present together. It’s the perfect introduction to a place that never seems to slow down.
Once the tour wraps up, the evening is yours and Ho Chi Minh City does not disappoint after dark. This is a great night to try classic street food like pho, bánh mì, or sizzling bánh xèo, or grab a table at a local spot and watch the traffic flow past. If you’re in the mood for drinks, rooftop bars and lively backpacker streets are never far away.
Your trip leaders will be around with recommendations for food, bars, and places to explore depending on the vibe you’re after.
Today you’ll dive into one of Vietnam’s most famous historical experiences with a Cu Chi Tunnels tour in the morning. These extensive underground networks were used by Vietnamese fighters during the war and offer a powerful, hands-on look at life below ground. Crawl through sections of tunnel (or peek from above), see hidden trap doors, and learn how people lived and worked in this remarkable system. It’s immersive, eye-opening, and a true slice of history that stays with you.
After returning to Ho Chi Minh City, spend the afternoon relaxing or exploring a little more on your own before the farewell group dinner. Sit down with the whole crew, share your favourite moments from the trip, and enjoy a meal together to celebrate two weeks of adventure, culture, food, and new friendships.
Tonight is about laughter, stories, and enjoying the city one last time before saying goodbye.
Today is all about traveling onwards and getting ready for your next adventure. After checking out of your Vietnam accommodation, your Trip Leader will guide you to the airport for your flight to Bangkok.

Say goodbye to Bali and get ready for island life. This morning we travel by taxi and ferry to Gili Trawangan, where sandy paths replace roads and the only traffic is bicycles and horse carts.
Once you arrive, check in, dump your bags, and head straight to the beach. Spend the afternoon swimming in crystal clear water and grabbing a cold drink.
And then… the night kicks off. Gili T is famous for its laid back days and wild nights, and tonight is your chance to experience it. Beach bars, DJ sets, dance floors in the sand, and a crowd that’s here for a good time. Your Trip Leaders will point you toward the best spots so you don’t miss a thing.
Island by day. Party by night. Gili T delivers 🌴🔥
Wake up to ocean views and salty air because today is all about the water. After breakfast, hop on a snorkelling boat and cruise around the Gili Islands, stopping at some of the best underwater spots in the area.
Expect clear turquoise water, colourful coral, tropical fish, and if you’re lucky, sea turtles gliding past like they own the place. Whether you’re floating, swimming, or fully committing to snorkel life, this is one of those days that reminds you exactly why you came to Indonesia.
Between stops, kick back on the boat, soak up the sun, and dry off with a cold drink in hand. No rush, no stress, just island time.
Back on Gili T in the afternoon, the rest of the day is yours. Chill on the beach, grab a smoothie, or squeeze in one last sunset cycle around the island.
From party lights to underwater sights, Gili T keeps the hits coming 🌊🐢✨
Wake up slow, grab a coffee, and jump on a bike because today is all about exploring Gili T at island pace. With no cars on the island, cycling is the best way to get around and the views are unreal the whole way.
Pedal your way past palm lined beaches, beach bars spilling onto the sand, and quiet corners of the island that feel a world away from last night’s party. Stop whenever you want for a swim, a coconut, or a photo that definitely deserves a spot on your camera roll.
Make your way around the island loop, ending wherever the vibes take you. A beach club for lunch, a shaded sun lounger, or straight back into the sea to cool off.
Spend the afternoon soaking up your final island moments, because days like this are what Bali trips are all about. Slow mornings, salty skin, and zero plans beyond enjoying it 🌴☀️
All good things have to come to an end, and today is about slow goodbyes and final island moments. Grab one last breakfast, swap photos, relive your favourite memories, and squeeze in a final dip in the sea if time allows.

All trips are confirmed subject to a minimum number of participants travelling on the trip. We will send out an e-mail to all participants and create a group chat as soon as the trip is confirmed so you can meet other travellers on the trip.
In the unlikely event that trips are cancelled due to insufficient numbers, we will provide everyone with a full refund. Flights booked before trip confirmation are at your own risk and will not be included in any refund.
It couldn’t be easier. Find a place that you’ve always been wanting to see on our ‘Upcoming Trips‘ page. Purchase your ticket and get excited for your new adventure!
