Jungle and Junks - Vietnam Famil Overview

Family Active Adventure Holiday in Vietnam including the Mekong Delta & Halong Bay

For a complete Vietnam experience for the family this adventure holiday is a true gem. Our journey starts in the capital Hanoi were we explore the narrow streets of the old town by bicycle rickshaw. The next highlight is the Mai Chau Valley. Here we see thatched bamboo huts set in a patchwork of brilliant green rice paddies and tended by women in conical hats, dense bamboo forest and traditionally built stilt houses of the Muong Hill Tribes. We enjoy a bike ride and overnight with these charming people and gain a little insight into daily life. It’s then onto the sensational Halong Bay, where we board a Vietnamese junk boat for a two day cruise around the island limestone towers. Sleeping on board there will be opportunities to explore caves and kayak in this very special scenery. We head south from Hanoi on the overnight sleeper train to Hoi An to enjoy some fun cultural highlights including a Vietnamese cooking session, a visit to the silkworm handicraft centre, make a little lantern and an optional fishing trip on basket boats. We visit Ho Chi Minh City, formerly known as Saigon, take a boat trip on the backwaters of the Mekong Delta and crawl around in the historically important Cu Chi Tunnels. Our family adventure holiday Vietnam ends perfectly with 2 full days of relaxation at a comfortable hotel in the laid-back coastal resort of Phan Thiet. Here we can all swim in the pool, enjoy water sports or just chill with a glass of wine after exploring this fascinating country.
