From the people who run the trips
Vietnam, explained by the people who live here
No listicles and no invented superlatives. These are the answers we give guests over email every week — when to come, how long you need, and what the big sights are actually like once you get there.

Vietnam is 1,650 kilometres long and has three different climates at once. There is no single best month — there is a best month for where you are going.

Halong Bay: day cruise or overnight?
The same bay, two completely different days out. What you actually get for the extra night, and when the day trip is the better call.
How many days do you need in Vietnam?
Three days, seven, ten, a fortnight — what each one honestly buys you, and the mistake that ruins more Vietnam itineraries than any other.
The Cu Chi tunnels and the Mekong Delta
Two day trips out of Saigon that explain the south better than the city itself does — one underground, one on the water.
Ba Na Hills and the Golden Bridge: what it is actually like
A French hill station turned mountaintop theme park, and the most photographed bridge in Vietnam. Worth a day — as long as you know what you are buying.
Phu Quoc with children
An island where the big attractions are close together and the sea is warm all year. What works with children, and what to plan around.
