Welcome to Vietnam

Set before the magical backdrop of some of the most breathtaking landscapes in South East Asia, Vietnam’s rich and diverse heritage reflects a rare complexity of culture, history and style.

The far north is stunning, with jagged mountains and rice paddies, while the beach lined east coast extends to the south where the mighty Mekong flows to the sea. The country’s recent colonial history and colourful local tradi�ons rub shoulders with a past filled with ancient glory and tragedy.

Each city has it’s own charm and sampling local dishes when travelling is the fast-track to under-standing a country’s culture. The bustling chaos of local markets presents the opportunity to experience the true taste and smells of Vietnam.

BEST TIME TO TRAVEL

Experiences not to be missed
