Vietnam

Hanoi alleys, Hoi An lanterns and Halong Bay

Culture·Adventure·Food & wine
The brief

Vietnam — Hanoi alleys, Hoi An lanterns and the long coast.

A two-week country at minimum. Hanoi for the old quarter, Halong Bay by junk for a single night, Hoi An (Four Seasons The Nam Hai) for the lantern town, the central coast (Six Senses Ninh Van Bay, Amanoi) for the beach close.

One of Asia's most rewarding cultural journeys, and still under-priced for what it delivers.
