6Day Package Vietnam Tour: Sai Gon - Hanoi - Ha long Cruise

6 days (approximately)
Pickup offered
Offered in: English

1. The journey to visit Saigon and Hanoi will give you like one or the other, not both.
2. Not that either city lacks appeal, but after visiting the two largest cities of Vietnam, you, too, will likely have your opinion formed.
3. A little farther away is Ha Long Bay. Ha Long Bay should be a priority for any trip to Vietnam. Massive karst rocks jut out of the water, looming above the touring boats.
4. One can easily spend a few days relaxing by the sea and it is also a nice reprieve from the madness in Hanoi.
