Why Embark on a Vietnam Tour?
Locals affectionately call their home country Vietnam a "bamboo stick with two rice bowls". This is due to the elongated shape of the Southeast Asian coastal state. In the north and south of Vietnam, there are two fertile river deltas, which are used for rice cultivation - the "rice bowls".
Between the delta of the Red River in the north and the Mekong Delta in the south, the "bamboo pole" is home to an exciting mountain landscape. It contrasts with the miles of flat sandy beaches along the coastline. Whether culture lovers, sun worshippers or adventurers - a trip to Vietnam promises all travelers an unforgettable experience.

What to See During Your Vietnam Vacation
Vietnam offers fantastic sandy beaches - partly touristically developed, partly natural. The warm tropical climate invites you to swim almost all year round. Numerous sights await you in the capital Hanoi. If you prefer more activity during your vacation, you can try out various water sports on the beach in Mui Ne, in the city of Phan Thiet. The clear water also tempts you to go diving, where you can admire a fascinating underwater world with colorful corals and fish.

Where to Go on a Vietnam Vacation?
Halong Bay
So beautiful that it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994, Ha Long Bay captivates with its sheer unnatural beauty - thousands of forested islands rise up out of the emerald green water. The best way to explore the most beautiful corners of Halong Bay is the traditional way: on a junk trip. On this classic ship you will sleep in comfortable cabins and can enjoy the beauty of Halong Bay on deck.
May Chau
Outside the Vietnamese capital Hanoi, the landscape is transformed into wide open rice fields, majestic karst mountains and picturesque bamboo villages. Mai Chau is at first glance a small rural valley. However, the inhabitants preserve their culture and traditions - many of them still live in traditional stilt houses, cook typical Vietnamese food and make a living from rice cultivation.
My Son
The temple city My Son is located in the middle of the jungle in central Vietnam. It comprises a large complex of religious relics with more than 70 architectural works, including temples and towers built of red bricks. The UNESCO World Heritage Site was the cultural and religious center of the Champas from the 4th to the 13th century.
The Floating Market of Cai Rang
Visiting floating markets is one of the most exciting activities you can do in Vietnam. Cai Rang's floating market is the largest in the entire Mekong Delta. During the early morning hours, the waterway becomes a labyrinth of hundreds of boats filled with exotic fruits such as mangoes, coconuts, papayas and pineapples.
Sapa
A former French mountain station, Sapa is now a popular destination for travelers. In the northwest of Vietnam, it is picturesquely embedded in the Hoang Lien Son mountain range and overlooks the terraced rice fields, which seem almost mystical in the morning mist. In addition to the spectacular views, the indigenous mountain people, the H'mong and Dzao, make up the unique charm of the city. Less
