Top 5 Things To Do in Vietnam

Vietnam is filled with exciting and unique things to do in truly beautiful settings. There are plenty of activities and places to see that will capture your soul, including:

1. Visit Halong Bay. With 1600 limestone towers rising from its turquoise waters, Halong Bay is rightly considered one of Vietnam’s most beautiful spots.

2. Take a trip to Sapa Valley, the most indigenous region of Vietnam and the area where the Hmong minorities live, following a traditional lifestyle. It’s a great place to grasp the true culture of the country.

3. Get away from the madding crowd and go to historic Hoi An, Vietnam’s most atmospheric and delightful town. Once a major port, it boasts the grand architecture and riverside setting that befits its heritage and the noise and bustle of most 21st century cities is almost entirely absent.

4. Scale waterfalls in Dalat. The rugged terrain and forested hillsides makes Dalat perfect for outdoor activities such as canyoning (climbing up rock faces, clambering over boulders, and even abseiling down waterfalls).

5. Take a food tour in Saigon where an expert will guide you through a culinary adventure of Vietnamese flavors, textures, and colors.
