5 Days in Vietnam - 5 Unique Itinerary Ideas

Turn a brief five-day vacation to northern Vietnam into an unforgettable discovery of Hanoi's secret gems and a visit to the beautiful river lands of Ninh Bình Province. You could also see the central coast and the ancient citadel of Hue or travel farther south beyond the bright lights of Ho Chi Minh City, where an exciting excursion to the Mekong Delta awaits. And if you're eager for a hike amid the rice terraces and humble villages of rural Vietnam, consider five days to discover the Pu Luong Nature Reserve.

1 Week in Vietnam - 5 Unique Itinerary Ideas

Make your travel plans wisely to get the most out of a week in Vietnam. Try a northern adventure that takes you to the colonial streets of Hanoi and the mountains of Sapa, or go on a southern tour of Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta. See highlights of the north and the south on an itinerary that also includes stops at coastal cities like Hoi An and Hue, or choose an off-the-beaten-path adventure to river caves, national parks, and country villages. The below itineraries cover all these options and more.

10 Days in Vietnam - 5 Unique Itinerary Ideas

With 10 days in Vietnam, you can embark on a highlights tour featuring the energetic cities of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City and spend a night onboard a cruise in Ha Long Bay. Or, for a more off-the-beaten-path tour, focus on northern Vietnam and hike through lush rice-terraced valleys. Vietnam is also the perfect place for foodies to hop between lively markets, while those seeking a mix of adventure and relaxation can focus on southern Vietnam's villages and the beach-studded island of Phu Quoc.

2 Weeks in Vietnam - 5 Unique Itinerary Ideas

With two weeks, you can travel the length of Vietnam, covering the must-see classic highlights from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi as well as exploring lesser-visited locales in and around the mountains of Sapa. Alternatively, check out the sights as you dine around the country on a food-themed tour, or add a coastal visit in the country's south to spend some downtime on the beach. If you prefer to mix the highlights with cultural immersion, consider mingling with locals in their daily life on the Backroads of Vietnam option.

How Many Days to Spend in Vietnam

When plotting your grand adventure in Vietnam, try to visit both the north and south, as this country packs a lot into a relatively small size. It's possible to see both regions in just a few days, but the longer you have, the more excursions you can take, like boat tours, mountain hikes, and visits to ethnic villages. And if time isn't an issue, add in trips to the central coast, northern bays, scenic river deltas, and more.

Best Time of Year to Visit Vietnam

Vietnam is a long, skinny country bookended by extremes: the northern areas bordering China are mountainous, while the Mekong Delta in the south is tropical. In between are vibrant cities, temperate highlands, and a huge range of natural attractions. While you can visit at any time of year, it's important to plan where you go around the country's climatic differences—you won't want to hit the beaches in summer, for example, or the northern mountains in winter. Read on for more tips on when to visit Vietnam.

I started booking a 5 day long weekend trip with Long in March. We texted, had video chats, and tweaked the itinerary over two weeks. He was exceptionally receptive to my desire to cram as much in as possible and that I wanted history, culture, and some relaxation. My daughter and I landed, were expedited through immigration and customs, immediately met by our guide and driver. Long secured us a reservation at a Michelin Star restaurant for our first night. Our accommodations at GM Premium Hotel were lovely, the staff is excellent. Annie especially. She greeted us warmly each day and provided personalized suggestions via WhatsApp. We had a full day history tour. Then the were transferred to a beautiful cruise aboard the Lyra in Ha Long Bay. We stayed one night. Our driver Viet was always on time. Our transport van was very comfortable and always had water. Tin, our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. We had a good tour our last night that ended on train street. Truly and wonderful experience start to finish. Long evening came to meet me at our hotel on day 1 to welcome me to Hanoi in person. I highly recommend Long and Kim Kim.

This hotel is centrally located. Has a wonderful staff, clean rooms with good sheets, pillows and towels. Annie was our contact at the front desk and she is excellent. My next visit I would request a room at the end of the hall to reduce noise from other guests. The included breakfast is delicious.

Overall, working with Trang has been amazing!! She is well organized, fast responsive, kind and pleasant to work with well! She is considerate and listens to customers well. Overall flow of the teip from Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam was outstanding! When we had an issue with hotel in Cambodia, Trang fixed it quickly and upgraded our room also :) most all guides and drivers were good and very knowledgeable and worked with us well. Best were two woman guides, Ms Susie in Chiang Mai and Ms Chandara in Siem Reap ... Susie and Chandara were exceptional in all aspects! Least effective was guide in Hanoi (Mr Quyet)... not very knowledgeable, poor planner and did not display basic guide tasks such as reviewing plans for the day ahead, prepping customers for unfamiliar experiences by explaining procedures and allowing for questions. Best of all drivers who was above and beyond in every aspect Mr Bo in Hanoi ... great trip overall. Will be more than happy to work with Ms Trang again for trips :)
