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.

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.

Our trip to Vietnam, organized through Kimkim, was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we began planning, Long took care of every detail with professionalism, warmth, and deep local knowledge. The entire journey flowed seamlessly across Ho Chi Minh City, Hoi An, Hue, and Hanoi, with private tours, a dedicated driver, and beautifully selected 4- and 5‑star accommodations that made every stop feel special.

Long crafted an itinerary that allowed us to truly understand Vietnam’s rich and complex history — from its ancient dynasties to its chapters with China, France, and the USA. Each destination offered something unique, and our guides brought every story to life.

Some of the standout experiences included:

Cu Chi Tunnels — an eye‑opening look into Vietnam’s wartime resilience

Mekong Delta — floating markets, local crafts, and unforgettable river life

Hoi An & Hue — lantern-lit streets, imperial citadels, and incredible cuisine

Ninh Binh (Halong Bay on land) — breathtaking limestone mountains and peaceful boat rides

Halong Bay — a stunning cruise through one of the world’s most iconic landscapes

Every transfer was smooth, every guide was knowledgeable, and every hotel exceeded expectations. Long checked in regularly to ensure everything was perfect, and it truly was.

We couldn’t have asked for a better way to explore Vietnam. If you’re considering a trip, we highly recommend Kimkim and especially Long for an unforgettable, expertly organized adventure.

Bespoke Trendy Hotel Hanoi

We loved his hotel in Hanoi! At breakfast there were ambassadors that would walk around that were extremely helpful, the battery in our safe was low and she had the battery changed before we finished breakfast. In addition, all the staff were super friendly and attentive. The rooms were roomy in such a tight neighborhood and we loved the contemporary style. Location was great nice to be off on a semi quiet street. We stayed two times at Bespoke Trendy and wished we would have stayed there a third time instead of the Tirant hotel for our final stay in Hanoi.
