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

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.

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.

Ms. Trang was super amazing and understanding of the time differences and intricacies of international travel--17h time difference from Hawaii. She booked our itinerary from landing in Hanoi to departure from Hanoi, and accommodated all of our travel needs, including issues that I wasn't even aware of. She didn't make assumptions and instead asked us what we were interested in doing, while guiding me and making suggestions based on information I had shared with her of our travel preferences and accounted for travel time in order to maximize our first trip to Viet Nam. She booked us on 2 private tours in Hanoi, including a Russian jeep tour and local attraction tour. She even paid extra to expedite my husband's Viet Nam visa when she realized it had been delayed and was able to get it for him the night before we left for our flight. She also found me a seamstress who sewed my 2 custom-made suits, advocated for my husband and me to get an upgraded hotel room with windows, and reserved upgraded seats on our flight from Hanoi back to Tokyo. She also recommended Stellar of the Seas cruise in Halong Bay and booked a 4-day, 3-night cruise for us which was a perfect duration for us. It was unexpectedly easy and efficient to communicate through the KimKim app and Ms. Trang was very patient with me. She is the epitome of customer service and I will definitely use KimKim travel agency for my future international travel.
Ms. Trang had book Duc and a driver to pick us up at Hanoi airport while Duc gave us an introduction to the city . Our Hanoi City tours were with Ben and a driver, as well as Gracie and a driver. We all communicated via Whatsapp which was extremely helpful given the language differences. They all went out of the way to help us make restaurant recommendations and suggestions for local activities following the tours. Ms. Trang went above expectations and had carefully choreographed our entire trip to Viet Nam so that we wouldn't get lost and felt welcomed to learn about the country's history and beautiful surroundings.

Stellar of the Seas
quảng ninh

My husband and I were so impressed with our 4-day 3 night cruise on Stellar of the Seas. The boat was small and intimate instead of some of the large party boats we had passed by on the Stellar. There were approximately 20 guests on our voyage which gave us the opportunity to really get to to know the other travelers and staff working on the boat. The rooms on the boats were new and gorgeous. The staff welcomed us by showering us with rose petals, white glove service, and a private butler. Our butler's name is Boo and he had our bed decorated with rose petals for our anniversary. We were also gifted a delicious cake with sparklers and a bouquet at dinner! It was over-the-top luxury. The off boat excursions were fabulous, including a wooden rowboat trip through grottos with a fisherman and our group were excited to see wild monkeys during that trip. We also enjoyed learning Tai-Chi every morning from Thinh who was the resident tour guide on Stellar of the Seas. We were so glad that we had picked Stellar of the Seas for the opportunities to do kayaking, bicycling through a village, hiking through caves and up a tall mountain, and the rowboat trip. We made some new friends who we hope to keep in touch with after the cruise. And the views of all of the small islands in Halong Bay and Lan Ha Bay are so serene and beautiful. Stellar of the Seas is the best way to relax and decompress for a special occasion. There were several couples who were returning guests on the cruise!

Champton Hanoi Hotel

The front desk staff welcomed us warmly when we checked in; however, we were shocked when we were shown to our room and discovered that there were no windows to the outside, which is not what we expect from the USA. We were told by the manager that they had no more rooms with windows, so Ms. Trang from KimKim Travel called Champton to let them know that she had reserved a hotel room with windows, so the hotel upgraded us to a double-size suite with windows. Thank goodness or else my husband would have had a claustrophobic attack from the room with no windows. Otherwise, the breakfast buffet each morning was sumptuous and the view from the rooftop bar was spectacular. The location was perfect for wandering the streets of Old Hanoi by foot. We checked out too early in the morning on our last day to take advantage of the free breakfast. The hotel staff had prepared a breakfast box for their other guests who had early check-out times, but were delayed in preparing out boxes so we ate at the airport instead. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Champton.

Doris did an exceptional job planning our trip to Vietnam. She was incredibly patient throughout the entire planning process, truly listening to what we wanted and tailoring the itinerary perfectly to our style. She checked in multiple times during every step of the trip, which made us feel supported and well cared for from start to finish.
She found excellent tour guides and organized very comfortable transportation, making each day smooth and enjoyable. The overall flow of the trip was planned incredibly well — starting with more activity and exploration, and gradually easing into relaxation. It was exactly what we needed.
The places she chose for us to stay were absolutely incredible, and she went above and beyond by meeting up with our family during the trip and even bringing us gifts — such a kind and thoughtful gesture.
Doris is a true pro, and she made our trip unforgettable. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Our trip from start to finish was immaculately planned by Doris. She was receptive of our feedback and made sure to implement our changes where necessary. There were 5 adults planning this trip, all with different needs and requests and she fielded all of them with patience and grace. We were able to meet up with Doris in Hanoi and her sweet personality was memorable. She was able to pack a few highlights of Vietnam in only 10 days travel time - visiting Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Ha Long Bay and Phou Quoc. We had reliable drivers and tour guides in both the North and South and it eliminated a ton of stress from the family dynamic. Luggage, domestic travel, private transfers, tour guides, visa help, itinerary changes - you name it, she helped us with it. I would 10/10 recommend this service for anyone wanting to plan a seamless, enjoyable travel experience abroad, especially to a far and exhilarating country like Vietnam.
