Explore Vietnam in Style

Once you have arrived at Tan Son Nhat International Airport, a representative meets you for your private transfer into Ho Chi Minh City, a 60 minute drive without a guide, taking you into the city's central districts. Ho Chi Minh City, still affectionately known to locals as Saigon, is Vietnam's largest city and its commercial heart, blending a fast-paced modern energy with reminders of its French colonial past.

After checking in to your accommodation, the rest of the day is free to settle in ahead of three nights in the city.

Please note: Your representative will be waiting in the Arrival Hall (Columns 9-10 in the International Terminal, or A1-A2 in the Domestic Terminal) holding a sign with your name.

Please note: This transfer allows for three bags.

After breakfast, the day is yours to explore Ho Chi Minh City further. You could visit the city's Opera House and take a walk along the Saigon River, or spend some time browsing the local markets.

Today brings a second free day in Ho Chi Minh City before you head into the Mekong Delta tomorrow. You could visit the Reunification Palace and Notre Dame Cathedral, both within easy reach of the city centre, or simply take some time to relax before the journey ahead.

In the morning, a private driver collects you from your accommodation for the drive into the Mekong Delta - about two hours, without a guide, in an air-conditioned vehicle with bottled water and toll fees included.

Arriving at Cai Be pier, you board a traditional wooden boat and cruise through the Cai Be floating market. Trade has shifted inland in recent years, so the market is quieter than it once was, but it still offers a glimpse of daily life on the river. From here, you disembark to visit a local workshop producing coconut candy and pop rice, learning about the traditional techniques behind both.

Back on board, the boat continues toward Lady Five canal (or Bay Buoi canal), where you switch to a rowing sampan for a 30-minute ride through the narrow waterways. Re-joining the boat, you cruise upstream along the Mekong River toward Vinh Long, disembarking for a short walk to the home of Mr Ba Linh, a local resident, for lunch. The meal brings together a range of Mekong Delta specialities reflecting the region's varied cuisine.

After lunch, the cruise continues toward Vinh Long, stopping en route at a floating fish farm before crossing the Co Chien river to visit a local pottery-making factory. Back at the pier, you say goodbye to the boat crew and continue by road to Can Tho, the largest city in the Mekong Delta, where you check in to your accommodation for a two-night stay.

You can start the day with a wander around Can Tho's waterfront gardens and backstreets, and if you'd like to get out on the water, it's possible to arrange a boat trip out to the area's floating markets and canals. The rest of the day is otherwise free to enjoy at your accommodation.

This morning, after breakfast, you make your way to Tra Noc Airport for a short flight to Phu Quoc, departing at around 11:25 am and arriving at 12:35 pm.

On arrival, a representative meets you for your private transfer to Duong Dong Town Center, a 30 minute drive without a guide. Phu Quoc, Vietnam's largest island, sits in the Gulf of Thailand and is known for its clear waters and white sand beaches. You check in to your accommodation for a five-night stay on the island.

Please note: The transfer driver will wait up to 90 minutes after your flight lands.

Please note: This transfer allows for three bags.

After breakfast, you can head into Duong Dong, the island's main town, where the market and the town's lighthouse are popular spots to explore. The rest of the day is free to enjoy your accommodation and surroundings.

Today you have free time to relax, with a number of quieter beaches a short distance north or south of Duong Dong if you would like to spend time by the sea.

Today brings another free day on the island, with Bai Sao beach in the south near An Thoi a popular option for those wanting to spend time on one of Phu Quoc's best-known stretches of sand.

Another free day awaits, with the option to take a boat trip out to nearby islands such as Hon Mong Tay for a change of scenery, or simply spend time relaxing at your accommodation.

After your final breakfast, a driver collects you from your accommodation reception for the private transfer to Phu Quoc International Airport, a 30 minute drive without a guide, bringing your tour to a close.

Please note: The transfer driver will wait up to 30 minutes at the hotel reception before the scheduled pick-up time of 9 am.
