FAQ

Clear answers make the journey easier to choose.

A few practical notes help you understand the pace, comfort and flexibility before you speak with us.

What’s the vibe of this trip?

This is Vietnam in many layers: the quiet limestone landscape of Ha Long Bay, the royal heritage of Hue, the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An, and the vivid energy of Ho Chi Minh City. Along the way, you’ll meet local communities, taste regional flavours and experience everyday life from motorbikes, boats, bicycles and village paths.

It’s a journey for travellers who want to see the country’s icons while discovering the stories, people and small moments that give each place its character.

I have dietary restrictions. Will there be options for me?

Please share any dietary requirements, allergies or intolerances with us when you book. This gives our team the best opportunity to coordinate with the hotels, cruise, restaurants and local hosts along the journey.

The itinerary already includes a vegetarian lunch at a Buddhist nunnery in Hue. Other arrangements will depend on the destination and venue, so we recommend confirming any strict requirements with La Passion Travel in advance.

What should I pack for Vietnam?

Pack light, breathable clothing, comfortable walking shoes and a light rain layer. A scarf or an outfit that covers the shoulders and knees will be useful when visiting pagodas, monasteries and historical sites.

We also recommend sun protection and a smaller overnight bag for the Ha Long Bay cruise and night train to Hue. The journey includes city walks, a motorbike experience, boat trips and time in rural areas, so choose pieces that feel comfortable across different settings.

What’s the pace of the itinerary?

The pace is lively and varied, with several destinations woven into ten days. You’ll travel by road, overnight train, domestic flight and boat, with guided sightseeing and local experiences along the way.

There are also gentler moments built in: an evening aboard the Ha Long Bay cruise, free time in Hanoi and a full day to explore Hoi An at your own rhythm. It’s best suited to travellers who enjoy seeing and experiencing plenty while still having space for a few unhurried discoveries.

How much should I budget for meals and extras?

Selected meals are included and shown day by day in the itinerary. You’ll need a separate allowance for meals not listed, drinks, laundry, personal purchases, tips and any optional experiences you choose.

Optional activities in the current proposal range from small museum entrance fees and a VND 150,000 kayaking experience to food tours, cultural shows and private day trips. Larger extensions to Ninh Binh or Sapa will require a separate budget.

For private touring, the proposal also lists compulsory tipping at USD 3 per person for a full-day tour and USD 1.50 per person for a half-day tour or airport transfer.

What are the accommodations like?

The journey combines city hotels in Hanoi, Hue, Hoi An and Ho Chi Minh City with one night aboard a Ha Long Bay cruise. You’ll also spend one night travelling by train from Hanoi to Hue, giving the itinerary a more immersive, overland rhythm.

Hotel options are available in three-, four- and five-star categories, based on twin or double occupancy. Standard check-in is approximately 2:00–3:00 pm, with check-out around 11:00 am–12:00 noon.

Can we upgrade hotels or make it more private?

Cruise flow may adjust with weather, safety guidance or local operation, while the experience rhythm remains protected.

A slower Sapa walk made the trip easier on my wife

The Hanoi, Sapa and Halong route was one of the most memorable trips we’ve done in Asia. The tour guide was organized and easy to talk to. He gave context about ethnic culture in Sapa and helped us choose a slower walking option because my wife had a sore knee. Halong Bay was peaceful after the mountains. The team’s WhatsApp communication was fast, and all transfers were clearly explained. 🚐

Hana Nováková
Meaningful Sapa village visits, then a restful Halong cruise

Sapa was the reason I chose this tour, and it didn’t disappoint. Thanh guided us through Lao Chai and Ta Van with respect for the local communities, not treating it like a photo show. Fansipan was cloudy at first but still impressive. Cat Cat Village was busy, but the mountain views made up for it. Ending with Halong Bay overnight cruise was a smart plan because it gave us time to relax after the Sapa drives.

F
Fatima Al Mazrouei
My parents loved the cruise and appreciated the gentler pace

We traveled with my parents, so comfort mattered. Linh checked the walking pace during Marble Mountains and Hoi An, and the driver always tried to drop us close to the entrance. Halong Bay overnight cruise was their favorite part because it was scenic but not tiring. The seafood meals were good and staff on board were kind. Communication before the trip was clear, with no surprises in the itinerary. 😊

M
Marcus Tan
Vietnam highlights with time to explore on our own

Great itinerary if you only have around a week and want the classic Vietnam route. Hanoi was cultural, Halong Bay was relaxing, and Hoi An was beautiful at night. Ha was very helpful btw, especially with small tips like where to stand for Golden Bridge pics. The cruise cabin was clean and the food was good. We felt taken care of but still had time to explore a little on our own.

N
Nguyen Minh Anh
Every city change was clear and well coordinated

The La Passion team did a good job coordinating different cities. Hanoi to Halong, then flight to Da Nang, then Hoi An and Ba Na Hills all worked without confusion. Our guide Ted was patient when Ba Na Hills got crowded and helped us choose a meeting point. Seafood on the cruise was better than we expected. We also appreciated the reminders about luggage and pickup times. Simple, professional and friendly service.

P
Putri Wijaya
Slow Hoi An evenings and scenic Halong mornings

We were a couple from Spain and liked that this tour mixed city, bay, mountains and old town atmosphere. John was helpful in Hanoi and gave us good food suggestions after the city tour. Halong Bay was very scenic, especially the morning on the boat. Marble Mountains involved some steps, but the view was worth it. Hoi An at night was charming, not just for photos but for walking around slowly.

L
Lucía Vargas
A reassuring first Vietnam trip, with Hoi An our favourite

Our first Vietnam trip felt much less stressful because of La Passion Travel. Jasmine met us in Hanoi and helped explain the plan for the next few days. We saw the main city landmarks, then had a beautiful night in Halong Bay with nice seafood. Da Nang was an easy transfer and Hoi An Ancient Town became our favorite evening. The private car was clean, and the driver was careful on longer roads.

S
Santiago Rodríguez
Morning coffee on Halong Bay was my favourite moment

Halong Bay overnight was the highlight for me. Waking up early on the cruise deck with coffee was such a calm moment 🌊. The rest of the itinerary was also well handled, from Hanoi city tour to Da Nang and Hoi An. Tony was good at keeping our group together without making it feel strict. The La Passion team sent clear updates before every flight and transfer. Good choice for travelers who want north and central Vietnam in one trip.

V
Valentina Rojas
Six days of history, Halong seafood and central Vietnam

This 6 day route gave us a lot without feeling impossible. Hanoi was full of history, Halong Bay was peaceful, and central Vietnam added a completely different feel. Ben explained the Hanoi stops clearly and helped us settle into the cruise check-in. The seafood meals on board were fresh and generous. In Da Nang, Marble Mountains and Hoi An were both worth visiting. Ba Na Hills was busy, but the Golden Bridge photos came out great.

M
Mateo Fernández
An easy honeymoon with sightseeing and beautiful island water

My husband and I did this as part sightseeing, part honeymoon. Sophie helped keep things simple, from Saigon city stops to the flight to Phu Quoc. The beach time was the best part for us, but we’re glad we included the Mekong Delta too. Grand World at night was lively, and the 4 Islands Tour had beautiful water. La Passion Travel felt responsive and trustworthy throughout. ✨

E
Elsa Lindberg
A smooth arrival and a trip matching the emailed plan

A smooth trip from start to finish. Airport pickup in Saigon was waiting with our name, and the itinerary matched what we received by email. We liked the Mekong Delta more than expected, especially the small boat ride and tropical fruits. Phu Quoc was more relaxed, with fun stops at VinWonders and the 4 islands. Our guide was friendly but not too talkative, which we appreciated.

D
Daan de Jong
Phu Quoc was the break we needed after Saigon

Phu Quoc after Saigon was exactly what we needed. The city tour gave us a quick look at the main landmarks, then the Mekong boat trip slowed things down. In Phu Quoc, Vin Safari and VinWonders were easy days, and Grand World was great for evening photos. David from the team checked in often and answered quickly when our flight time changed. Felt safe and well looked after. 🌅

O
Olena Shevchenko
Dependable travel with culture, beach time and snorkelling

We are from Germany and wanted a trip that included culture but also beach time. This itinerary worked well. Saigon was busy but interesting, the Mekong day felt very different, and Phu Quoc was relaxing. Anna was helpful with airport transfers and local suggestions. The 4 Islands Tour was my personal favorite, especially the snorkeling stop. Nothing felt overly fancy, but everything was comfortable and dependable.

J
Jakub Kowalski
The kids still talk about VinWonders

Our kids still talk about VinWonders. The team arranged the Saigon tour, Mekong Delta day and then Phu Quoc very smoothly. Minh gave us reminders about swimwear, sunscreen and when to leave for the 4 Islands Tour. It sounds small, but with children it helped a lot. Grand World was colorful at night and the safari was better organized than expected. Good family-friendly service and quick WhatsApp replies.

E
Eleni Papadopoulos
Six days balancing city sights and a proper beach break

The 6 day Saigon and Phu Quoc trip was a good balance of sightseeing and holiday time. Thanh was our guide in Saigon and he made the War Remnants Museum and city stops easy to understand. The Mekong boat ride was relaxed, then Phu Quoc felt like a proper beach break. La Passion Travel managed the flight connection and hotel pickups smoothly. We didn’t have to chase anyone for updates, which I really liked.

E
Emre Yılmaz
Phu Quoc drew us in, Saigon and the Mekong added more

Phu Quoc was the reason we chose this tour, but the Saigon and Mekong days made the trip feel more complete. Linh guided us through the city tour and helped us with the domestic flight check-in, which was really appreciated. Vin Safari and VinWonders were easy with kids, and Grand World was fun in the evening. The 4 Islands Tour had clear blue water and enough time for swimming. 🏝️

Amina Hassan
History, river life and a beach day beyond Saigon

Nice southern Vietnam itinerary if you want more than just Saigon. John was friendly and didn’t overload us with too much information. Cu Chi was fascinating, the Mekong fruits and tea stop felt local, and Vung Tau gave us a beach day without needing another flight. The Jesus Christ Statue area had great views btw. Everything was on time and communication was simple.

C
Chinedu Okafor
I booked from overseas, and my parents came home happy

We booked this for my parents and they came back very happy. The driver was careful, the car was clean, and the guide checked if they needed breaks during the Saigon city tour. They especially liked the Mekong Delta boat ride and White Palace in Vung Tau. The La Passion team also answered my emails quickly before the trip, which made organizing from overseas much less stressful.

T
Thabo Nkosi
Jasmine's local tips made Saigon much easier to explore

Saigon felt much easier with a local guide. Jasmine helped us understand the city stops, especially Independence Palace and the Old Post Office, and she gave honest tips at Ben Thanh Market so we didn’t feel lost. The Cu Chi Tunnels visit was very interesting, and My Tho was a calmer day with boats, fruit and honey tea. Vung Tau beach was simple but relaxing. Good value and very responsive service from the team. ⭐⭐⭐

C
Chloe Anderson
One meal disappointed, but our guide listened and helped

We enjoyed the Saigon, Cu Chi, Vung Tau and Mekong itinerary a lot. The only small issue was that the restaurant stop on one day wasn’t really our favorite, but our guide Tony listened and suggested better local options for dinner later. Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong boat ride were the highlights for us. The team stayed in touch by WhatsApp and handled all transfers professionally. Still a positive experience overall.

E
Ethan Campbell
Thoughtful pacing for my parents through southern Vietnam

This tour gave us a good mix of city, history, river and beach. Mai was very kind and helped my parents with slower walking at the museum and White Palace. I appreciated that the team explained the plan clearly before each day, so we knew when it would be a long drive and when we had free time. The War Remnants Museum was emotional, but important. Vung Tau at sunset was a nice lighter ending.

S
Sophia Miller
Five days with friends, from Saigon to the coast

Our group of friends from Canada had a great 5 day trip around Saigon, Cu Chi, Mekong and Vung Tau. Nguyen kept the schedule moving but still gave us time to wander at Ben Thanh Market. The Mekong Delta boat ride was calm and the tropical fruit stop was fun. Vung Tau beach was breezy and the Jesus Christ Statue climb was worth it. Transfers were easy and the private car had good air conditioning. 🌿

O
Oliver Thompson
Respectful history tours with river and beach time too

Cu Chi Tunnels were the part I was most curious about, and Eric explained the history in a balanced, respectful way. The Saigon city tour covered all the main stops like Independence Palace, War Remnants Museum and the Old Post Office without feeling rushed. We also enjoyed the Mekong boat ride and honey tea near My Tho. Vung Tau was a nice change of scenery after the city. Very clear planning from La Passion Travel.

A
Alejandro García
A full short trip with Hoi An as the highlight

Short but packed trip. Ba Na Hills was cool and a bit misty, which actually made the Golden Bridge look dramatic. Vinpearl South Hoi An was a fun break from sightseeing, and the River Safari was better than I expected. Our driver was polite and always on time. The team checked in each evening, which felt reassuring. Hoi An at night was def the prettiest part for us.

G
Giulia Romano
We came for Golden Bridge and fell for Hoi An

Golden Bridge was the main reason we booked, but Hoi An became my favorite part. The La Passion team arranged a simple, clear 4 day route from Da Nang arrival to Ba Na Hills, Vinpearl South Hoi An and the old town. Ted gave good tips on where to eat after the tour and helped us avoid the busiest photo spots. It felt organized without being too strict. Good for first-time visitors to central Vietnam.

D
Diego Hernández
A central Vietnam trip that kept the children entertained

We chose this itinerary because our children wanted more fun activities, not just temples and museums. It was a good decision. Vinpearl South Hoi An had games, safari, water park and shows, so they were never bored. Our guide Ben helped us plan the day so we didn’t waste time walking in circles. Hoi An Ancient Town was also beautiful in the evening. The car was clean and cool, which mattered a lot in Da Nang heat.

C
Camila Oliveira
One late pickup, with the rest of the day well handled

Overall a very good trip. Pickup on one morning was around 10 to 15 min late, but the La Passion team informed us on WhatsApp and adjusted the timing so we didn’t miss anything important. Sophie was helpful at Ba Na Hills and knew where to take photos at the Golden Bridge without standing too long in the crowd. Vinpearl South Hoi An was great for our kids, especially the water park. Service felt reliable throughout.

L
Lukas Schneider
Our family could relax with tickets and transfers arranged

The Da Nang and Vinpearl South Hoi An tour worked really well for our family from Singapore. David was calm, organized and good with children. We didn’t have to worry about tickets, transfers or where to meet the driver. Ba Na Hills was busy but still worth it for the Golden Bridge and cooler weather. Vinpearl had enough activities for a whole day. Hoi An was a softer, slower ending to the trip ✨.
