A luxury holiday to Vietnam is a complex, richly rewarding experience. At Southeast Asia’s geographic and cultural heart, Vietnam is a proud country, often fought over, but never defeated.
The country’s S-shaped coastline winds from the dramatic karst limestone stacks of Halong Bay in the North, through the glorious beaches of the South China Sea down to the myriad, bustling waterways of the Mekong Delta in the South, with a backbone ridge of mountains and lakes in the Central Highlands.
The cities in Vietnam are fascinating: Glimpses of Chinese and French occupation remain in Hanoi, with pagodas punctuating leafy boulevards and the occasional scent of freshly baked baguettes emanating from cosmopolitan street cafes. Hanoi’s brash southern sibling, Ho Chi Minh City – still also known as Saigon – swarms with mopeds. Here you’ll find the harrowing War Remnants Museum and, an hour away, the Cu Chi Tunnels where the Viet Cong fought an invisible war.
