Day 1

Replete with intricate temples, immersive museums, and gastronomic delicacies, Hanoi will surely enchant you! The capital of Vietnam, bustling Hanoi is the perfect center for your next adventure in southeastern Asia.

A host of delectable eats are available at your fingertips in this vibrant city. From the classic pho, with rice noodles and a hearty beef broth that will instantly warm you, to bún chả, filled with pickled veggies, vermicelli noodles, and flavorful pork, there are plenty of culinary delights to satisfy your appetite! A trip to Hanoi wouldn’t be complete without tasting the iconic bánh mì, a baguette stuffed with pâté, cilantro, and hot chilies, which represents the city’s unique blend of Vietnamese and French influences.

Hanoi’s many museums provide a fascinating look into the cultural, colonial, and military history of Vietnam. Exhibits at the National Museum of Vietnamese History detail the country’s period of colonization by the French, while the Military History Museum and the Hỏa Lò Prison offer a comprehensive look at the effects of the Vietnam War. Be sure to visit the Thăng Long Imperial Citadel, a UNESCO World Heritage site located at the center of Hanoi, brimming with centuries-old artifacts and a favorite monument for many tourists to Vietnam.

Stunning temples abound throughout Hanoi, offering both spiritual retreat and breathtaking beauty during your trip to this vibrant city. The bright crimson tiers of Trấn Quốc Pagoda are instantly recognizable; set on a peaceful lake, this Buddhist temple provides a serene backdrop for exploring ancient treasures and lighting incense in reverence to the Buddha. Equally beautiful Bach Ma temple in Hanoi’s Old Quarter will astound you with its rich hues of red and gold. Visit the elaborate shrine, the temple’s central site for prayer offerings to Confucius.

No matter what you choose to do, Hanoi’s vibrancy will astonish you!


Day 2

Halong Bay, located in northeastern Vietnam, is a stunning UNESCO World Heritage site known for its emerald waters and towering limestone islands. This natural wonder offers a variety of activities for visitors, including cruising, kayaking, snorkeling, and exploring extraordinary caves like the Sung Sot. Visitors can also experience the unique cuisine and culture of the floating fishing villages, where locals have lived on the water for generations.

This mystical and serene bay is celebrated for its rich biodiversity and profound historical significance. Home to over 200 species of fish and enchanting marine creatures like the endangered Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin, Halong Bay is a paradise for nature lovers and marine enthusiasts. Additionally, archaeologists have found evidence of human habitation dating back tens of thousands of years back to the late Neolithic era.

The bay's name, which means "Descending Dragon" in Vietnamese, is derived from a local legend of dragons being sent by the gods to protect the Vietnamese people and visitors can’t help but notice the rock formations bearing a striking resemblance to a dragon’s scales and tail. This unique landscape has also served as a backdrop for several movies, including the James Bond film "Tomorrow Never Dies" and "Kong: Skull Island". Whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, or a glimpse into Vietnam's rich cultural heritage, Halong Bay offers an unforgettable experience.

Day 8

Striking pagodas, historic monuments, and bustling markets await you in Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s capital and former seat of the Khmer Empire on the banks of the Mekong River. South of the country’s iconic Angkor Wat temple, Phnom Penh is the perfect urban center to begin your adventures in Cambodia!

Though less frequented than Siem Reap’s Angkor Wat, Phnom Penh boasts beautiful Buddhist temples of its own. From Wat Phnom, the towering pagoda surrounding by an exquisite botanical garden, to the sparkling Silver Pagoda, which lies mere steps from the city’s golden Royal Palace, Phnom Penh offers plenty of spiritual landmarks ideal for reflection and guaranteed to leave you in awe. Travel two blocks from the Silver Pagoda to visit the bright red National Museum of Cambodia, which holds thousands of centuries-old Cambodian artifacts and will immerse you in the history of Khmer culture.

Phnom Penh’s dark (and fairly recent) past still haunts some of its most visited landmarks. Choeung Ek Genocidal Center and Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum are vital pieces of this city’s history and detail the brutal effects of the Khmer Rouge’s occupation of Phnom Penh after the Cambodian War. These essential monuments will give you a deeper understanding of and appreciation for the city as it stands today.

After exploring Phnom Penh’s famous monuments, take time to unwind and savor the city’s vibrant social life! Eat your way through the Phnom Penh Street Market to enjoy amazing street food, browse the Old Market for fresh and local fruits, or sit in one of the city’s many restaurants or distilleries to taste fresh made noodles and sweet rum.
