Welcome to a world where the colours are more vivid, where the landscapes are bolder, the coastline more dramatic, where the history is more compelling, where the tastes are more divine, where life is lived in the fast lane. This world is Vietnam, the latest Asian dragon to awake from its slumber. Lying on the eastern part of the Indochinese peninsula, Vietnam is a strip of land shaped like the letter “S”.

The north is known for Hanoi elegant, the country’s captivating capital, Perfume Pagoda - the only way to reach this sanctuary is floating along a narrow but extremely poetic stream by rowing boats, the beauty of Halong Bay and its 2000 limestone karsts, the citadel Hoa Lu and Tam Coc regarded as Halong Bay on land, nor the experience of trekking around mountainous Sapa.

Central Vietnam, the location of the ancient imperial city of Hue, Hoi An Ancient Town – quaint and charming. It might weigh you down - but in a good way - you’re bound to add kilos of made-to-order clothing to your luggage, this is fashionista heaven.

Down to the South, Nha Trang, one of the most beautiful bay in the world, modern life in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon), head west to the watery landscape of green fields and sleepy villages in the Mekong Delta.

Believe your senses, as you discover one of the most enriching, enlivening and exotic countries on earth.

Kindness!
