Vietnam

The 20th century saw Vietnam successively fighting off the French, the Americans and the Chinese, and it is now one of the most appealing destinations in South-East Asia, welcoming a new invasion – tourists, this time – with open arms. Any visit to Vietnam will benefit from a well-planned itinerary because geographically, the country is a long, narrow strip of land, and there’s a huge number places worth visiting but spread across the nation.

This is where Original Travel comes in, talking you through the best places to stay and visit, and tailoring an itinerary to your exact specifications. Must sees should include the Mekong delta in the south; more than 2,000 miles of coastline, endowed with some beautiful beaches and slick hotels; and cities such as Hanoi, Hue and Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), with their temples, historic buildings and French colonial architecture. We have visited them all and can give informed recommendations on where to stay, and arrange expert guides where required.
