Asia + Middle East

Vietnam

A long ribbon of stunning landscapes, fantastic food and fascinating history

Rich in culture and extraordinary landscapes, Vietnam spans the length of Indochina, with a never-ending coastline looking out to the South China Sea. Thrilling idiosyncratic cities, a complex history, warm, open people and the simply stunning cuisine lures visitors curious to experience one of Asia's most rewarding destinations.

From north to south, the culture, ideology and landscapes vary dramatically making Vietnam an exciting and extremely diverse destination. Let our specialist guides take you through the nostalgic colonial streets of Hanoi and explore the socialist legacy of the north, or discover the royal ruins of the Forbidden Purple City in Hue.

Hide away at one of Vietnam’s secluded beaches or cruise the waters of the Mekong Delta in style. Sample the delights of a traditional home-hosted meal or dine out in Saigon’s sumptuous modern restaurants. Vietnam has reinvented itself as one of Asia’s most fashionable destinations and with our help, you’ll experience the best of what the country has to offer.

Stories from Vietnam

“We spent the following day with a local family going to the market, visiting the temple, talking with the local mayor and eating a typical TET (New Year’s) lunch prepared by the family. The family prepared a feast… We could have never arranged such a day on our own!”

Rebecca Kalis

"We loved Ho Chi Minh City - a truly fantastic city and you were absolutely right about the Park Hyatt - wonderful. Our guide was a complete delight and a real gem. He was a delightful, kind man who has experienced much of the hardship of the changing fortunes of Vietnam over the past 50 years. He doesn't play on this, but once you get to know him the stories start emerging. He was an excellent guide and a real pleasure (and honour) to be with. I couldn't recommend him enough - his tour of the Mekong is really something rather special.... Thank you for all your help in sorting the trip out - it was a great success and we had a wonderful and very exciting trip."

Charles Garthwaite

“Our guide suggested stopping to visit the village famous for making conical hats. Once in the village, after asking around, our guide took us to the local hat maker. This small family business welcomed us with a traditional cup of tea. This was a moment that we could never have hoped to find on our own…”

"Just to say that we had an excellent trip, everything went like clockwork. All the guides were excellent, polite, professional, knowledgeable and on time. Thanks for organizing."

Martin Henderson

“What we most appreciated was the in depth knowledge of Vietnam and Cambodia provided by cazenove+loyd, the excellence and professionalism of the guides and drivers and the experiences that were personal to us and our interests.”

Rebecca Kalis

"All the guides were brilliant, they gave us so much information. Not only what you would expect, but their own views on the current political and social situations in their country. We especially enjoyed the architectural tours and our day on the Mekong (Temples at Angkor Wat are a given!). The sobering visits to the Killing Fields, the tunnels and the museums were extremely informative and, particularly in Vietnam, ‘good’ to hear the Vietnamese side. As ever – our thanks to you for the organisation and support to me, particularly, in the planning!"
