Best tours in Vietnam

The beauty of Halong Bay will astound all travellers! This labyrinth of 2,600 rocky islands is undoubtedly the highlight of a trip to Vietnam... Legend has it that a gigantic dragon made cuts in the mountains with its tail, letting the sea invade its crevices and only allowing the highest peaks to emerge. A few hours away, the Lan Ha Bay is smaller, but no less spectacular. It is still preserved from the crowds of tourists. You will find it to be quiet and wild. Sail on a Chinese junk through some 400 islands and sugarloaf-shaped islets covered in mist and vegetation: a true moment of grace! Also in the north, the little visited areas of Upper Tonkin await the traveller: among rebellious tribes, in a real Tower of Babel, you will find communities that have preserved their customs. These minorities speak about fifty different languages and still keep their traditions: their clothes, homes, and beliefs all differ from those of the rest of Vietnam... Sa Pa is an excellent base to explore these ethnic minorities. You will be charmed by the delicious fresh air of this town enclosed by a beautiful ring of mist-crowned mountains!
