Explore the wonderful wonders of Angkor with a new group of friends!

Begin the day at the gigantic Angkor Thom complex, where you can see the distinctive faces of Bayon Temple and the jungle-covered ruins of Ta Prohm (the iconic Tomb Raider Temple). Take a break and enjoy Cambodian food at a local restaurant in the Angkor Complex, but you have to pay yourself.

First, you’ll visit the magnificent Angkor Wat, then proceed to Phnom Bakheng, from which you can witness a lovely sunset in the sky. As only 300 people are allowed at the top, we provide you with ample time to take in the views. At night, we’ll head back to town and ensure that we drop you off comfortably at your hotel.

Enjoy some free time before our car arrives at your hotel to take you to the airport for your flight to Hanoi.

Upon landing, you’ll be warmly greeted by our guide and driver, who will take you straight to your hotel. Your room will be ready when you arrive.

Meals are on your own. Spend the night at your hotel in Hanoi.

At about 08:00 to 08:30 AM, your hotel will be visited by our guide and bus to start exploring Hanoi. Our first visit is to the oldest pagoda in Hanoi, the Tran Quoc Pagoda. Afterward, we will go to the Ho Chi Minh Complex so that you can see his mummified body as well as where he used to live. We will then visit the unique One Pillar Pagoda and then go to the Vietnam Ethnology Museum to learn more about the country’s 54 ethnic groups.

Afternoon, after lunch, go to the Temple of Literature, the first university in Vietnam. Then, visit Hoa Lo Prison, which is named the “Hell on Earth” during the French colonial period. The trip ends at around 04:30 PM when our bus drops you back at your hotel. You will have dinner on your own and stay overnight in Hanoi.

At 07:00 AM, our friendly tour guide will meet you at your hotel to begin the journey to Ninh Binh, located about 120 kilometers from Hanoi. Along the way, we’ll take a short 20-minute break to stretch and relax.

By mid-morning, you’ll arrive at Bai Dinh Pagoda, the largest in Southeast Asia. Explore its serene grounds and admire impressive features like the 500 stone Arhat statues, a 36-ton bronze bell, and a massive 100-ton Buddha statue.

Around 12:30 PM, enjoy a buffet lunch at a local restaurant, offering a variety of traditional dishes including goat meat and fried rice. Vegetarian options are always available.

In the early afternoon, discover Trang An – a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its tunnel-like caves and stunning river views. Take a peaceful boat ride through the breathtaking scenery, where scenes from “Kong: Skull Island” were filmed.

After the boat trip, cycle around a nearby village to see daily life in the Vietnamese countryside.

At around 04:45 PM, hop back on the bus for your return to Hanoi, arriving at approximately 07:00 PM.

Dinner is on your own. Overnight at the hotel.

After hotel breakfast, a cruise bus will transport you to Halong Bay, showcasing the Red River Delta’s scenic beauty. Upon reaching the harbor, board our boat and sail through emerald waters, exploring a stunning grotto with impressive formations. Then, settle into your overnight cruise ship, your gateway to Halong Bay’s iconic limestone structures.

Following a delightful onboard lunch, engage in various activities like kayaking and visiting floating villages. As evening arrives, enjoy a cooking demonstration and a delicious dinner onboard. You may join evening activities or simply relax, enjoying the peaceful bay.
