What happens on expedition

Build your adventure

Meet the Sapa hill tribes

Trek through the Sapa Valley and encounter the diverse ethnic communities living in the region. Admire the colourful costume dress of the H’Mong people, traditionally in black with brightly coloured embroidery on their sleeves. Sleep in homestays to get a deeper glimpse of local life.

See it to believe it

Steeped in mythology, the magical islands of Ha Long Bay, the ‘Bay of the Descending Dragons’, were formed from jewels dropped from the mouth of dragons sent by the gods. Cruise through the turquoise waters of Ha Long Bay on your traditional junk boat, a UNESCO heritage site and one of seven new wonders of the world.

Meander the mighty Mekong

Taste fresh coconuts, sugar-cane and tropical fruits and watch the impressive spectacle of the floating markets. Known as the ‘rice basket of Vietnam’, the Delta is rich in nutrients generating a third of the country’s rice production from just 10% of Vietnam’s land mass.

Snorkel coral reef

Snorkel through coral reefs, feel hot white sand between your toes and relax on pristine beaches. Head to the beautiful and bustling Nha Trang Bay or explore the rest of Vietnam’s 3,000km coastline. Grab a bungalow on the beachfront, sling your hammock or head into the vibrant tourist towns, the choice is yours.

"There was a real sense of adventure and exploration. Sapa was really interesting as we were exposed to a different way of living and culture compared to the main cities.”"
