Vietnam is one of my favourite places to visit. Every city has its own special charm, and there's endless amounts to explore. Sailing along Ha Long Bay feeling as though you're in another world, exploring lively Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh, or relaxing on a beautiful beach in Nha Trang - there's something there for everyone.

Where to go
Hanoi
Hanoi is a bustling and fascinating place – a whirlwind of colours, smells and sounds and a wonderful place to get a real flavour of life in Vietnam.
Discover moreHalong Bay
Over 2,000 limestone islets and plinths rise out from the emerald waters of the Gulf of Tonkin to make up the exquisite Halong Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Discover moreHue
Hue sits on the banks of the Perfume River and is another of Vietnam’s safeguarded heritage sites under UNESCO and an interesting blend of old and new.
Discover moreHoi An
With its pretty architecture and beguiling riverside setting packed into its neat size, Hoi An is small enough to stroll around and soak up its rich wealth of heritage.
Discover moreMekong River Cruises
Spanning 4,350 kilometres, the Mekong River is the lifeblood to innumerable communities across Asia. From its icy beginning on the Tibetan Plateau, the river then winds through China, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand and Cambodia before breaking into Vietnam’s Mekong Delta.
Discover moreHo Chi Minh
A booming economy has given Ho Chi Minh city (often still referred to as Saigon) a new energy and lease of life. Socially the city is flourishing with a sophisticated café culture, an exciting dining scene and burgeoning interest in eclectic art.
Discover moreLan Ha Bay
Limestone outcrops blanketed in lush vegetation rise up from the still, jade coloured water. Your boat glides smoothly across the glassy surface, the shapes and shadows of the islets changing as you navigate this watery paradise. This is La Ha Bay, the smaller, quieter and altogether more serene neighbour of Halong Bay.
Discover moreDanang
Danang is central Vietnam‘s largest city, an important port sat at the half way point between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh.
Discover moreCon Dao
An archipelago of 16 islands located off the south coast of Vietnam in the tranquil waters of the South China Sea, Con Dao is a tropical paradise of stunning natural beauty which spells adventure, relaxation and lazy sun-filled days.
Discover morePhu Quoc
A sleepy palm fringed island a short flight from Saigon, Phu Quoc is an idyllic retreat after exploring the highlights of Vietnam.
Discover moreNha Trang
The Nha Trang area is home to some of Vietnam‘s best luxury beach escapes, set in hidden coves well away from the vibrant town itself.
Discover moreSapa
Escape the heat of Hanoi as you travel through breath-taking rice terraces to the former French hill station and current trekking haven of Sapa.
Discover moreThe Northern Highlands
Rarely visited and sometimes not even accessible, Vietnam‘s cool Northern Highlands is a rural medley of diverse hill tribes, deep valleys and soaring mountains.
Discover moreNinh Binh and Tam Coc
Rather than a destination in its own right, Ninh Binh is an excellent location from which to explore the breathtaking and quintessentially Vietnamese countryside that surrounds it.
Discover moreDalat
With its cooler climate and French colonial feel, you’ll find the charming city of Dalat to be uniquely different from the rest of Vietnam. Known as “The City of Eternal Spring”, Dalat boasts a very temperate climate and its surrounding green countryside is blessed with lakes, waterfalls, evergreen forests and gardens.
Discover moreCan Tho
The buzzing cultural and commercial centre of the Mekong Delta, Can Tho sits on the southern bank of the Hua River, one of the Mekong’s main distributaries as it flows out past endless paddy fields into the South China Sea.

When to visit
Vietnam is warm year-round. There are two monsoon seasons which hit the south, central and northern parts of the country at different times. In general the start of the year is the best time to go.

Jacada planned our trip of a lifetime to Vietnam and Thailand in January/February 2024 for 3 weeks. From the moment we landed in Hanoi, they prioritized our entry through customs to a no wait line and transferred us to our guide and driver. It was seamless and professional the entire trip. We experienced the culture and people in authentic day…
We experienced a culturally rich tour of Vietnam. The excursions were fun and engaging and our accommodations lovely. Everything went off without a hitch. Keith and Cathy did a great job putting our trip together. Can’t say enough good things about Jacada
Well worth every dollar spent! Jacada provided a seamless, spectacular, fully supported travel experience. From carefully chosen itineraries, to welcoming and skilled guides, to drivers who arrived with cold towels and drinks, we felt supported, seen, welcomed and heard at every step. This was our first trip, but will not be our last!
Our Southeast (Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam) trip planned by Leanne Anglo and Cathy Jocubeit was perfection. We had the most wonderful time, and it was because Leanne and Cathy listened to what we wanted on the pre-planning calls before our trip and executed. Everything was either what we wanted or even better. From the tour guides to the accommodations…
