Southern Vietnam Holidays

For many, the south of Vietnam is Ho Chi Minh City and the vast flood plains of the Mekong Delta. Here, the southern limit of the country meets the South China Sea in a warren of twisting canals, palm groves and paddy fields. However, this is a region of surprises with many of Vietnam’s minority groups living in the highlands north of Ho Chi Minh City. Commonly known as Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City is the modern face of Vietnam – an energetic city of bright lights, bars, restaurants and a charming colonial centre. Head south to the Mekong Delta, visit river communities and colourful floating markets or join an upstream Mekong cruise to Cambodia. Further north, the minority villages surrounding Dalat, Buon Ma Thuot and Kon Tum provide an opportunity to experience traditional rural highland life. Every holiday and tour to southern Vietnam that we design is one-off, memorable and special.
