The journey from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh is a classic adventure, and there’s no reason why the kids can’t come too. In fact, we think Vietnam makes a brilliant family destination, mixing activities like boat trips in Halong Bay and visits to turtle breeding centres with time out on some of South East Asia’s finest beaches.

Selective Asia says
We think that Vietnam has everything you could possibly need for the ultimate family adventure in South East Asia.
Each holiday is tailor-made to suit your interests, tastes, budget and length of stay – and of course, the age of your children.
There’s Vietnam’s rich culture and temples but also plenty of time for beaches, water parks and other sites of interest to children whether it’s scrambling around in the Cu Chi Tunnels or a treasure hunt by cyclo in Hanoi’s Old Quarter.
Typically, a family holiday would include travelling the length of the country, with a few nights in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, an overnight junk experience in Halong Bay plus a few days or more in Hoi An to enjoy both the UNESCO-protected old town and the surprisingly undeveloped beach.
Vietnam has a host of great beaches. We’ll help you choose the best according to the likely weather pattern around your date of travel – options include Hoi An, Phu Quoc, Mui Ne and Con Dao.
You can experience the slower pace of the Mekong Delta with its floating markets, or the rice paddy valleys of Sapa or Mai Chau.
Vietnam also offers wildlife experiences, with the turtle and primate conservation centres at Cuc Phuong or staying in luxury safari tents at Cat Tien National Park.
We provide private guides for all our holidays and adventures, each of whom is highly experienced in looking after families. You will also benefit from your own private driver and vehicle so you won’t be cramped up in a bus or have your programme dictated by others.
