With its friendly locals, delicious food and incredible scenery, Vietnam is the ideal place for a family adventure. Find delicious cuisine at hole-in-the-wall eateries in Ho Chi Minh City, stroll the winding streets of Hanoi’s Old Quarter, laugh yourself silly at the water puppet theatre at Hoan Kiem and see ancient temples and pagodas alongside modern houses from a cyclo. Make your own colourful lanterns in UNESCO’s Hoi An, explore the Forbidden Purple City in Hue and enjoy a home-cooked meal with a local family. With 12 days to adventure from the exciting chaos of Ho Chi Minh to the towering limestone karsts of UNESCO World Heritage-listed Ha Long Bay, you and the kids will get all the highlights of diverse Vietnam in one neat package. You and your family will visit a number of temples on this trip, and it's important to respect the local custom. Arms and knees should be covered. A light scarf is a good idea for covering shoulders and arms when it’s hot.Your overnight train journey from Hue to Hanoi (Day 7) is quite long. The upside is you'll wake up in a thrilling new destination and experience travelling like a local. While bedding is supplied, some families opt to bring their own sleep sheets.
