Overview

We offer an inspiring experience to explore the majestic beauty of Northern Vietnam.

A night train will then take you to Sapa, where you can immerse yourself in the stunning terraced rice fields and experience the daily life of the H'mong and Dao ethnic minorities.
Continuing your adventure, you'll be captivated by the breathtaking scenery of Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Cruise through the magnificent limestone islands and emerald waters.
