Giorno 5 — Hanoi

Breakfast, Depart early to explore one of the most beautiful natural sanctuaries in Vietnam and Asia in the calm of the early morning: Trang An Nature Park, which constitutes the central and largest part of the mountain complex known to the world as "the terrestrial Halong Bay". UNESCO has indeed included it among the world heritage sites. Mighty cliffs rise from the surrounding countryside, reaching heights of up to 200 meters. They are crossed by vast waterways that over the millennia have carved a dense network of caves of various sizes and lengths, allowing navigation throughout the entire area. The exploration of the place is done by rowing small boats that, thanks to their tiny dimensions, allow access even to the narrowest caves. At the end of the navigation, lunch will be served in a local restaurant and then return to Hanoi, estimated to arrive around 2:30 pm. The afternoon is dedicated to exploring Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam and a city with a millennial history. You will visit the "Temple of Literature", an ancient religious center and "university of worship". Then you will reach the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, the father of modern and unified Vietnam (which can only be admired from the outside), and then the Presidential Palace (external visit). You will then transfer to the Old Quarter and its bustling, picturesque, and exotic market. The Old Quarter surrounds the Central Lake (Hoan Kiem Lake or "Lake of the Returned Sword") on three sides, with a small island in the center where the sacred Ngoc Son Temple stands. Visit the temple and free time to enjoy the bustling and picturesque life of the neighborhood. Return to the hotel at the end of the visits., dinner free PLEASE NOTE:

Giorno 6 — Hanoi → Halong Bay

Breakfast, early in the morning departure for, Halong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most spectacular places in Vietnam. Almost 2000 islands, islets, cliffs, and rocks dot the bay, and just as many follow the coast up to the border with China. The legends surrounding the bay and the hyperboles used to describe it create very high expectations, which can be somewhat disappointed because this stretch of coast is also one of the most industrialized regions in Vietnam and the bay is cut in half by the route of merchant ships, not to mention the large number of tourist boats. The months from November to March are the coldest and rainiest. That being said, the scenery provided by the caves where stalactites and stalagmites create the most extraordinary settings, the water, and the shimmering of phosphorescent plankton is very suggestive., I board a traditional wooden junk boat, which navigates through a myriad of islands, islets, cliffs, and rocks, within which caves open up where stalactites and stalagmites create the most extraordinary scenery. Lunch and dinner on board are based on fish and seafood.

Volo

Giorno 7 — Halong Bay → Hue

Giorno 8 — Hue

Breakfast, At 8:00 AM, departure with the guide for a visit to Hue, the seat of the great Capital of the Annamite Kingdom under the Nguyen Dynasty. At that time, Hue was the most influential city in Southeast Asia, rivaled in importance only by Bangkok and Mandalay. Besides their power and influence, the Nguyen emperors of the 19th century are also remembered for the superb beauty and grandeur of their tombs, which were built in the hilly areas south of the great Song Huong, the “Perfume River.” Of particular interest is the funerary complex of Emperor Tu Duc. Not far from the imperial tomb lies Thuy Bieu, a charming rural village that offers a glimpse into the relaxed daily lifestyle typical of central Vietnam. Cross the village on an engaging bike tour, with several stops to enjoy the local atmosphere. One stop will be at the home of a painter who decorates the famous Vietnamese conical hats, which will be given as gifts to participants. Lunch will then be hosted in the private home of a local family. Afterwards, return by car to the historic center of Hue, located north of the great river. The Imperial Citadel was its heart. Even today, long artificial canals connected to the river surround it within a gigantic quadrilateral-shaped island which, together with its massive walls, served defensive purposes. At the center of the Citadel stood the “Forbidden City,” laid out according to a typically Chinese design. Today, among its ruins, it is still possible to admire the audience hall, entirely constructed of finely carved wood, along with various administrative and religious buildings. Nearby is also the typical local Dong Ba Market. Along the route to the Citadel, stop at the sacred Thien Mu Pagoda, dedicated to a distinctly local version of Mahayana Buddhist worship. The evening will instead be dedicated to the vibrant atmosphere of street food! Through a gastronomic tour (departure from the hotel by 7:30 PM) aboard the typical cyclo, ride through the bustling streets of the city center in search of the finest local delicacies. The first stop will be at a small stall where you can taste pancakes with grilled pork. Afterwards, sample local desserts made from sweetened bean soups. Return to the hotel at the end of the visits.,

Auto

Giorno 9 — Hue → Hoi An

Breakfast, At 8:00 AM, departure from Hue heading south toward Danang Province (approximately 100 km, 2 hours and 30 minutes). The two provinces are separated by a natural barrier formed by an extension of the Annamite Range reaching all the way to the sea. Arrival in Danang, the third largest and most populous city in the country, which in recent years has experienced continuous economic development. Danang is home to the important Cham Sculpture Museum, dedicated to the ancient Cham people, an Indianized culture that settled in what is now central-southern Vietnam from the beginning of the first millennium AD. Visit the museum and then continue towards the ancient town of Hoi An (30 km, 45 minutes), once an extremely important port along the main Asian maritime trade routes connecting China and Japan with the rest of the continent. Shipping companies from various origins established real logistical centers in Hoi An, making it a meeting point of different cultures, traditions, customs, and lifestyles. Today, UNESCO has declared the entire historic center of Hoi An a World Heritage Site. Before reaching Hoi An, stop at Tra Que, an inland village famous for its vast vegetable gardens stretching as far as the eye can see. Enjoy a walking tour through the gardens to collect fresh vegetables needed to prepare a delicious lunch during a local cooking class. In the afternoon, enjoy a walking tour of the ancient quarter of Hoi An, visiting the “Japanese Bridge,” the old merchants’ houses, and the temples of the Chinese clans, including the Fujien Assembly Hall. Accommodation at a hotel near the historic area. Dinner at leisure and free evening.,

Giorno 10 — Hoi An → Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City)

Breakfast, Check-out and transfer with driver only to Danang Airport for the flight to Saigon. Upon arrival at Tan Son Nhat Airport in Saigon, meet and greet with the local staff and transfer to the hotel. Check-in to the rooms (officially available from 2:00 PM). In the early afternoon, visit the famous War Remnants Museum, where the history of the Second Indochina War, better known as the “Vietnam War,” is retraced through an extensive and detailed collection of photographic images. Afterwards, enjoy a walking tour of District 1, the heart of the city. During the walk, admire from the outside several colonial-era buildings constructed at the end of the 19th century, including Notre Dame Cathedral (closed for renovation works until early 2027; external visit only), the Opera House, and the building that now houses the Central Post Office. The tour will also include the large complex of the Reunification Palace. Return to the hotel at the end of the visits. Meals on your own and free evening. PLEASE NOTE:

Giorno 11 — Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) → Can Tho

Breakfast, Around 8 o'clock departure heading south, towards the area known as the "Mekong Delta". Here, a quarter of the entire Vietnamese population lives. After about two hours of transfer, we will reach the port of Hung Vuong, near the famous town of Ben Tre. From here, we will sail on a motorboat along one of the main branches of the Delta, until we reach a remote rural area crossed by a dense network of narrow canals covered with vegetation, where we will change boats and opt for a small rowing Sampan. The navigation continues, admiring the lush vegetation alternating with coconut palm plantations, until we reach a local homestay for lunch with local specialties. During the navigation, there will be several stops to admire local farmers and artisans at work, including those involved in coconut processing, for example. To fully explore the Ben Tre area, it will also be necessary to move around with typical tuk-tuks. Lunch and further continuation south towards the city of Can Tho, the fifth largest city in Vietnam in terms of population. While Ben Tre is located along a branch of the "Thien" (or "First"), the first major arm of the Mekong Delta that you encounter when coming from Saigon, Can Tho is instead located on the "Hau", the second major arm. Thanks to its vast size and strategic location in the heart of the Delta, Can Tho is commonly considered the "Capital of the Delta". Before reaching it, we will make a stop in Vinh Long, the capital of the homonymous province, where we can admire the lively and bustling fruit and vegetable market with frenetic customers crowding among the goods displayed on the ground, moving around on motorcycles. Arrival in Can Tho in the late afternoon., dinner free,

Auto

Giorno 12 — Can Tho → Chau Doc

Breakfast, At 06:20 departure for the day's visits. The commercial heart of the entire Delta is the Cai Rang market, on the outskirts of Can Tho, which will be visited by boat. Here, the products of the crops that cover the areas around the Delta are traded, easily transported by waterway. In Cai Rang, everything happens on boats. The best time to visit the market is in the early morning. This is, in fact, the most important time for negotiations thanks to the presence of a large number of farmers and traders. The junks, loaded with tropical fruits such as mango, rambutan, lychee, pineapple, mangosteen, as well as rice, vegetables, spices, roots, and other typical products of the area, are scattered in disorder, occupying more than a kilometer of the busy river. The fresh market, on the other hand, is on the river banks. We will cross it, savoring its smells and colors, before continuing our journey that will take us today towards the nearby border with Cambodia. A few kilometers from the border, we come across a place of unparalleled natural beauty: the Tra Su Nature Reserve, a gigantic swamp covered by a dense and impenetrable cajuput forest. Among these trees, about 70 species of large endangered water birds live, and Tra Su is one of the few places where they can still be easily spotted. We will have to move silently and motionless, on small rowing boats. The final destination of the day is Chau Doc, the capital of the border province, where the Vinh Te canal meets the Hau River. The Vinh Te Canal was dug by the French during colonial times to mark the border between Vietnam and Cambodia. We will explore the canal by boat, with rudimentary houses on high stilts lining both banks. Here, fish farmers live and build large cages mounted under their floating houses! Feeding the fish is easy and fast for them: they can do it comfortably from their living room, throwing the feed between the nets placed along the floor! Accommodation in a hotel near Chau Doc at the end of the visits., dinner at the hotel,

Auto

Giorno 13 — Chau Doc → Phnom Penh

Breakfast, At 07:30 transfer to the border, completion of immigration procedures and meeting with the Cambodian guide for the transfer to Phnom Penh (140km, about 3 hours). Phnom Penh is known as "the city of the 4 rivers". It is here that the Thien and Hau, the two main branches of the Delta, originate. A third branch goes north: it is the Tonle Sap, which feeds the homonymous large lake that occupies the central heart of Cambodia. Around 1 pm (depending on traffic) arrival in Phnom Penh and lunch in a local restaurant on the banks of the Tonle Sap River near its branch. In the afternoon, visit to the most important places in the city. The Royal Palace symbolically overlooks the point where the "4 rivers" of Phnom Penh branch out. It is still today the residence of the King of Cambodia, whose private apartments are separated from the visitable part. Inside there is also the Silver Pagoda, the name given by Westerners to the Royal Temple for its splendid floor entirely made of silver tiles! Not far away is the National Museum where artifacts from the Angkorian and pre-Angkorian periods of Khmer history are exhibited. The last stop is at Wat Phnom, a Buddhist temple connected to the foundation of the city of Phnom Penh in the 14th century. Arrival at the hotel., dinner free PLEASE NOTE:

Auto

Giorno 14 — Phnom Penh → Siem Reap (Angkor)

Breakfast, Around 8 o'clock departure heading north along the state road no. 6 that runs along the eastern side of the large Tonle Sap lake. The green and unspoiled rural landscape is the abundant and undisputed protagonist of the day until reaching the capital city of Kompong Thom after about three hours of travel. Lunch on the banks of the Stung Sen river before taking a detour of about 30 km that stretches out into the open countryside. Soon you will arrive at the archaeological site now known as Sambor Prei Khuk, which coincides with the ancient pre-Angkorian city of Ishanapura. The visit will take place by walking along a path of about 2 km to admire the pre-Angkorian ruins dating back to the 7th and 8th centuries. Some buildings have a unique and original octagonal shape. During the last stretch of the transfer to Siem Reap, another important stop will be made to admire the bridges built at the end of the 12th century by the great King Jayavarman VII, who undertook the construction of a dense road network to connect the various provinces of the Empire. Arrival in Siem Reap is expected in the late afternoon. Accommodation in a hotel., dinner free,

Giorno 15 — Siem Reap (Angkor)

Breakfast, Early in the morning departure for the famous historical site of Angkor. The day will begin with the so-called "Grand Tour" of Angkor. First stop at Prasat Kravan, one of the oldest constructions in Angkor, consisting of 5 aligned towers. A short stop at Srah Srang (the "royal pools") before reaching the area of the immense artificial basin Yasodharatataka (modern name East Baray). A little further south stands the majestic five towers of the State Temple of King Rajendravarman II: Pre Rup, a colossal "mountain temple" with imperial proportions. About 20km further north we find one of the most refined and precious artistic masterpieces that the ancient Khmer have handed down to us. It is a small temple entirely covered with beautiful bas-reliefs. Today the temple is known as Banteay Srei, the "citadel of women". Typical Khmer lunch in a local farmhouse immersed in the Cambodian countryside. The entire afternoon will be dedicated to the wonder par excellence of Angkor, the place that since its rediscovery has sparked the imagination and desire of the Western world: the mythical Angkor Wat. Considered today as one of the most sensational wonders of our planet, this colossal construction holds several records, including the prestige of being the largest religious complex in the world!, dinner free,

Giorno 16 — Siem Reap (Angkor)

Breakfast, Around 8 o'clock departure for a new day of visits to Angkor. The day will begin at Angkor Thom, the gigantic fortified city which will be accessed through the most famous gate: the "South Gate". Inside, there are the "Terrace of the Elephants" and the "Terrace of the Leper King", entirely carved with beautiful bas-reliefs. At the geometric center of Angkor Thom is the famous "Bayon", known worldwide for its countless towers on which giant stone faces are carved. These stunning ruins will be the perfect prelude to the visit of Ta Phrom, famous among international tourists for its wild appearance. Even today, giant trees support themselves on the monastery walls and their mighty roots creep into the gaps between the massive sandstone blocks, creating a mystical combination of art, history, and nature. Lunch at a restaurant in Siem Reap. In the afternoon, the second colossal monastery, known as Preah Khan, will be visited. Its symbolic importance is emphasized by the construction, along its longitudinal axis, of the large artificial basin in the center of which the "baths" were placed, now known as Neak Pean.
