Vietnam is a country that grabs you by the senses and never lets go. The motorbike-choked streets of Hanoi’s Old Quarter, the emerald karst towers of Ha Long Bay rising from still water like a Chinese scroll painting, the imperial tombs and citadels of Huế, the lantern-lit alleys of Hoi An, the tunnels of Cu Chi where Viet Cong fighters lived and fought underground, the terraced rice paddies of Sapa cascading down mountainsides in shades of green that have no English names — and everywhere, the food. Vietnamese cuisine is arguably the most refined street food culture on earth: phở ladled from cauldrons at 5am, bánh mì assembled on the back of a bicycle, bún chả grilled over charcoal in a Hanoi alley. This is a country that transformed war into resilience, French colonialism into architectural charm, and poverty into one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia.

RJ Travel operates group tours and private tours across Vietnam, from Hanoi’s Old Quarter and Ha Long Bay’s limestone labyrinth to the DMZ and Huế’s Imperial City, Hoi An’s lantern-lit old town, the Central Highlands, Ho Chi Minh City’s war museums and street food, and the Mekong Delta’s floating markets. Our itineraries include minority village treks in the north, cooking classes in Hoi An, motorbike food tours in Saigon, and overnight junk cruises through Ha Long Bay.

Whether you’re drawn by the sight of a thousand limestone pillars emerging from morning mist on Ha Long Bay, the taste of the best phở of your life eaten on a plastic stool at 6am in Hanoi, or the profound quiet of a war cemetery in the DMZ, our Vietnam tours are for travellers who want a country that overwhelms beautifully.
