Discover Vietnam in 8 Nights: A Budget Itinerary

Vietnam is a land of breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and vibrant culture that beckons every traveler. With 8 nights to explore, you'll dive into the bustling streets of Hanoi, cruise the emerald waters of Halong Bay, and soak in the charm of Hoi An. Imagine wandering through ancient towns, indulging in delicious street food, and discovering hidden gems that few tourists see.

Highlights of the Destination

  • Hanoi's Old Quarter: A labyrinth of narrow streets filled with bustling markets and fragrant street food stalls.
  • Halong Bay: A UNESCO World Heritage site, renowned for its stunning limestone karsts and island-dotted seascapes.
  • Hoi An Ancient Town: A UNESCO-listed gem where time seems to stand still, with beautifully preserved architecture and a vibrant night market.
  • Ho Chi Minh City: A dynamic metropolis that blends history and modernity, home to iconic landmarks like the Notre-Dame Cathedral and Cu Chi Tunnels.

Travel Tips for Vietnam

  • Currency: Vietnamese Dong (VND) is the local currency; always have small bills for street vendors.
  • Transportation: Grab or local taxis are reliable for getting around cities; be cautious of moto-taxis.
  • Street Food: Donโ€™t miss out on trying Pho and Banh Mi from street vendors for an authentic taste.
  • Dress Code: When visiting temples and pagodas, wear modest clothing that covers shoulders and knees.

I recently traveled to Vietnam, and my entire trip was organized by Pick your Trails, and I must say it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The team managed everything perfectly right from the beginning of the journey until the very end making the trip smooth, well-planned, and completely stress-free. What truly stood out was their support during unexpected situations. We faced a few challenges during the trip, but the Pick your Trails team never ignored our concerns. They were always available, responded quickly, and made sure every issue was resolved efficiently. Their dedication and responsibility towards travelers made us feel safe and well taken care of throughout the journey. The planning, coordination, communication, and on-ground support were all excellent. Thanks to their professionalism and commitment, we were able to fully enjoy our Vietnam trip without worries. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and well-organized travel agency. Thank you, Pick your Trails, for creating such wonderful memories!

We booked our Vietnam trip through Pick Your Trails and overall had a really good experience. The planning and customization process was smooth, and we felt very comfortable throughout. There were a couple of minor issues from the local ground team in Vietnam, like missing timely updates and the Ho chi min guide not being very engaging (though he explained things well). However, the Pick Your Trails team was always responsive whenever we needed help. Special mention to Rajalakshmi, who kept checking on us throughout the trip she genuinely felt like a friend who cared. Mentioning the small drawbacks only for improvement, because overall their service was excellent. Highly recommended!
