Vietnam Must See – The Essential Things To Do
Hanoi and
Ho Chi Minh are huge bustling cities and we’d like to see some of the attractions.
But I think that we’d love to spend more of our time in the smaller, historic city of
Hoi An, which means ‘Peaceful Meeting Place.”
Chu Chi Tunnels: I think my children are old enough to manage a trip to visit the tunnels, chilling though I’d find them
Water puppet show: sounds a magical experience for any age
The Mekong Delta: we’d love the floating markets and visiting villages, there’s good cycling here too, we read
Halong Bay: it looks stunning, we would love to stay and find quiet places without too many tourists (we did go! Check out our Halong Bay With Kids post here.
Ninh Binh: a boat trip through the caves sounds so interesting and scenic too
Beaches: we love being at the beach so are poring over this article about the Top 10 Beaches in Vietnam.
Snorkelling: a family delight, so I’m investigating trips you can take off Nha Trang and also the Cham Islands on Hoi An
Train trip: I’d love us all to go on an overnight train journey – maybe taking the cushy soft sleeper option though
