As unique holiday experiences go, you’d be hard pressed to find a more meaningful one.
Days 6-9 – Lanterns of historic Hoi An
After your time in Hue, you will be collected from your hotel and transferred to the ancient city of Hoi An. An atmospheric, magical old town famous for its lantern-filled laneways.

Pick up the ingredients at the local market and cook up a storm for a tasty lunch!
Days 9-13 – Kick back by the beach
Next you will be transferred to the airport for your flight to Nha Trang, on arrival you’ll be transferred to your In Style beach resort.

Sway in a hammock, snorkel coral reefs and sink your toes into the soft white sands of Nha Trang on this luxurious, tropical getaway. Today you’ll wave goodbye to Vietnam as you’re transferred to the airport for your international flight home.
